Should the club stay silent or fightback?

[mike channon´s windmill]

The first part of the fightback should begin this transfer window
Let´s make a statement and how about putting in false bids for players wanted by our rivals to bump up the price? That would really piss on their chips

Take the ban and get on with it. Show the fuckers they can try but they won't bring us down.

Stick De Jong back in front of the defence in a 5 man midfield, play Aguero up top and grind out the results in the next few games playing more like we did last season. Show how we can do it.

Fuck em all!

We need to adopt a seige mentality but behind closed doors. As much as we disagree with refereeing decisions, the FA control the sport that we play. We have to rise above it. I hope that it bonds the players even tighter together and that we as fans can be stronger together. We stayed together under much worse circumstances in 1998. Let's do it again. Whatever goes on in the press has nothing to do with about how we feel about our club. Equally, if we're good enough as a team, we will win it regardless of some dodgy decisions. And make no mistake about it WE ARE GOOD ENOUGH!

I'm confused as to why a player who has been found guilty of violent conduct yet somehow scoring the winning penalty in a very important game for you would further the theory of this agenda. You've had some crap decisions no doubt but what team hasn't?

I'd say if Lescott had got the book thrown at him then you would have genuine cause for annoyance but as it stands a Liverpool-esque protest wouldn't look good.

With 494 post on a CITY forum I thought you might talk a little sense but obviously not. For your information Ballotelli has not yet been found guilty. This is despite a media uproar not seen since someone invaded Poland. Our point, the thing that upsets City fans is the fact that the referee clearly saw the incident and decided nothing was wrong. Now becasue $ky and the rest have spent all yesterday going on about it he suddenly didn't see it. I accept that Adebayor was wrong a couple of seasons ago when he stamped on an Arse head. On that occassion the referee stated he saw it and did not see anything wrong but was TOLD to go away and re think his decision. A few years before Ben thatcher committed a foul and was immediately booked. In every other instance the League state they cannot act if the referee has taken action but not in this case, he was later banne for 8 matches. All I want is consistency from the League.

I agree we should all stick together siege mentality and all that but weve no chance just had acity fan on talk shite saying hes disgusted with Balotelli and hes not that good a player anyway as you only get ten mins out of him a match ffs. These so called city fans who phone shite programmes like Brazils slagging the club off should get the fuck out of it and go down the swamp we dont want you

Mounting an appeal will do us absolutely no good , no matter who we get involved ... the FA have already made up their mind , and will once again will back the referee up ..... we'd only run the risk of having any ban increased.

I get what you mean but do you think that most of these muppets that phone up go to the matches or that they are mostly just idiots from "the general public" as Alan Partridge would say? Not that I'm saying that if you don't go to matches you are an idiot. We can get behind the team at the matches and make all the difference. Of course, there will always be some dickeads out of a large group of people but as a whole we can stick together.

Why not appeal....How can they prove the act was intentional....

Can't be arsed reading 11 pages, but correct me if I'm wrong, ballotelli has been charged and as it currently stands has NOT been found guilty of anything.

the way the fa works,if your charged then basically your found guilty unless you appeal then you are found guilty.
