His interview sent you to sleep ?

They're safe, players are on the beach........Severn Beach.

Now I know you're lying.

No way could they afford Severn Beach.

Always happy to get a win. Good job, well done.

Credit where credit's due.

Just like debit, when debit's due.

Manning is currently still in deficit.

When does the memorabilia appear in club shop for this win?

Gutted !

Spent a fortune on that damned Southampton memorabilia.

Now I have to buy the bloody Leicester memorabilia.

It's a money-making racket.

I was really surprised how many empty seats there were in the ground today for a sell out, not just the usual spaces in the south stand but lots of spaces on the sides as well, 

So, a bit short on the back and sides?

Good to see us win otherwise we'd soon be getting a number one all over.

Obviously, want us to win today, especially as it’s being televised, but can’t see that happening.

When it says 'Delays possible', do they mean in getting to the Premiership?

If only.

More likely referring to our next win.

Am I right in hearing the sell out away end will be singing their support for Nigel Pearson today ???

 

Blimey, if true imagine a huge majority of the home fans joining in !!!!! 

And with it being on Sky TV too !

The hierarchy’s stupidity exposed to a national/worldwide audience.

The ultimate humiliation.

We cannot keep hiring and firing managers. It’s time to consolidate and face up to facts that we are a Mid table championship side. It’s time to support the manager and the club and team and forget all about Pearson time. Will tell if the hierarchy have made the wrong decision come on you reds

He's had enough time.

The guy is clearly out of his depth and out of ideas, so why delay the inevitable ?

Is there a link for the catch up version?

Is that the same as the saucy version?

Isn't goals conceded worse despite club apologists claiming Liam has tightened us up?

Got the right hairstyle, but didn't think he was into 60s reggae.

Brazil needlessly playing in that blue kit.

Should have got the fans singing ...

"It's just like watching ... Millwaaall !"

As soon as anyone says Manning's career is heading south ............

Tinnion immediately intervenes with

"ampton !"

Such a mature thread. Absolute cringe overload 

 

Enjoy !

The criticism of Manning's interviews is so unfair according to some.

They claim, that no matter what he says, he just can't win.

hmm ......"just can't win"?

Yeh, that sounds right: same for both on and off the pitch.

Let us have a really good display and a thumping victory on Friday and then nobody will make any comments about his interviews. I really can't see that happening by the way and I am far from convinced he will be in post for much longer, but really hoping for City's sake and his sake he can turn this mess around.

Easy

"mess this."

Can anyone tell me what this final push is? What are we pushing for? 

I just want Manning to push off.

Would think this time of the season, tough physical sessions is the last thing the players need. Is he saying  he took over an unfit squad ?

Agree.

And this is where we’ll probably get three further serious injuries.

i will give you my joe bryan shirt if you can get her to sit on his face for the next 3 years

By look of his face, he may already have had that “pleasure”.

Pass me the bucket !

Southampton has been the straw that the drowning rats have been clutching in sheer desperation.

But such a flimsy and inconsequential lifeline won’t stop them sinking further.

One swallow does not make a summer. 

But in Tinnion’s parallel universe, it apparently does.

That's exactly why he needs to go now. 

Anyone willing/able to rearrange and share the lyrics of "Go Now !" by the Moody Blues, (which, incidentally, sounds like a good alternative name for the Blue Few).

A song to belt out at the Gate (against Leicester or thereafter) when it becomes even more blindingly obvious that Manning is a disaster.

More me, the writing is already on the wall and it's too late.

But for those  few kindly souls still willing to give him a chance to work a miracle and turn things round, all I can say is, that if Manning pulls off the impossible, I will personally fork out the 50p for Tinnion to enjoy a night of unbridled passion with the hag fair maiden, Irene.

It’s all speculation about the “8 games to turn it round”.

And even if this was the case, what does this actually mean in reality?

Knowing our three numpties, they will not set Manning a specific points target, because that will leave them with no wriggle room.

If he secures a measly 5 points from the last eight games, they will probably frame that into having turned things round and good enough reason to carry on with this shambolic project.

Tough as it might seem to some, I’d set Manning a target of 15 points minimum from these remaining games, to make up for the appallingly low points haul he has already accrued.

He should be judged on his entire tenure, and not solely on these last 8 games.

The bloke seems to be mentioned in almost every post at the moment, and there are people talking about chanting his name at the next home game

If you're that enamored with Manning, why don't you chant his name at the next game.

I'm sure he'd appreciate your vocal support.
