Wasn't Pelegrini the Villareal manager on that night?

No; Juan Carlos Garrido. Pellegrini had been gone a couple of years at that stage.

Thought it was Garrido but not sure, think Pellers was well gone by then though.

Even so, strange how things change eh.

Sorry, just repeated you there. That'll teach me not to reply before reading the rest of the thread.

Legend in my eyes.
He tore down that banner in 2011.
Grazie Roberto.

 

[blackley macca]

Thanks Bobby you gave me my best City memory after watching a lifetime of shit. Always be appreciated and remembered.

Seems he was sacked under personal reasons rather than footballing which is sad.

 

[Pam]

Wherever he goes and whatever he does, he will always be "Our Bobby" to me.

Priceless. Money can't buy those moments. Not even £7000.

He spoke very briefly today to Sky in Italy. When asked about City he just said, "I won't speak about City...". Not sure how to take that. Very coy on his own future and said he'll see what pops up (but spoke very positively of Roma...), also praised Benitez.

 

[decmancity]

Non-disclosure agreement well and truly in place.
I don't want to start arguments but I believe that there was a lot of stuff going on within the club and it is really just best if the club doesn't talk about it and Mancini doesn't I think.

Was watching videos of the QPR match after today's win over Everton, letting myself dream of another glorious title win.

I then realized I really miss having this suave motherf*cker around.

That being said, Pellegrini is great too and probably better for the club since Mancini wasn't a very well liked man at the club in his last weeks.

Thanks for the memories Bob. You were great. <3
