Mancini Breaking News Part 4

[Esteban de la Sexface]

An organisation that didn't go and get the manager of the 2011/2012 premier league champions the players he identified to kick the club on to compete on two fronts.

An organisation that let him be dismantled by journos the night of an F.A cup final loss.

An organisation that will replace him with a dour tactician who hasn't won a trophy in a decade.

A manager that had the number of Sir Alex Ferguson. Who won the league ahead of the schedule set out for him by the very same organisation.

Put opinions on the manager aside, is everyone at least in agreement that this fucking stinks?

Again it begs the question, why would they do that if everything is rosey in the garden?
Save your bile until the facts come out.

The facts will probably never come out and even if they did, those who have canonised Mancini would just refuse to believe them anyway.

does this work in reverse? I'll believe the facts. Facts are irrefutable.
If Mancini is proved right it is probably more devastating for the club. Either way it is destabalizing.

Not a fact, my opinion, the club are f*cking this up and it does not look good.

what the hell are the club waiting for?If they want to sack him do it,sort the contract stuff after(or is that naive of me?) put him and us out of his bloody misery.A year after winning the title they have hung him out to dry and humilated him at wembley,fuck off club and sort it out

rant over

contract stuff before sacking him

pay off will be legally sorted before he moves on as it would be madness not do it

I think that if Mancini doesn't handle this with dignity the facts might come out. If he starts attacking the club the club will sanction a few leaks or interviews which will put him back in his box.

This is what I want us to avoid: a messy sacking. I hope a deal is done, a payoff agreed and everyone agrees a formal or informal non-disclosure.

I can't see how any party will gain from a war of words.

Saw that. Honestly, do some twats not think before they act on this stuff?

Even City couldn't sack the manager a year ago to the day he won the league, could they?

I just don't see what the club were supposed to do. "hey, roberto, we're going to fire you in a week and a half, but please do a good job coaching until then."

It's unreasonable. The plan all along was probably to wait until the end of the season and have a "process" whereby they'd fire him. Maybe before NY trip just to spare him that farce. The news got out early and the club should be concerned about the manner of that happening, but once it got out they can't really back him and then fire him in a week. They can't realistically pre-announce his firing. Yeah, it got ugly, but it realistically got ugly the second the news picked up steam, at that point there was realistically no way to put the cat back in the bag, so to speak.

You've got it bang on mate.

There is nothing the club could do differently about this. It's just moral high grounding and blame gaming which diverts from the key fact.

The hierarchy have decided that Mancini isn't the man for the club. A brave and, I believe, correct decision.

I personally like what Mancinin has brought during his tenure but I accept now that he may have forced himself out on a number of levels. I think his card may have been marked pre-season tbh.I do think they, the club, could have had a meeting with Pellegrini's agent in a less public place, kept things under wraps better and worked harder to allow him to leave in a less shitty way than this, if he is to go now.
I don't think it reflects well on us as a club and I think there will be a significant amount of negative press resulting. It leaves me with a bad taste, soley for the reason that he brought us out of the wilderness and gave us never to be forgotten memories. That in itself means he should be treated with a little more respect in my book.

Bile ??

May have been the wrong word to use in response EDLS, but some on here are getting hysterical.
I have read posts that the owner is a "soulless ****" and that posters are done with City if Mancini goes.
Get a fucking grip everyone, and wait till we know what has been going on.

Even Inter Milan fans think he is slightly overrated. And he won them more trophies than he did for City. His CV certainly did benefit from the Calciopoli scandal. He is rated way too high by some here. While Pellegrini is being unfairly undermined.
