Gutted at final whistle but proud

Not much goal mouth excitement, but nevertheless a fantastic game of football where defences just about held the forwards at bay.

Great quality and intensity to both teams games, and there is very little that separates the teams.

Well Done to Utd for never giving up, but it was very hard on City

Bit disappointed to read some of the posts on this message board. But to be expected

I think you'll find that most of those posts come from people who don't attend the games (check out the times of the posts), don't know much about football, and don't know what it measn to support our team.

Yes but we fookin gave the ball away - why the fook with less than a minute to go did Bellamy try that fookin cross field ball - why - this was a must not lose game for City and a must win game for United.

Been in fookin tears again - why the fook do they do this to me
 
Thought it was a poor quality match from both sides, far below the standard of the cup match at COMS. So I wouldnt say well played, individually and collectively we were poor IMO. A point would have been a decent result from an average performance. But it wasnt to be.

Spot on m8.
 
Very fine lines in football. We could be sitting here saying we earnt a well-fought point today against a determined United side - whilst the exact same could have been said for the away game. Instead, were all gutted because for the third time in a season (never known anything like it) theyve done us with seconds to play. Some put it down to luck, but its the frequency that United do it that makes you realise that they really do have such a great mentality. Momentary lapses have cost us DEARLY this season (Burnley, Ireland at The Swamp, Bellamy today); but you cant keep doing it at this level - all it takes is a calm head, get it in the corner, see out the game and were all optimistic about the result.

Today was a proper top 4 game, and a measure of fergies respect of us was shown in the formation he set out with; If theres one gripe with Mancinis tactics, for me, would be that he left it far to late to try and nullify scholes' impact on possession.

They created the better chances, as a unit we were sound, but our "Big 4" up top really didnt play well at all today.

Bad day, bitterly dissapointed - a hell of a long way to go though.
