Manchester City v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

I hope Holteender in the sky hasn't done anything stupid.

Apart from post on the match-thread of course.

Chuffed to be wrong.  Great performance and well done to the lads.

Seems there were one or two more on here thought we'd get tonked though....

Not me. This is our cup this one and we will not do a Blose cause we will be nowhere near relegation.

It's great listening to the Radio Manky phone in....thought we were moaners but by golly they are having a go

Link?

BBC iplayer.....other stations....Radio Manchester...they're on till 11

Thx.  They seem to be whining about selling A Johnson. Ha

Anyone know if there's any truth in the rumour of what the City fans sang during the 19th minute?

Can you elaborate. I would guess only ones at the match could confirm as nothing was mentioned in the match thread.

Excellent. Great stuff Villa.

liked Lambert reaction to barrys bad challenge. right in the face of mancini

Whilst the reaction was fun, I didn't think it was a foul as Barry seemed to just stand there. Maybe it looked worse from another angle. But I did think Barry's delicate side foot into the corner was a great Villa goal.

Nearly as good as Ridgewells Knee, in my view.

I noticed he disappeared from the match thread when things started to go right.

For once I waited for the inevitable and it didn't happen. Splendid.  A great response to the weekend's under-performance.

Those who were saying it will be an up and down season seem to have a point.

HEITS: yes, lots of people thought we'd get beat. But no-one else was taking the piss out of us.

Wonderful performance and result. And Gabby's back as we'll. Get in!
Bring on those Smethwick wankers!

[gervilla]

I think it's safe to say Gabby is up for it .
His first goal was superb.

I didnt disappear at all.  If that were true then why would I be posting now? And why not just celebrate the win instead of singling out Villa fans for fearing the worst.  Go and pick up your winnings for clearly backing us with thousands at 8/1.

seems like Gabby had a great game and Albrighton to,
 causing a few selection headaches for Lambert

Good one to with Benteke took most of the defenders out in one move, then a cool slot past the keeper.

The Mancs are calling for Mancini's head on the radio!  Unreal.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Bloody brilliant.

I've heard that some City fans sang "let him die" during the 19th minute. I'm just trying to get confirmation if that's right or not.
