Our support on here

Nice post pal.

Everyone entitled to an opinion , even if it is borderline insanity.

They have obviously never seen you in full rant mode ;)


It was much worse on here under Pearce btw.

What has happened over the last decade is expectation has increased beyond sensibility. We are in effect victims of our own success. Where as once a QF appearance in the League Cup was seen as an achievement, now a 1-1 draw in the CL is seen as a disaster.

There is also the pressure applied on us to win the CL, not just from fans of other clubs but from the vulture media who love to pick on the bones of another failure and there is also a desire in the media to see Pep fail. That sells copy and feeds the frenzy of an anti City lobby that has already found us guilty of cheating.

Like my good friend Mr T Balls states it is not going to stop posters spouting nonsense, baseless stupidity and ridiculous insane shit.

That though as a member of this forum is their right and as long as it conforms to the code pf conduct I am afraid we have to put up with it whether we agree or not as everyone's opinion is equally valid.

Good post - paras 2 and 3 nail it. And I think that reporting has an impact on all of us - feeds anxiety.

These are the greatest times our club will ever have so anyone moaning about them is in for a rude awakening as it only goes one way from here!

I think that’s why there is a fair amount of anxiety kicking about at the moment. A realisation that perhaps the summit of Everest has been reached and we are just on the other side. Fortunately those climbing to the summit are still not as good as us yet when we play to our full potential so there is some hope that we will have the final push back up to the top! Fingers crossed.

Interesting analogy Millwall.
On that basis the dippers have run out of oxygen tanks to inhale.

I’ve genuinely never seen the support on here be so negative towards the players and manager and I’ve posted on here for 15 years. It’s got to the point where 1-1 draws away in the CL are being treated by many as if we’ve just lost to bottom of the league. It used to be the match threads but now even the post match threads are just as bad.

People have become so accustomed to an elite football brand that anything below it is now leading to bizarre suggestions that the manager who brought that brand of football should now leave the club.

We’re 2nd in the league (2 points off top), in the 5th round of the cup (beat Chelsea & Arsenal) and in a great position to go through to the quarter finals of the CL. If I was reading some of the comments on here completely blind, I’d think we were having the season Liverpool are having. That’s the level of shit that realistically should lead to some of the comments I’ve seen on here.

You can’t be great every single year. It’s impossible. It’s why we’re the only team since 2009 to retain the title (x2) and why most managers get sacked the year after just one title is won. To win back to back titles for the second time in 5 years and to then be in our current position in the 6th year is immense.

Seriously guys, I can’t believe the absolute misery and unhappiness. If you’re so miserable now then you’re going to be in for a rude awakening when Pep eventually leaves and we have odd ‘really’ bad seasons like Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal all do. Back the manager and team because they’ll come up trump in the end. They always do and if they don’t win the big prizes, they’ll come back again and win them next year.

Edit - I expect the miserable sods to carry on their spoilt brat support act in this very thread :)

As much as I agree with your sentiment,people are entitled to their opinion .You don’t have to agree with it,it’s what makes us football fans debate.If we all agreed this forum would not exist.And for a point I’m not a plastic just not got home fron Leipzig.Go to the match and observe people discussing and disagreeing.That’s football I posted earlier that we need to put things into perspective,however we are not at our best a nd on that I include my post spellchecked by pilsner

Top post….especially about the pressure from the media etc, it’s why we as City fans want to stick it to em so badly, it’s what makes every win, every trophy, having Pep and the big name signings so much sweeter
