Try 101greatgoals in an hour or so
Well, outside of City, his record is pretty abysmal. With City, he's done well-ish (outside of the whole Tevez affair) managing the egos. But even then, his failure to make a significant dent in Europe is really really poor for someone who's basically had unlimited funds for the past five, six years. The fact that Mourinho won the Champions League at Inter after just a season (and completely gutting the spine Mancini built) hardly helps either.
That really is like a Capital One knockoff of Aguerrooo.

I know people cite Porto, but I doubt Mourinho would ever go to a club that doesn't have major spending power. For all the problems with Wenger, he consistently over-achieves with limited resources. If their circumstances were reversed, I wonder how they'd do

I quite like that. Reminds me of the David Caruso 'fuck you'
Lets be fair to City, JM7's been out for a while. It'd be like Barca without Messi, Madrid without Ronaldo, or God without Jesus
There's no fucking bullying. There's people overreacting and there's DC doing his usual PR bullshit that draws attention and people call him off, that's it.
I have nothing against dc; I just thought he was panicking this time and it was funny. That's it.
Crazy really that Arsenal actually does have a chance for the title this year. Both Manchester clubs have been so bad...

Well at Inter, he didn't spend a whole lot of money the year he won the Champions League. granted that was partly because he had a top spine built by Mancini beforehand (who had spent loads of money), part because Barca spent 40m + Eto'o on Ibra, but still, pretty impressive feat financially. I still think that Inter team is one of the most impressive teams in the CL of recent memory.
On Wenger, I do have to wonder—is it limited resources, or is it stubbornness? He sold Song this season; didn't need to, didn't buy a replacement... so far, it's been a fantastic decision, but should injury crisis hit, it'll be season over all over again. But both Mou and Wenger are fantastic managers; certainly on opposite sides of the spectrum. Someone like SAF is really the only one I can think of who is able to bring those two skillsets (developing young players + immediate success) together over long periods of time.
It was both an inexcusable display of disrespect to the greatest manager of the last 20 years, and vicariously orgasmic. Something about seeing young Jonjo, a player I already admired, telling Ferguson to fucking stick it had me applauding in the heat of the moment. Glad he apologised though.

6-0 against Wolves
some decent goals, Bertrand, Piazon, Azpili and Romeu were excellent. Good to see Marin too he was lively. Nice header from Torres shame about his other miss.
Turnbull didn't convince me at all still and he only had to distribute the ball on a few occasions.
I had a great seat too will upload a picture or two later.

I hope thats not true. Certainly City as a club and most of its fans have been very classy when thinking of other clubs hardships imho.

Thought it would be Martin Petrov with some revelations. Unpleasant surprise.
Disgraceful from those who chanted it

I don't see what Ferguson's reputation has to do with anything. Another reason Lawrenson can fuck off. Do Prestonites like him? Somebody has to
oh for fuck sake
It certainly shows balls that he isn't intimidated by Ferguson.I don't see what Ferguson's reputation has to do with anything. Another reason Lawrenson can fuck off. Do Prestonites like him? Somebody has to
Nope, despise him. The North West in general seems to fucking hate the man. A few mates in my house can't understand why I launch into a tirade of of expletives whenever he pops up on the telly, or during commentary. Class A prick.
Our Captain. He has leukemia. We applaud on the 19th minute (his number) by way of support. Sometimes opposition clubs & supporters join in, its a nice gesture when they do, but not a big deal if they dont.
Every club has idiots. The ones chanting never your fault in Anfield, even if they meant it to Liverpool's record were idiots during a match dedicated to Hillsborough.
That's horrible though if those let him die chants were actually being sang.
I like his dry sense of humour when he is co-commentating. He is one of the better football pundits but that isn't really a compliment.I don't see what Ferguson's reputation has to do with anything. Another reason Lawrenson can fuck off. Do Prestonites like him? Somebody has to
Agree, he can take a joke.
He gives and he gets
Thank you. Like I said, I don't take anything to heart.
City website will have them soon, maybe tomorrow morning.
I'd be so disappointed if this is true. Especially as City fans at the game and MCFC themselves said the majority of fans joined in the clapping the Villa fans do.

Here is a guy who I speak to and he's honest and a good lad.
"THERE WAS NO CHANTS ABOUT PETROV TONIGHT. Sick rumour made up to bad name our fans, its disgusting. Some people have no respect at all."

I know. It always makes me uncomfortable when either set of fans are criticised under a blanket statement that fails to seperate those who do chant this shite, and those who don't. There is a middle ground though which is too big, the people who don't chant, but stand by with their hands by their sides while others make a mockery of the fanbase
Lawro is the absoolute worst. He does TV3 commentary, so there is no escaping him for me.

I see. Shameful if City fans did that. It's only a game.
It would be, but to be honest judging from the Villa forums, nobody beleives this would come from many City fans. They are widely regarded as classy.
Yep, you are done.

Do Newcastle take the league cup seriously? What sort of lineup can we expect from them tomorrow?

Couldn't disagree more, with either statement.
Lawrenson's a JT, a shite commentator, and a shitter pundit
I'd like to think it's not true because the majority of the tweets are from United fans who are giving it the opportunistic "I bet [the media] won't report this!" angle, but it looks as though the reports originated from Villa tweeters quite a bit before.

Maybe it was just the bluemoon fans who attended. 80% of them can fuck off, and I mean that seriously.
Check my post again. Updated with a view of a City fan actually at the game.
I don't understand, why is he so bad compared to Savage, Dublin, Hansen, Townsend and Shearer?
Don't tell me what I wrote is bannable offense?
No, I was referring to you being blown out of the Capital One Cup by El Hadji Diouf and Rodolph Austin.

I'm happy families known the truth now, but I hope it's not going to be in every OP. If it is, I hope every other football tragedy gets it's recognition too.
Yeah, its embarrassing, however, the worst of it all is what its going to do to our confidence...
Damn it all to hell!

If Moyes can impress on the team that the cup exit could be good for the league, you'll be fine.
@Chriswok, the Hillsbrorough campaign is still looking for justice. I'd say it perhaps needn't be so prominent in all future OTs, buts its not completely equatable with most other football tragedies
You'll be fine. Oviedo had a meagre game, and that Junior kid was fucking shit. Must be infuriating, I watched Wednesday at the weekend and despite them losing, Barkley was really good.
