These watches the ref have if it goes over the line for a goal, isn't the byline a continuation of the goal line? Why couldn't the watch do that for the whole byline?

 

[Whatson]

They are multi millionaire frauds though. I am sick of the lot of them.
And I am a bad loser (Sith not Jedi)

agree mate
heated and angry reaction, i understand

 

[Further Harm]

Screw it, Bring in Fat Sam

I heard Rodgers is free.

 

[Jamiednm]

Just let the disappointment wash over you - the poor results for the rest of the season, the exodus of half decent players in the Summer, the signing of mediocre Cleverly/Lennon-esque players etc. Don't react to it, just become numb to it.

 

[Dooguk]

The heart seems to have gone out of this team. They don't play with any passion.
No leaders on the pitch. It's like watching football by numbers. Martinez doesn't seem to be the one to inspire them,
so it's time for a change I reckon.

 

[EFC Si]

I honestly don't know what to think after that. I really don't.

The plan as as going well for a while. We got the first goal and we showed real threat on the break but after Gerry missed that chance it all got away from us thereafter with the sub changes and city were the better side over the 90 mins.

Sadly cracks have been opened further between players,manager and fans. It,s going to be a horrible end to the season and a change of ownership cannot come quick enough.

 

[shoouhboo]

I'm speechless. Get Martinez out now. Why wait till the end of the season? We need a spark now!

 

[PhilM]

Did he just say that ? Surely not

He makes me angry with his constant positive bs

Indeed he did @longers and @Jreverton1. Mind-boggling!

 

[kenada_blue]

It's easy to think about hindsight, but 38m for Stones? Crikey - we woudn't be 12th and looking over our shoulders now if we'd have been able to invest that.

Hed buy a Stones-lite player.

 

[Jimmy1]

If Martinez is here end of the season then he's here next season also. Managers don't get sacked at the end of a season. If there's any appetite to pull the trigger then it has to be now. We'll have to endure more of his crap I fear.

 

[samZ]

No idea why Martinez had our regular right back on the bench. If Coleman was fit enough for bench duty he should have started.
To play Stones out of position only heaped the pressure on him.

 

[bluelegend]

My son is gutted he wanted to go to wembley so gutted for him please Martinez just go your breaking my heart.

Same with my son. I'm heartbroken for that on top of the crap Martinez threw out there

 

[JAYTALITY]

It's a combination of everything. Bias refs and a big budget. How can you expect success against that. The odds are drastically stacked against you when not only are billionaire teams gifted goals against you but the fact that they are billionaire teams. It's why city are in a final they couldn't give a toss about.

 

[Tin-Tin]

At least its better than bottling it in the final though.
