I give up with Mehmeti, 18 minutes left, not even brought on for that. Weimann meanwhile who has been awful comes on, what has Mehmeti done to be given no time at all?!

Don't worry he will come on in the 87th minute.

[Open End Numb Legs]

I assumed mid week that Mehmeti must have a minor knock, 87 mins + added time is not worth it.

[Searles]

That penalty call is a shocking decision

[redkev]

There is a big thing at the moment about abusing officials but they really are shocking the past few seasons I don’t understand why .

As for city it’s exactly the same as a lot of games this season , we have no doubt upped our game but I know it sounds obvious we need to be better at both ends of the pitch , but more recently it’s about the top end of the pitch which is letting us down more than the defensive end , I would say without doubt in out last 3 games if we put the chances away early in the game we win the game ,  we have a Rick in us at the back we know that but we have improved , we need that improvement up top now

King looks done in, so no surprise Williams coming on

I mean if that's the case don't bother dressing him up for the bench and having him run on at all, it just infuriates fans when we're struggling to score to have a player who causes problems given next to no time at all to influence the game.

Typical City performance.

Pretty well on top, struggle to add to the one goal lead and then contrive to faff about and let Rotherham back into the game.

Oh, not forgetting the referee demonstrating a complete lack of consistency over penalty decisions at each end of the pitch, which is pretty much par for the course this season.

Referee probably thought it would spoil the game if he sent one of their players off in the first half!

[redkev]

Looks like Burnley need to win at the gate to be champions ,  please please let’s not have our bellies tickled again .

[Spike]

Makes no sense at all that we're playing so many long balls too, Rotherham are bigger and stronger than us, get the ball on the floor, pass and move and make them play where they're not comfortable rather than playing a long ball up where they are comfortable defending it!

[Redrascal2]

If we take this form to next season we will be down at the bottom again. When is this going to be sorted out. Never turning our possession and play in to goals. Letting soft goals in. It just goes on and on. Nothing Pearson does seems to be able to stop it.

[old_eastender]

Terrible passing from us this half, throughout the side.

They just equalised.

Typical City.  Promise so much , deliver so little.  The story of the club with rare exceptions, which we fail to build upon

 

[old_eastender]

Wells on for Conway for last 7 mins

 

[Spike]

Wells on for Conway.... I can't. 

[old_eastender]

Rotherham hit the post and unlucky not to be given 2nd pen.

I know what you mean but penalty wise there is so much of an anomaly that can't be the case.

Scott will be sold,, a percentage of this will be utilised to strengthen.

Scouting & recruitment is my concern.

It was never a pen

[Spike]

I like how people are saying that evens it up, let's just forget they should have been down to 10 men and probably two goals behind had the ref made the right call earlier in the game. As for us, we look like we've given up.

[RedinSpain]

Thought that shout much stronger than the one given.

[old_eastender]

Bell looks knackered

Two minute appearance by Mehmeti?

Yeah but we don't have a bright young talent who plays in that position to come on..... oh wait.

Now the ref stops us from counter-attacking and Weimann gets booked for pointing out what a useless c*** he is!

[Peter1450]

So promising after the brilliant header from Conway and yet this half we look totally out of ideas

[MelksRed]

 

Great save by MOL

 

[Midred]

What was Scott booked for?

[petehinton]

This is a ******* joke. Pearson will probably get a touchline ban for what he says at full time at this rate and rightfully so. ******* robbed and I’m sure all we’ll get is yet another totally useless apology. 
 

On another day we’re winning this 3-0. Story of the season.
