No City sub heard Tevez refuse to play....

[cleavers]

is it true that they didn't even go over and clap the traveling blues?

No its not true, most did, a few didn't, same as every other game this season.

i think the people who don't take the fact's on board(he's 100% guilty and a complete twat) are the kind of people who believe in conspiracy theories ie 9/11 wasn't muslim fanatic's

Anyone who saw Roberto`s interview straight after the game

FORZA MANCIO

Agreed. It was immediately obvious something had happened. There was an edge to his voice even before questioned on the substitutions. I thought he was either going to start crying or tear the reporters head off. I congratulate him for holding it together under the most intense pressure. Would have been easy to say 'fuck the lot of you' and just storm off. I'm with Bobby all the way.

This reminds me of the plot to the film "Scent of a Woman", the gist of which is that there is no honour in ratting out your colleagues. I would not ask, let alone expect a player to hang a fellow player out to dry no matter what they've done. Tevez alone is reposnsible for this and the club shouldn't put otehr players into an invidious position. Enough staff were present along with the pictures we all saw which should be sufficient to deal with the matter.

Wait till it's in the Old Bailey, if that's where it's heading. Will his team-mates perjure themselves in his defence?

I'm getting sick to death of all the Tevez comments.
Let HR and the legal team at City do their work. Nobody actually knows what happened, it's all hearsay
In City we trust - the outcome will be the correct one.

After De Jong went on, I was watching Tevez warming up, right at the other end, wondering why he hadn't come on.

Mancini came out into the box and, to me, it looked like he was waving to Tevez to come back. I thought at the time that Tevez seemed to be ignoring him.

Next time I looked Tevez was sat down on the bench.

So it could well be that Tevez had refused to go on prior to the TV pictures of him on the bench appearing not to want to warmup again.

So KIA swarms about yesterday trying to get his 'pals' in the press to hook up some proPABA da and ends up with Oliver hardy writing this drivel?

Footballers have almost as great an aversion to the concept of "grassing" than do villains. It was never likely that the subs would "give evidence" against Tevez.

Provided that none of them actually support his version of events its not a big deal.
