Belloumi - Had a decent 20 mins when he first came on.

Hughes - I suppose we didn't concede whilst he was on.

Millar - As poor as the rest but gets a free pass returning from injury.

I cannot recall a performance, especially in the first half, as bad as that for a long time.
The second half was slightly better but still way below what is expected. Of course the weather was atrocious which didn't help, but it was the same for Boro although I don't suppose their fans even noticed the wind and rain as they bounced about in the away end, talk about Christmas coming early for them. What an away day we gave them.
The kind of performance from City which will affect future home attendances if not quickly rectified and it is worrying that we can be so bad.
So difficult to pick a MOTM because no-one had a good game.
At a push.
1. Geldhart for winning then scoring the penalty.
2. Giles. Found a bit of space down the wing but no-one in the box aware enough to get on the end of a couple of decent crosses.
3. Belloumi for not getting injured.
....
Shocking.

The west stand steward with the mop and bucket drying seats pre match.

Pandur.
Walking on with a girl wearing ear defenders…He joined in by wearing them as well..Nice touch …



Think he forgot to take them off though.

One of the worst - if not THE worst 45 minutes I have ever seen City produce and I've been watching since 1974/5 season

Been watching since 1969 and that’s the worst first half performance I have ever seen. Nevertheless, me and the youngest stayed till the bitter end. Still warming up today!

The day I leave early is the day we replace Bon Accord in the record books, even then I'd probably stay for the final whistle.
 
Belloumi - bright spark in second half, good to see him returning and getting better with minutes on the park

Gelhardt - not as bad as the rest

The fans who stayed til the end - kudos to ya, p1ss wet through and watched that shyte but stayed loyal.
