No FIGHT, no BOTTLE, that only heads one way unless the one change is made

Read twitter, read the forums and this is possibly even more depressing that the Chelsea 7-0 or Blues or Liverpool or Newcastle this season, which is saying something.

FULL TIME – Man City 4 vs Villa 0 – HOULLIER OUT

So two days after a disappointing defeat we have a really tough away fixture with away form that is nothing short of abysmal.

Xmas games thick and fast, DEFEATS as well

I don’t think I have had such a negative title for a match preview before but it is inevitable for this period, well up until Sunderland.

£75m and £400k a week is the difference

That is all it was today. The three City goalscorers cost that much to buy (70% of MON’s total spend) and their wages are astronomical if press reports are to be believed. The difference today was marginal an clinical finishing, one moment Carew should have scored but he never and they took the chance at [...]

SEASON OVER – MAN CITY 3 – VILLA 1 – CAREW

The third of a very popular series and the next up are Man City fans. Vital Man City Again a very positive response to us and of course a lot of goodwill towards Richard Dunne Flinty123city Well mate – you have the best manager in England ( he started 100 yards from where i am [...]

Gareth Barry not a miss for Villa

I am sure a few of us watch each Manchester City game with an eye on our former player now playing in light blue. So after watching the game against Blackburn and tonight’s game where City lost convincingly to Everton we should ask the question whether we actually miss him despite all the fuss at [...]

Gareth Barry not missed at Villa

Do we miss Barry ? Well that is a question we can start to answer after a third of a season. I have no doubt that the Gareth Barry of last season is certainly not missed, he did not contribute much last season and was one of the reasons I would use for our slump. [...]
