I didn't go today, I have family stuff to do, if I don't make it to a game I will say so.

You have a problem with that?
....


Haha this is great coming from the person who makes comments every day on our board about people who don't attend games without a seconds thought for people's personal circumstances. Maybe you'll think twice now.

Not sure why you'd be on here in that situation but each to their own

City fans have always been a joke post Oil money, Apart from the die-hard City fans, the ones that went to see their team even when they were sh/t.

Spoilt, self-entitled, bandwagon, gloryhunting cnutts

You do realise that's most of us?

When we didn't challenge for the league under Mancini in the second season, we were criticised for still having a "small" club mentality for being happy with it.

Now we have a manager that has lost ten games in the PL alone, ruined our defence that was the best in the league for three years running and has managed one win against a top eight side all season and its "entitlement" that we are now accused of.

The truth is either way, people would criticise regardless because it seems to be the way people like to get their kicks on a forum.

I'm assuming people don't actually believe the rubbish of saying things like "classless" and "soulless" about a different teams support, and realise that all are essentially identical. If they do then that's even more depressing to be honest.

Isn't Pel their second most successful manager as well?

What a way to treat a club legend.

He's had a bit more help than most to be fair Darren!

Some optimistic comments on here regarding Loz's ability to think and learn from his mistakes.

I don't want to say this to wum City fans and I don't think they are bad people for what happened today, but yeah it was harsh on Pellegrini, I felt sorry for him.

Even the Liverpool fans showed appreciation for Gerrard who was a domestic failure over a much larger time frame

I was at the game and was one who stayed after the final whistle. Was disappointed at the number of fans who left at the final whistle. Not exactly expecting them to give the team or Pellegrini a rousing reception, but staying even if just to give a sense of acknowledgement to the guy would have been much more fitting than simply leaving.

I know Pellegrini personally, so maybe i'm a little biased in that respect, but he genuinely is a nice guy and even though City haven't pushed on from his first season with us (CL semi-final notwithstanding (but even that was ultimately an anti-climax)), he did deserve better than that.

City fans have, after all, stayed behind and acknowledged the teams and managers who have been far less successful in the past. It isn't about a "lap of honour", or being happy with the season's outcome. It's simply about being a moment to say thank you. From both sides. Fans to the team and manager. Manager and team to the fans.

I can't help but feel that there are now too many City fans who have lost sight of what it means to support a club. We showed more loyalty when we were rubbish. Now that we've had a poor season (by the standards that the club itself has set recently (but still nevertheless a season that 10 years ago every single City fan would have loved to have experienced)), it seems the fans would rather walk away and acknowledge nothing than stay behind and give a decent manager and a decent man a respectful send off. A man who during his 3 year tenure has overseen us win a league and two cups surely deserves that at least.

Cracking post as per Ripleys

I'm just baffled that people can't respect what he did for the club, he won you the league ffs- yet melts comments said he didn't deserve anything. That's crazy talk.
