Just seen the goals, 3 were very good but have you ever seen such a soft penalty?
Every corner and free kick should be a spot kick if that ref is in charge unless its just helping out a top club?

Watched the match on TV with my brother-in-law. Yes it was an extremely soft penalty but it made no difference. We both said that Warnock would focus on that in the post-macth interview and sure enough he didn't disappoint. According to the commentators the Man City starting 11 was purchased for £205 million while the Leeds team was £1.3 million. So yes, it was a mismatch and we never had any real chance of causing an upset away from home. But did we really have to go down so wimpishly? I'd like to see Warnock go now and Nigel Adkins installed as his replacement.Originally Posted by Stagger
Tell you what though Stagger ...watching the Leeds fans today, it was like turning back the clock to the 1990s. They were just like we were back then.
They turned up in numbers, made a load of noise even when behind, laughed at themselves and their team in the way I haven't heard any other fans but city's do. 'We lose every week, you're nothing special' , ' you're only here to watch the Leeds', 'ole' when they strung 3 passes together etc.
Fair play to them for their part in the atmosphere, and for backing their team when they are obviously very poor.

Brechin City fans to their non-league cup opposition fans.. 'you only come to the big games, you only come to the big games'.. gallows humour is pretty normal..
Perhaps, you are an example of why we shouldn't give up hope. Although trust us to get the only Arab owners who don't actually have any money! To be honest it's not that much different from the 1980's for us and we came back from that. But at the moment, we're just a feeder club for Norwich City!Tell you what though Stagger ...watching the Leeds fans today, it was like turning back the clock to the 1990s.

fa cup today seemed to throw up some dire 'contests'
Enjoyed the banter with you lot today.
You sang, loud proud and made me laugh with your shoes off if you hate Man U
Good to see another team that can take the piss out of itself, reminded me of typical city banter
Oldham Athletic or Everton v Wigan Athletic
Millwall v Blackburn Rovers
Manchester City v Barnsley
Manchester United or Reading v Middlesbrough or Chelsea
Could be an all Lancashire semi finals
You got to be simple to follow Leeds.
It was a moderate performance by us today. They managed to string a few passes about a couple of times but never really got a decent shot on goal. The ball was going back to City far too often and far too easily. Passing far to inacurate, we were just passing 'in the general area'!! No idea why we subbed McCormack for Morrison. Warnocks got a couple more games to potentially keep us in the running for pay-offs then he's hoofed. Adkins seems to be on the cards to replace him. Would it be a good idea to get him in now and see what he can do with the squad? Not sure? Will he come?! Not sure either.
Roll on next season.....
