He honestly reminds me of someone who plays football manager. Sets up the game plans etc and then clicks simulate game. 

I think you're confusing FM and Fifa.

Do you have any stats on our record with and without James? I think he's the main factor as opposed to manager..

How do you explain the god awful style of football? Is that Matty James' influence?

Are we the dullest club in the country?

 

Can't be bothered to read any of the replies but we've probably held that title for at least 5 years, our support/supporters have been magnificent during that time

You've clearly not seen the new season ticket video...

Although the production values are obviously quite good I found it cringeworthy. Very over the top and dramatic...

Would probably get the same from Manning if you met him on a night out.

Turning 40 last year really put into perspective just how little City has given me over the years. Four decades of bouncing between the second and third tiers for a club our size is just so depressing. One notable cup run.

I look at fans of other clubs and I’m jealous of the journeys they have been on. Swansea made their way through the leagues and played in Europe. Luton have made it all the way from lowly divisions. Huddersfield, Blackpool, Barnsley, Bournemouth and even Swindon have tasted top flight football. Bradford, Portsmouth and Cardiff have all made it to a cup final. Some of these clubs have suffered since, but at least they’ve had genuinely exciting periods.

I actually think we must be one of the dullest clubs to support in the entire league. I think you could reasonably say that City fans of my generation have seen the least achievement against potential and expectation of ANY set of fans in the entire country. I’m really fed up with it!

Is there any club out there more dull than us when you consider size and potential?

Trust in the behaviours. Manningball will get us to the promised land.

You might be right, under GJ and Cotts it was exciting for a bit. A play off final isn't something to sniffed at, and how can you forget all the Johnstone's Paint Trophy wins!!!

Can Pearson come back please?

This guy is easily in the top 5 all time worst players for city and if he keeps putting in the performance he is I think he could easily become top 3 worst ever 

Just amazed Manning thinks he's better then the kids in the 21s 

Bit over the top. He's 19, has played about 40 minutes in a terrible team. Didn't he look reasonably decent one of his sub appearances?

Players like Nicky Hunt were way worse! Leeds away will haunt me for the rest of my life.

I'm just extremely angry with the people that made this farcical decision to sack Pearson for Manning.  Just so unbelievablely arrogant. If Tinnion had a hand in this then he 100% needs to go with Manning. 

Possibly the worst decision the club has ever made. What a joke, so bored of this shite club.

We are gonna be in a relegation fight, its sneaking right up on us. What a joke. With a top 6 squad and top 10 budget. Who would of thought it?.... EVERYONE other than the people that run the club. Total sh!t show.

We've possibly already got enough points to survive, maybe one more win needed... Would be remarkable if we went down.

12 points in 14, 3 points in 6, 2 goals in 6. The stats are piling up. Lose the next two and he’s gone imo.

You're making me want us to lose...

I don't remember the fans ever taking such a strong instant dislike to a manager before, probably doesn't help that he has had to follow an extremely popular manager that was sacked unfairly.

Just now, And Its Smith said:

Radio Bristol saying we’ve done enough to get something out of the game 

WBA stream saying they've dominated and we're not very good.

Thank God we've got time on the grass coming up.

@David Brent you don't recognise a classic Brent quote? Shame...

It's a standing joke about how many threads about Manning keep getting created and then ultimately discuss the same flaws and errors 

You spelt 'behaviours' wrong

To help @phantom out bless him! 
 

The bloke is brilliant (Phantom) but we need to limit the Manning threads. 

Why?

It’s rather frustrating that this happens. How many times is that now this season? 

It doesn’t seem right that, after paying for a service, it’s taken away. 

Bada bing.

I don't really know what people expect him to say... Maybe it's just better for everyone if LM doesn't do interviews until he gets us back to a respectable form or when he's relieved from the job.

I think people would just prefer it if he didn't speak utter bollocks...

So what is the reason he doesn't want to be called up?

Ben White has asked not to be considered for the squad.

Not sure what the issue is with him, allegedly fell out with one of the coaching staff at the WC and was sent home and now this.

Southgate has denied that today.

But I am also in the pub trade, so need some notice. 

The football gods seem to be spurning me.

Shame that I don't drive, because it's almost impossible to get to on public transport. 

Otherwise I would be sorely tempted.

Where dya live? Maybe sweet @Harry can give you a lift!

Yep. Huge game this week v Sutton. I’d usually only do FGR if they kick off at a different time, but this week I might forego watching our stream v West Brom and head up the road for Sutton instead. Huge game. 

I was just thinking the same, more appealing than watch us likely get comfortably beaten as usual at West Brom.
