Your'e right btajim, I've been a City supporter for a long, long time and believe me there has never been a better time to be a blue.
Why be pessimistic - what have you got to be pessimistic about? Just enjoy the ride.

I hope the questions about "style of play" are being answered now.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Yep, I was vocal about the performances especially after Hull/the Stoke games and where we were going with that style of play but I am quite happy to be shown that it was while we were getting the defence settled and then we would unleash the attacking football again.
14 goals in the last 3 games, fantastic Mr Mancini.

Of course Mancini is the man for the job.
Those that think he is not know absolutely nothing about football, Mancini has inherited a squad assembled by a clueless predecessor who could not make them play, in just a few months he has them defensively sound, we are not conceding many goals and now scoring for fun. All this with virtually no signings of his own, it is amazing the turn around.
“forza Mancini”

Works both way Dub fella. NQDP was first (well, nearly) to hold his hands up about Bellamy and admit he was very wrong (with many others) on the day we signed him.
In truth both manager situations were touch and go at some point!!
Some you win, some you lose!

I can't believe that over half the voters on here still aren't behind Mancini
Is it sloth or something worse?

I think that so many voters wanted to wait until the end of the season and see where we finish - and what has been the style of football.
I have been swayed massively from the 'not sure' towards yes in recent games - as much by the style of football as by the results - but I will still wait - still not sure what all that overly defensive stuff was that went before - which is the 'real Bobby?' - mind you if the alternative is Jose - then I am 1000% behind Bobby

Needs to be started again doesn´t it? Most of those votes were done in less heady times.

That's true mate.
Actually, we've only beaten Chelsea out of all the top 7 teams in the league under Mancini, so I suppose he has that to put to bed in the next few games, but its looking very good!

I think deep down the scum will be more worried about us than us about them, going off current form.
I can see Rooney coming on and then off injured again...fergiescum is so fucking desperate he will play him.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

rooney will play. no doubt about it.
bacon is probably more desperate at the moment than ever.
i cannot tell you how much a want tevez to score the winner in the last minute. i would say thats how my dream went, but that also included him kicking chuckles head off and shitting down his neck.

P Pts F A GD
United 16 36 40 10 30
Arsenal 16 36 31 14 17
Chelsea 15 33 41 15 26
CITY 16 33 36 14 22
Liverpool 16 29 20 8 12
Spurs 14 25 18 10 8

Sorry about the formatting, but I'm sure you can get the picture. We're where we are on merit.

If Tevez scores six - goes onto the be the golden boot - who do you think would get the POTY award by the press??? - yeah Rooney (unless after the 'justified' tribute to Giggs last season it is Scholes's turn)
