The club most definitely dropped a bollock in the summer by not getting shut of Carlos, at any price we could get, although I can't see that any of this particular blame lies at Bob's door.
Pretty sure that Bob would have been desperate to see the back of the troublesome fucker yet publically would have to say he that he'd be happy for him to stay if a move didn't happen.
As much as this sideshow is irritating, I do think we are keeping it seperate from the main goings on of the first team and in reality we only have to stumble through the next 6 weeks or so before we can unload the twat.
I'm not trying lay blame at anyone's door but Carlos'. I was merely making the point, albeit, rather facetiously as I was talking to the resident Alpha Male that maybe just maybe we could've seen this coming and taken the hit in the summer.
Mancini's handled this situation impeccably since Munich and has come out of it with dignity and smelling of roses. I even have no qualms with what he said after the match. He wore his heart on his sleeve and showed how passionately he gives a fuck. Top marks on every front.
Another shocking anti Mancini diatribe from Billy Shears...;- )
