I'm just hoping the week off has got some legs in them.

I don't see it like that LB, I see it as they're fucked. Whether it be coming back from injury, carrying an injury or having t play excessive games due to other players injuries, it takes its toll.

How many 1st team players do we have for tomorrow?

These performances have been happening since before Christmas. Not sure tiredness is the excuse...although it may play a part.

When you play Yaya every game then it means others taking up the slack. We're a team of ageing players who cannot cope with the largess of youth that some teams have. Injuries throughout the course of the season, and a lack of leadership on the pitch, all goes to compromise our position.

We started well but then lost key players. No team can deal with that physically, but when it hits them mentally?

What compounds it is how we expect to play exactly the same way with players that clearly don't fit the system. Instead of changing tactics/formations to suit, we seem to carry on regardless.

I wouldn't fault any of them for effort today.

Me neither.

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Nope. They gave it everything in that second half and were hit with a sucker punch which would have resulted in their equaliser had the officiating been in any way competent.

It must be so difficult to play against officials every week. Draining. And not allowed say anything about it.

Cannot fault them for effort today at all.

So why??? What was so different between today and last week?

All I can think of his....... the Captain. However that then makes you question why in Komps absence do the lads not give the same level of effort for Yaya?

Are they fucked off with him playing and starting every game?, are they fucked with him due to cake gate? Does he not have it in him to lead.a team?. Personally I think the first and last reason.

So why does he have the Captains armband when Komps is injured?
I haven't a fecking clue what I'm doing! Gillie come back man I want my sig back. As the Photobucket thingy gone?

You calling me bitter? You do know what kind of person uses that word to a City fan, don't you?

Because they can see he's a workshy fart-arse?
