Some of you should pay attention to the fact that the pitch is not suiting our slow passing game.

SWP 's control is exageratedly bad due to said pitch. Im sure AJ will replace him. A few crosses to RSC and play a bit more direct. In fact like Sunderland are doing.

Fucking David Pleat ... keeps mentioning money "Mancini is very well paid to sort this out"

"these players are paid a lot of money"

Cooont!

How much did you pay that prossie David you tw@t

He aint wrong though is he , surely City fans would be right in expecting a little more than that first half nightmare ?

it would be ok if for example we played negative football but then totally dominated the game and came out clear winners.....whats not ok is to continue to play negative football that leads to us scraping a win or winning by default due to the other teams ineptitude

Games not over yet.

If the second half is like the first I'll be as critical as anyone.

If we come out different, get the 3 points I don't really give a toss how bad the first half was.

as fans, we shouldn't be biting our nails in the last 10 mins of any game...we are passed that now with the players we have

hughes would have this game sewn up by now.

It'd be 6-6 at half-time. ;)

Ha ha, we'd be 3-3 all by now.

starting swp instead of johnson was a bad move to start with, bringing johnson on now would mean we only have 1 sub left to change the game later on. Get yer boots on Dennis we need ya

I reckon we wont be hearing from Ian Wright for a good few weeks...

Got to agree with this. Dreadful first half but we have 45 minutes.

Why are we so wank at the back even though we have such a 'defensively dominant' midfield of Barry, De Jong, and Zab?

 

[Andouble]

we will win.

that pitch is like a fucking cow field!!!
