Man City 2 - 1 Newcastle United - 03/10/10 - post match reaction from page 33


Recommended Posts

The problem is that points aren't given out for effort. We've been ripped off by the referee today but ultimately we've got too many players who aren't doing enough. Hughton has his work cut out to convince the squad that positives can be taken from performances like this rather than let their heads drop thinking even at our best we're going to lose.

 

Considering the injuries to Ben Arfa and Coloccini it's been a pretty disasterous day.

 

Oh, and City are garbage. Shit team full of reprehensible overpaid workhorses and a vacuous, pathetic crowd.

 

Despise City but i reckon they'll be in the Top 4 come the end of the season.

Agreed. Nolan and Routledge definitely didn't do anywhere near enough today.

 

Add Barton to that, his free kicks/corners were abysmal

i rarely get wound up when beaten, i can handle it when we are second best, but today has me seething. sometimes the ref gives the games big decision against you, but to give three f***ing huge decisions against you gets me kind of riled.

 

 

well done lads, we showed that we are as good as the better teams today, hope qwe take something from it and hope the refs assessor kicks his arse.

One of the unluckiest match I've seen from us for a while.  Well done lads, don't get down. Hope Hatem is ok but we all know he isn't. 

 

I'm sending Hatem a get well soon card to the club, I hope others do the same.  I've no idea if he'll get it but it will be nice if we all send him one to know we ae thinking of him

Paradoxically, the enormity of the injustice today has somehow made it less crushing for me than if we had just lost 2-1 after a normal match. After Ben Arfa went off I felt like taking a gun to my mouth, now I feel fired up and eager to show two fingers to this bent league and its "favorite" teams by staying up this season.

 

Hopefully the players feel the same way.

Very hard to so swallow, played  well but there is no fucking justice.

 

exactly, the way man city played they will have trouble making the top 4 , they were nothing special,  we played ok we can take sum positives apart from the injuries/

 

we came up from a league below n only lost to one super goal to the richest club in the world and a dubious penalty.  plus we should have got a cast iron pen our selves.

 

i know it hurts now but guys calm yrselves.

I've already mentioned it, but if we'd won our (very, very winnable) home games - then i'd been feeling a tad philosophical about the match today. But when we're losing the games in the way that we are - it's very worrying.

 

It works both ways. Winning at your worst is a sign of Champions. Losing at your best is the sign of relegation candidates. Plus the fact we appear to have gained absolutely no luck whatsoever over the past 12 months.

 

The Ben Arfa thing just doesn't bare thinking about.

Tiote, Jonas, Coloccini, Campbell, Enrique and to an extent, Barton and Ameobi were all positives. Perch is a liability, Nolan's proving himself to be a Championship player, but Routledge was our worst player; looks like he just wants to find a corner to hide in.

 

It's a shit, shit result but we'll be fine in the long run.

Bollocks.

 

Kind of robbed but that will be forgotten by next week. Gutted about HBA and worried about Colo, but Sol did grand.

Other positives in Tiote (the man!), Jonas, Nolan being taken off,etc.

 

Ultimately though we need points and we didn't get any.
