    Can't seem to find any compassion in that article.

    Ya Ya is doubtful.

    That might reduce the pain.

    Clutching at straws here..........

    I've been betting a fiver straight win on every City game this season and believe it or not I'm a couple of quid UP (mainly because of the odds I got in the first man City game). I'll be doing the same tomorrow, though I won't be holding my breath. On thread though, can't stand people who gloat before the event, even if it is justified.

    City are 20-1 to win in a ' 2 horse race' but one horse has 3 legs <whistle>

    20-1 seems very tempting, however i think we have more of a squeak against Citeh's noisy neighbours.

    Yes agree with hopefully Rooney & RVP still absent but won't get 20-1; 8 or 9-1 more like.

    Best bet would be with a handicap.

    Agreed. But you never know 20-1 in a 2 horse race has surely got to be worth a couple of quid, i think back to Peterboro doing the double over us, what were the odds against that happening !!

    It would be one of the biggest upsets in PL history.

    20-1 can't be far off the biggest ever odds against in a same league match.

    The odds only reflect the amount bet on each team to win. If odds ruled then betting all teams at long odds on would make a profit so something tells me they do not all win.

    Whiff you deserve another win fair play.

    Peterborough were @9-1 to win at CCS.

    A sending off at 0-0 and it's a different ball game. 2 sending's off and City may have a sneaky chance<whistle>

    Well they are all talking in terms of double figures now and even betting on it so they seem pretty confident.

    However they are still hurting from the defeat at our ground they can`t take that away from us.

    The good news

    If they win it just means we beat them at ours and they beat us at theirs, 3 points each if thats the case, they can only lose ground.

    Cocky, arrogant sods. Must be former Man U fans converted to the other side.

    Wouldn't it be nice to turn them over again just to give their smugness a smack.

    How can you class us as "smug and arrogant" ? What do you want us to say? Have you seen our home form? (or even our away form at the moment)

    You beat us fair and square at your place at a time when we were still adjusting to new players and a manager, it tends to happen with newly promoted teams Blackpool were doing it when they came up as were Burnley, I would class us as confident

    In that case you should beat us then, we are adjusting to new players and manager, looks like your turn.

    Ducado...of course the way you are playing should make you confident but this is the Cardiff forum and we play you tomorrow so it is just a realistic view of how we both view the game.

    I`m sure we would feel the same if we were in your spot and scoring like you have.

    Look at some of the quotes on your forum, "double figures", "pretty much pick a number upwards from 4", "I'm going for 7-0. **** it, 8-0"

    I rest my case.

    Yes, you have a very good side with some great players and I predict a 3 - 0 win for you on our prediction league, but those are just a very small sample of Man City fans' quotes.

    Do they not smack of smugness and arrogance? Those scores equate us worse than Blackburn.

    You may well give us a tanking but show a bit of humility, you will gain more respect. Or perhaps you can't be bothered.
