Mancini Thread (no City stuff)

[nijinsky's fetlocks]

Re: Mancini Thread

Pretty sad that so called Blues are still trying to dig up dirt on Roberto. This thread has been useful for updates on how Roberto has been doing at Gala but nothing much else.

Keep bringing up the Cup Final when leading journalists had been briefed by the Club that Mancini was being sacked anyway shows how little you know about
Management.

Keep getting excited about New York City and Melbourne Heart - some of us love City. Roberto is a winner who broke Fergie in the title winning season. Man management probably was his weakness but people who are taken in by propaganda from club employees with a track record of bugging their own staff need to get out a bit more often.

Good luck Roberto. You changed our lives for the better!!

Excellent post Tim.
And your words sum up the thoughts of a lot of true blue City fans.

Why do I have to have liked Mancini to be a true City fan?
I fucking hate this barometers of City fan

Nobody said that - he said Tim's post spoke for a lot of fans, not all of them, which is correct.
But feel to be offended-by-proxy for no good reason if it makes you happy.
Bring along the usual suspects if you like, and then you can all have a predictable circle jerk of angry haters stuck in Groundhog Day.

Im not offended by proxy im not even angry I just dont like these little barometers which apparently make you a true blue City fan just like nutter raghunter earlier. I have never really been a hater of Mancini either and I certainly will not be having a circle jerk over it nor was I trying to provoke the never ending debate on it.
As stated I just dont like the true blue barometers, now reading it back it would appear I did misread his post so I was wrong but don't try and lump me in to a certain group.
I have my own Blue Cockney Wanker group I don't need another group

In fairness, you rather lumped yourself into said group without any help from me.
I don't like this 'Biggest Blue Top Trumps' either, but I don't think TGR was doing that.
I do like the idea of a Blue Cockney Wanker group though.
Is it just you and peoffrey?

Re: Mancini Thread

Can't wait to see him back at the Bridge. I don't think he's a good manager but he seemed to work for us and I would have given him another year, hindsight is a wonderful thing.

If we had beaten Wigan would he have stayed? Or was his card marked from the start of April?

From what I gather his cards had been marked for a while. The formal decision to sack him was taken in March but I think the decision in people's minds was taken before then.

Yes I did indeed do that
Peoffrey is a Manc so he cant join my group.
I think Markt is thinking he might want to jump on board but im not letting JCL's get in either. If I change my rules I may take on some other people but I quite like it being a private members club of 1

As late as March you think? If I had to guess I'd say the performances against Ajax will have made up the mind of guys like Txiki and Ferran in early winter.

I'd keep it that way if I were you mate - small but select.
And you tend to win any votes that the club may hold.
As for re-election, it's a doddle.
Go for quality over quantity.
Oh, and fuck Markt85 off, as he smells of pie mash and wee.

That's what I was implying. The formal decision (i.e. owner agreement, board discussion, etc.) was taken between the Newcastle & United games I believe. So April rather than March.

But the thinking had certainly started to crystallise before then.

Sorry yeah - having re-read your post I see that's kind of what you were implying. Last season really was the long kiss goodnight.

Re: Mancini Thread

I hate these self important forum dwelling cunts with post counts in the tens of thousands who besmirch the memory of the great Roberto Mancini - a man who helped bring us unbelievably brilliant days that we'd waited so long for.

Get over your fucking selves and get the fuck outside and talk to some actual people ffs
