You mistake the frustration, its because we feel top 4 is not enough and that we are a top 2 side. Please don't get all negative about the owners.

I wouldn't have made that substitution as Tevez was one of the few capable of creating something out of nothing, but he was badly off the pace.
Mancini had already brought RSC on. I know I know, he's shite, but it wasnt like he was bringing off our only striker.

RSC brought great attitude and energy even though he wasn't effective....
Today, Tevez couldn't have hit the broadside of a barn with a 747.
how many shots on goal? 19? maybe 5 or 7 players shooting? jesus......

Booing both Barry* and the manager for that is fucking pathetic & disgraceful.
Really don't like the way our support is headed, thousands of fans leaving before the final whistle instead of urging the team on pretty much summed us up since Mansour arrived at the club.

Totally agree
is it just me or do we and the team have a bit of a Tevez fixation? - I mean the way it seems that everything has to go through him - every time any player gets around the 18 yard line it seems almost like they feel obliged to give him the ball - maybe some players need to take on a bit more reponsibility

The stats show that without Tevez we have performed badly.
However, this fixation with relying on Tevez every match is starting to make us look incredibly one dimensional.

Top 4 Side, tell me when we finished in the Top 4 ?????? Top 2 Ha ha We cant even beat Brum at Home!
The way i saw it was either Jo for Tevez - which no doubt people would still moan at.
Or how he did it, which i thought was RSC upfront with Johnson and Silva being able to stay committed to the attacks while also allowing milner and Y toure to push up more by putting an extra player in midfield.
Just because a striker hasn't come on doesn't make it a non attacking substitution. With all that we also had Zab and Boateng pushing forward. And as already mentioned Tevez despite all his effort was not good enough today (same as many others)
I also recall hearing Tevez wasn't 100% fit for the Derby and im just wondering if he is not fully fit?

You do realise that the Birmingham players couldnt believe their eyes when tevez went off and a defensive midfielder with no pace came on to replace him.
What a boost for their weary bodies that was.
absolutely shocking sub, even worse than the Zab one.
