33 Years And Counting

How many City fans told us that they were going to win comfortably? Their cockiness seemed ridiculous even before the games but now... we've been much the better team over the 180 minutes, actually, it's our finishing that let us down a little!

I do think its laughable that you are putting this loss entirely down to a couple of elbows. Without the refereeing in the first leg we'd have beaten you far more comfortably.

First of all, the penalty at Man City was deserved. After all, Bellamy was pulled out of his balance and he was pulled again inside the box after Bellamy managed to continue the run. Secondly, the throwing of a coin and GLASS BOTTLES should be severely punished by the FA, this moment in football was absolutely ridiculous. It was not a just a coin, glass bottles were falling next to Bellamy. If the FA does nothing about this, then football will be lost. I would even say to pull Utd out of the final as an indication to show this behaviour needs to stop. In the Netherlands, fans from Feyenoord and Ajax are already forbidden to go to away matches when they play each other, due to this and it is time the FA starts acting like they have some balls, instead of giving Utd the benefit of the doubt, case: Neville and his finger. Aside from that, whining scumbag? Still can't get over the fact that Utd didn't sign him, despite him being a cult hero at Utd? Sounds like bitter sour grapes to me. Imagine Rooney and Tevez up front, you'd have a stellar offence, but no, instead you call him names out of sorrow for him going to a club that did want him. Blame Ferguson, not him. He's not done you any harm, apart from scoring against you, which is only his professionalism.

Im not condoning throwing anything, its wrong. But its not the first time its happened. Why should United be made an example of? Just recently Millwall and West ham were worse and they got fines. Pulling a team out of a competition is excessive for the action of 4 or 5 people. As for neville and his finger - its no more inciteful than what tevez did during and after the game. In fact, if it werent for the media going on about it, most of the people in the stadium wouldnt have even known that it happened! As for Tevez and Rooney, we have the better player of the two and playing them together made us easier to defend against as they both want to play in the same space. Most people dont care that he didnt stay, it was his comments afterwards that have caused people to turn on him. And finally, b0ll0cks to you about that penalty!

Just hope they don't win the FA Cup because they've got a good chance and it's a better competition than the League Cup.

Ha! Some of the Man City fans are cocky because now Man City have the money and top players, thus they have hope to win things in the future. If you want to label their hope as cockiness, fine with me. I have nothing to say. Same thing, no point arguing.

filth - you really believe you even deserved that first legged win? We seemed to be strolling when that dubious penalty- the one that 99% of all pundits and ex ref Graham Poll believe was wrongly given was scored. Now you know....that even with all that money spent....you'll forever be in our shadow! Let's not also forget the lighter thrown at Evra at the first leg. Hahaha 34 years!!!! Take that in your pipe and smoke it!

You seem to believe I am a City supporter, but you can forget that idea, as I am not. I watched the match from a neutral perspective.As for the penalty, there's no defending it. Saha didn't even realise he was being pulled, in other words, it wasn't stopping him from what he was trying to do, else he would've complained about it. After all, Saha thought he was offside. As for dodgy penalty decision, if any club gets dodgy decisions, it is you. Remember a certain match against a certain German team? Oh, how about the extra injury time against City at the start of the season? Don't feel sour grapes. Utd always gets lucky with refereeing. Neville's celebration in front of the City crowd? Considering Adebayor got in a lot of trouble for his celebration, you'd think Neville would receive the same treatment? Nope. Same thing happened with his finger, after he was already warned by the FA for his celebration. Don't put the "we get done by" finger on me. Because you don't and you know it. Also, Tevez is openly friends with Man Utd players, even after today he was hugging everyone where the rest of the team was already gone, but sure, being in an argument with the manager is a reason for you to hate him, despite that your own players you support are still his friends, especially Evra... hypocrite. As for Evra, didn't see the first leg. Can't judge on that. However, a lighter in comparison to a coin and three bottles filled with liquid and several elbows flying around... you make the difference.

What a game it was,its one of the best I've seen and when city play it always has that added importance and for me the first half was a midfield battle but in the second half there was just one team for me although I got a bit nervous when Tevez scored but that injury time winner was just awesome,it reminded me of the Milan game where rooney made it 3-2 in our favour.Games like these can only take place at Old Trafford.

I would also like to single out this player of city who I felt had a fantastic game.If it wasn't for Boyata,rooney could easily have had another couple of goals,he was a real positive for city yesterday.

I was right - CIty fans whinge at everything..
Yes the bottle was thrown at Bellamy - and I tell you I find this utterly disgusting - kick Utd out of the cup - never heard such crap and it could only come from City fans!
So City couldnt score enough to win - thats the be all and end all - CIty WERE NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

Hey NW - Nerissi posted above that he's not a City fan, and he's the one calling for you to be kicked out. Don't you bother to read other people's comments?

Diffuse the situation? Explain why he tried to take the coin from Barry before he could hand it to the ref. And i am not a city fan so have no need to explain the actions of their players or fans. He tried to get rid of the evidence, like he did with the bottle. All clubs have idiot fans but players should really be more accountable.

How the f*** was var der sar hiding evidence in your words KB1, you are so blind with hatred that you can't tell when a playing is trying to help out another player. If he wasn't why would he delinerately stand between bellamy and the croud to block missiles. I was very proud that he actually did help the****.

LOL @ all the cit-eh fans with their pathetic excuses. I thought Gary Cook said you were going to Wembley!

Are you saying there has never been anything like this go on at Anfield then KB1?
