Looking at this the foot playing the ball is nearer the dark part of the pitch 

The guy he passes to isn't as close to the dark area 

He was onside as the picture shows. Even a schoolboy striker knows to stay slightly behind the guy with the ball.

Nice goal, pleased for Roberts

My dentist is a Stoke fan and he knows I'm City. I'm scared enough of dentists as it is.

If we send them down your next appointment will be like the scene with Laurence Olivier and Dustin Hoffman in the Marathon Man

Another gift spurned, Tommy didn’t give the shot enough beef

Blackburn are being very generous tonight. Very rude not to accept their gifts .

What a miss from Sykes

Like everything in this country now heaven & earth moved or changed / amended for the minority impacting the majority , and for all those who will no doubt have a pop at me for saying that , it’s the bloody truth 

It ain’t the truth mate. You’ve just spent too much time reading the Daily Mail comments.

He’s gone up another level since coming back from AFCON and is now guaranteed a start if fit. Wish he was still in our team.

Christ… Swansea must be shite if they can’t beat this shower

I just turned on to watch and I actually saw a shot! A pathetic shot but I guess I can’t have everything.

If you remember back to when Nige arrived he expressed concern about players’ fitness.  We seem to be slipping back into old ways under Manning.  I really don’t like the sidelining of the Academy players under Manning.  Worried re summer recruitment, as should he still be here, god forbid; will we recruit, as in the recent past, too many have been’s and never will be’s.

That’s the problem with having a coach rather than a manager, they just think about the short term and doing what it takes to keep them in a job. 
That results in ignoring the players coming through the youth system because it’s too much of a risk to play them. It also means they are more likely to risk picking players who have yet to fully recover from injury. Ensuring the fitness of the team is a long term activity - a short term coach doesn’t give it as much importance.

Had 30 minutes not 10 and was garbage. Impossible that an underlying good player could be that bad 

I dunno.. he looked just as poor as everyone else in a red shirt. He fitted in well.

Yep, you can’t tar a player after one appearance.  

Maradona would probably have looked crap if he had to come on to the field during that performance.

How many Saturday’s like this have I seen like this in my life? It’s just been one of the worst performances this season.

No home team leading in the Championship 

So easy for QPR - terrible goal to give away

Southampton commentators saying that their team were “tired”. Yep, that must be the reason.

Cornick!

Dickie!! <insert obligatory cock pun>

Was in crackers corner with my crackers dad & his crackers mates.

An unforgettable evening & a treasured memory

I was in that part of the ground as well. It was scary getting out of the ground, I don't think my feet touched the ground as I was swept along in the crowd.

I trust this linesman, he got another call right there

Great save by Max!

Boro look dangerous when they get the ball in our penalty area

Bell! You should have scored!
