    Getting blown away by a Championship-bound Bristol City and losing in limp fashion to an obviously poor Wycombe side who barely dared attack...

    Hmm...

    I'll paraphrase to spare those from having to read this post...

    Shut up and clap while you watch your club sink down the pan!!!

    To play devil's advocate, how do you knows he blames the fans? I have never heard him say it's the fans' fault .

    There are professionals and there are professionals
    Compare this seasons pros with last seasons pros
    Then go back to PP and his cronies
    No comparison whatsoever
    However you look at it we are weaker on and off the pitch now than for some considerable time

    how is all this a hysterical over reaction!!

    this madman Edin is even saying PUBLICLY he wants our team to become a FEEDER CLUB!!

    A very very well written post I too have watched the Manchester City documentary and feel all clubs especially ours can learn a hell of a lot from it These multi millionaires are a team on and off the pitch they have a tremendous bond between them which extends to the manager chairman and owner who are always there for each other. The chairman leaves the playing side to the manager the owner leaves all the decisions to the chairman and never the twain shall meet Even the kitman (a great character) has the affection of the players. Confidence happiness and contempment start at the top and filter down They are like one big family and talk over any problems not a " there's the door attitude" which proves non Englishmen (hope that's acceptable) can run a successful club the ENGLISH way. Guardiola is a friend to the players well capable as we saw of blasting his players and by the same token putting an arm round the shoulder when needed without interference from above. I know we are and always will be light years away from Manchester City and am not certain I could follow a club like that. The WHOLE staff at Bradford City should be made to watch the series and strive to be somewhere near as professional as these guys.

    I myself can no longer watch premiership for the same reason you miss the point however A bond exists throughout the club from the owner to the fans,That doesn't cost anything and something that all but a few on here realize sadly doesn't exist at City

    Your strange use of language suggests that you are someone who has learned English rather than having it as your native tongue. How interesting.

    Spot on. And what’s happened to those great Legends nights, which brought fans and ex players together..... oh that’s right the hierarchy have managed to alienate our Legends also.

    Probably as gullible as those feckwits that believe a tweet on a fake Twitter account and then spend their time responding to said tweet (whilst the host of the spoof username pisses him/herself).

    And another!

    Seriously, the electronic media is excellent at distorting "real" opinions, so I would never attempt to categorize majority opinion, but as my old father said, empty vessels make the most noise.

    When you see Collins body language on touch line, then think back to McCall!!

    Yes I'll go along with the lad Miller, after Burton many thought he'd learnt, although far from a great performance it got us three points, so what does Collins do goes to a formation that has our lone striker Doyle playing around the half way line to pull Wycombes CDs out so Seedorf can use his pace to run riot, that went well.

    'Collude' is a very strong word. I would boo them off after that performance but over the years I have seen many, many, many worse performances and many, many, many better.

    I am simply not hitting the panic button. Sometimes plans take a while to come together.

    We gave other managers and regime the time. Let's give this group the same.

    Admire your efforts to introduce some perspective but that was up there with the absolute worst of City I've witnessed in 40+ years ! and Jesus knows I've witnessed some absolute tripe at times.

    That wasn't the context of the question. The context was about ability and qualifications.

    TBF, he appointed his managers to manage, just as he did with his other businesses. He didn’t appoint a manager and then attempt to do most of the job himself.

    Why employ specialists if you believe you are better than they? Rahic is not Lawn...!
