Mancini Breaking News

[uwe_returns]

We are making the same mistake that chelsea have made.

Too much focus on the champions league. That's a quirky competition that flash-in-the-pans can do well in. Bread and butter is the league, Mancini brought us that, and if he was given his targets....well who knows.

Undermined by those he served so well. That Vimeo vid sums it up. City are more than the sum of its parts, the moments shared with roberto are why he deserves respect and dignity. Shamefully he is being afforded little of both.

Decent read from Martin Samuel

Typical ripe and steaming plucked out of my backside journalism.

Samuels has actually been one of the few journos who have been supportive of City. Also have a look further down the piece where he slags off Gill and FFP.

as ever with Martin Samuel a good read (hate his paper, but not him) - the more thought provoking article is the one that follows it about the effects of ffp

And still the club say nothing. THis whole mess is getting ridiculous. The journos are having a field day at our expense, nearly all have written bobbys epitaph including fucking alan hansen when they are all basically guessing. The club have said nothing which apart from pissing bobby off , and a lot of us, means that the press can basically say what they want. It maybe that we are changing manager, but the stony silence coming from city Is the biggest cause of this whole shitstorm. It saddens me because yet again the club that i have loved for my entire life through thick and thin are being dragged through the mud. This whole episode needs sorting now and i mean today , one way or another city please sort it out.

Regardless of who works in the media, city just keep giving the press the copy! Mancini is sacked end of and its time to get our PR into overdrive. Lets not end the year in an anguish !

Very unprofessional. We deserve every column inch in every paper where we are getting slated today. Get a grip city.

Assuming that's the article I read earlier advocating the football genius of Curbishley and Pardew, i'll beg to differ. We should have handled it better, Pellegrini may not be the right man, those two definitely aren't.

So if we appointed Martinez, much loved by the press, what would they then do? How could they go on to criticise someone they have been saluting for many years?

Our pr dept can only act when briefed.

If don't get any confirmation by the club today, surely, we must get it tomorrow that the Norwich game will be his last game.
