    Good half. Irritating to have two pindits and a commentator all who clearly want City to win...

    My favourite comment was that Southampton should be attacking more because that is what "we" want to see. Hmmm, Saints have a plan and it certainly isn't that one!

    No shots on target from either team.

    The rules of this game are simple. You have to kick the bouncy round thing INSIDE the big square frame thing!

    Commentary on BT is bias and embarrassing beyond belief....

    Ref should be a fighter pilot if he saw that. Also, too many bookings to our players, somehow not including Bertrand. Quite enjoyable game though.

    Hoodle still holds a grudge because we didn't want him back...

    Still a pen according to Poll even though Forster touches it

    Was it a pen?
    Didn't look it from our end but it's hard to tell
    Decent half,we are very open if saints get at us on the break
    We don't look like scoring,just passing the ball in front of your back line a lot and I fear we will play into your hands second half

    Just seen the replay from,behind the goal. Forster 100% gets it so its not a pen.
    But even if that was a pen, we weren't sure even with ultra slow mo replays, and if you're not sure you can't give a penalty.

    Graham Poll just said that it was a pen even though Forster gets the ball as Sane can still get the ball so it is effectively another foul when he then takes him out after getting the ball

    I've enjoyed how we've done defensively. Shape has been good. They've got in a couple of times, but hardly carving us open.

    They're going to get done like Southampton this half.

    How can it be a penalty if Forster touches it first then takes out the player afterwards?

    Because Sane could still get to the ball after Forster touches it then Forster brings him down

    Oh must be right then. Not like "three yellow cards" would get something wrong eh?

    Because Sané can still get to the ball until Fraser wipes him out.
