By then we will have had those ten points returned and an apology from Mr. Masters.

Man enough to admit when I’m wrong.If we lose by more than 9 which I remember Southampton doing a couple times I’ll transfer you a tenner mate if you want
If only we hadn’t bought all that sporting advantage with our egregious spending

Man City and their cheating owners (ahem) have ruined the sport. They just bore the opposition into submission.
They really shouldn’t.Did lescott just call Mykolenko, Yarmalenko
Someone should clip that and send it to Joey Barton
Nobody should bother wasting oxygen entreating that waste of sperm.

They were boring themselves until they got gifted the corner. On the BeIn commentary Jon Champion pointed out just how quiet the Etihad was up to that point, all you could hear was our lot
He goes on about how bad women pundits are when the men are even worse at times

Hearing a woman’s high pitched screaming and moaning can be quite exciting at times!
Everton boss Sean Dyche speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "I think the first goal came out of their first shot on target, they only had three shots on target so that shows our defensive side of the game. I thought we were organised, I thought the discipline was good. The truth of it is when you turn the ball over, can you keep it, can you ask enough questions? We didn’t.
"It is a tough place to come and they are in really good form, they can make a lot of changes from the bench, we are well aware of that. A lot of good signs from our performance but we know those turnover moments are so important.
"The understanding from the side tactically was pleasing. I spoke to them about the turnover moments. You have to keep the ball and go forward with conviction. We didn’t do that. The number of times we could have got in behind their high line and we didn’t really activate on it so that was something we were frustrated with.
"Top sides, and they are a top side - they did what they do. They can find different ways of operating. They put you to the sword."
On watching the game away from the touchline: "It’s interesting in a bad way. I shouldn’t have been up there in the first place. Hopefully not [up there] going forward."

Dyche’s post match reaction stinks of ‘I’m a genius.. I did my bit but we lost as the players didn’t do anything when they got the ball’

You're right. Most of those local fans from the 90s have been priced out and replaced by tourists. Sad to say that City have become like united with all the tourists.
1-0 down & still stays with one up front? Just swaps them around ?

I would love it if a manager ever had the front to come out and say, “I did my bit but we lost as the players didn’t do anything when they got the ball.”
Not necessarily wrong today
But I don't feel like he has done enough in 12 months to improve our patterns of play on the ball. We still have no real clear identity in possession.
I've never felt much about city one way or the other.
Kinda liked them in the 90s with the brother kits, peter reid, Kinkladze (sp?) Goater etc.
I liked maine road.
But what I saw today was a club with no soul.
The ad hoardings were doubled up and synced up with the cameras to give the illusion of boards double the legal height.
There were ads painted on the touchline.
The stadium announcer did stupid fan chants when players came on.
The only audible chant I heard from their fans was about old trafford falling down.
The Etihad is just such a boring non-descript venue with no redeeming features.
The whole thing just stinks of modern plastic football.
Boring and soulless.
