Kinell what a reaction

It's the perm all the way for me and cl footy next year that will decide RMs fate

Blooding the squad was a good idea in my humble, and if you thought the selection was that shite perhaps you should have insulted the manager before kick off?

One is just opining...

Well fucking said. Never seen such a bunch of hysterical women (of either gender) in my life as on here tonight! People suggesting the manager might be sacked because we didn't take the whatevertheleaguecupscalledthisyear cup seriously? They need to take a look in the mirror and give themselves a slap! Very pleased some youngsters got a chance, and we got some gametime into a couple of crocks and old fogeys too. Shame if we won't get a chance to see how these kids would have done for another round or two...

[Moonchesteri]

why the hell our we playing our reserves???????

We have Chelsea on Saturday?! :-/

How stupid will we look if we get dicked 0-2 on saturday with two goals from Anelka who played today? That may well happen you know.

[Brad]

Commme on city ffs

Had this happened at the same stage of last season I'd see it as a fair bet there would have been some hysteria coming from your corner.

exactly. if we lose this mancini has got alot to answer for imo.

the fans are desperate for a trophy, this is easily the best chance we have this year.

[BobbyJ1956]

Not putting any pressure on them, not threatening. Need moment of magic from Silva.

[Brad]

Comee on

Well said chaps.Good for the younger lads to get a chance.Ideally we would all love a win but i wont loose any sleep if we dont.
The team selection is spot on for this competition.

But that didn't happen mate, Hughes took the cups seriously if I remember rightly.

[everyonehatesus]

Some of you can call what you like but this is crap. Why we let go Bellers is beyond me, this is the time when we need players like him and not some of these fucking idiots like RSC or Jo.

[trueblue64]

We are all over the place.

[bluej]

It's not even that we've just lost - we've been completely dicked.

Wow you must have seen us win 5 premier leagues, 4 FA Cups and a Champions League to think we are privlaged enough to play our reserve team.

[Blue Since 76]

OliverH - why is it over reactive to say that putting out a team of kids in a competition we could win is ridiculous? Maybe you're one of the older ones who remembers seeing a decent side winning things? I'm not. My first city memory is watching an open bus tour in 1976, but i don't recall the match, as I was 4. If we'd won this, an fa cup and a few championships in the last few years, i'd have no problem using it as an outing for the squad, but you've got to earn that. Like the rags, who made 11 changes and still scored 5.

What's ridiculous is the attitude of the manager and some fans who seem to think we're too good for this competition

[Beeks]

I'm with Patrick..Mickey Mouse Cup..I want a European Cup Final in Dublin..or an FA Cup Final at Wembley
