    With that Lineup theres no wonder why we are loosing

    Fernandes & Elano in Midfield. Shaun Wright Phillips off injured.

    Vassel the headless chicken on along side Elano the under-performer & Fernandes the kick them up in the air & collect the cards.

    No Robinho, No Ireland, No SWP. sigh.

    City trying to push forward with no effect, very niggly game, alot of light fouls from the Nott's side.

    Absolute disgrace.

    Micha Richards, Richard Dunne & Michael Ball should all have their contracts ripped up & shipped out.

    City fans have walked & are walking out of the Stadium.

    All credit to Forest.

    FT

    Manchester City FC 0 Nottingham Forest FC 3

    Complete defencive shambles, if Mark Hughes wants to keep his job then he will have to Replace Richard Dunne & drop Micha Richards to the bench in favour of Vincent Kompany.

    As City fans left the Stadium after the 3rd conceeded goal, they hurled abuse at Hughes, considering the starting lineup & then the complete performance i believe we had / have every right to let our frustration's known.

    Nice read mate.

    This was really cool. I could not get coverage where I am and this article really did it for me.

    Thanks. I`m a City fan by the way. Chin up I`m sure some new signings would fix things.

    By the way....do you know why Robinho did not play?

    Hi S, im sure he was rested & that Mark Hughes did not want to rush him, In one of the previous games Robinho picked up a knock on his Ankle, nothing serious but City have a tradition of over-protecting their players which can only be good for Internationals.

    I will do what i can to bring un-televised games to everyone here in the future but i am hopeful there wont be many games un-televised.

    Yes pity our current defencive players are letting us down hugely, hopefully they will be replaced, we just purchased a quality Leftback so hoping for more defenders to arrive.
