They'll be no ****ers left watching City by January if we carry on playing like this. Don't care how thin the squad is. Just have a go and try and win a game you boring clueless **** Phelan

I have to disagree, it was Phelan's selection of the starting eleven combined with the utterly **** tactics that he imposed on them.
I totally agree with that, but I played at a pretty decent level in football and if my manager had set us up like that it was up to someone to take a bloody grip of it if the manager wouldnt and say 'stuff this it isn't working, lets at least try and bloody impact the game' but it just looks like they couldn't care less.
 
That's up there with the stupidest responses I've seen! Especially seeing as that's the sort of response a school kid would make! How does me questioning the fact that not one player has attempted to influence the game make me sound like a school kid! I'm sorry I thought players like mason and Henrikson and a few others were supposed to try and influence a game! Silly me.
I'd say that you're 'nobody is trying' comment was pretty stupid, to be honest. Are you one of these sorts who's never played sport yourself?
 
stuart green reckons some of the players look like they dont want to be there....(he's given them directions to carlisle) :)

The players are running around but how many look desperate to get on the ball?

Haha, I happened to play at a pretty decent level of football and also represented the Royal Navy's first team on multiple tours but I suppose that counts for nothing. Listen we are all entitled to an opinion and I'll stand by my opinion that not one of those players except Bowen looked like they really wanted to take the initiative and have a bloody go! It's like they just accept the inevitable instead of at least going for it? I think back to Blackpool in the prem and although they went down, they gave it a hell of a go and won many fans by playing attacking football with a squad that was inferior to the one we have now. Yes they still went down but I'm sure most city fanc would rather go down with a fight then like we are going to!?
 
Truly pathetic. New manager, owners and about six new players in January to stand a chance. can hardly blame the players for setting up playing so deep for 80 min. Not having a shot is truly awful. massive shake up needed.
 
Give 2 months notice as T&C's ...

you've missed the November cut off & will have to stay until the end of February ...

That's a lot of punishment! I said that if it ever got to be a task to watch then again I'd give up and its certainly starting to feel that way again

Not attacking much doesn't necessarily equate to 'not trying'.

I agree add dawson to that

Too many passengers to stay up unfortunatly
 
That's the worst game I've seen since Scarborough beat us in the Auto Windscreen Wiper cup at home & we lost 2-0!
It's the only game I walked out of & the only reason I didn't walk out tonight was because I wasn't cold, wet & miserable! Well I was ****ing miserable but with a beer!
****ing abysmal. Time for Mike to bite the bullet & say he can't work with the owners. He can get a job in L1 or the Championship now & can take Mason with him for free! ****ing Hendrickson too!
