Nicely written, articulate, but please credit fellow blues across all sections of our support, with the brains to think for themselves.
Certainly, that it may represent whatever majority.
Opinions are generally formulated well before the media get the chance to kick City when they are down.
They are formed on the field of play, there for all to see, backed up by a set of poor results in a particular competition, which has been the current topic for debate.
I don't consider Bobby a bad manager, but I certainly don't believe him to be a great one, as many seem to have already bracketed him.
I saw them same old arguments from those who could see that Hughes was delaying the inevitable, that he simply wasn't good enough for the next step.
People would cry, but you never get anywhere with sacking managers, he got us to the Carling Cup semi-final, etc.
Well, we certainly got somewhere by sacking him, an upgrade was available which helped our wealth to realise an FA Cup and Premier League title.
It's a little close-minded to suggest that Bobby is the full stop to this great story.
He's simply a chapter, a momentous one, but I think we are far from being a best-seller under his tenure.
He thrives on creative tension, an autocratic style, but even Ferguson has had to accept the realities of the modern game and adapt.
Simply my opinion, nothing more, but from what I have seen so far, there is a very strong likelihood we will end this season with nothing.
The Barcelonisation of our club, behind the scenes, I can't help but feel and even hope this whole 'project' set up for Pep Guardiola to become our manager one day.
