Kiev is in a time zone whic is three hours ahead of the UK so the players body clocks will have to adjust to that and then readjust when we get back. I'm sure Shearer and his allies took thins into consideration.

Ukraine is 2 hours ahead of GMT (Russia is +3). In a case like this the squad will operate on UK time and won't even bother adjusting their watches. The game kicked off at 9.45 pm local time but as far as City were concerned it was a 7.45 pm kick off as usual.
 
Anyway. Back to the controversy and it's outcome. Playing three days after their last game ( with a team of a similar number of changes) didn't help Arselona much did it? And this came without the disruption of a long haul flight. And what if we hadn't dissed the FA Cup and we had played a strong team at the expense of risking a defeat in this round? TalkManure would be having a right old rant at how City dissed the CL thus risking England's Euro coefficient which might result in the PL losing a fourth entry into the competition. At least tonight's result should keep that subject off the airwaves for another year. Pellegrini isn't my cup of tea but at least he stuck by his word and I respect him for that.
 
Goldstein is sounding very bitter, how I would wish that someone would phone in and ask him that if he feels that we devalued the FA Comp. What would be his opinion about when Furgie refused to play in the comp and play in South America instead.
 
Rather than hold a full blown conversation on a match that has been played and gone. Why not talk about the brilliant performance we put in tonight and the fact that we played a team that has not lost to a English team since 2012, a engish team that looks like it's going to be the only team to qualify for the next round. I guess that would be to much to ask for, silly me.
