FA Cup Final 2011 - Manchester City v Stoke City

[Teflon Don]

Be great if Stoke score here.

[Welsh]

Glad I don't buy the paper anymore, tomorrow will be jizzing over the Manc trophy wins today.

[Red House]

Well, at least Mancini may well stay in place, a contender of less next season!

Micah Richards breaching the watershed there

[Mendoza]

Micah Richards just said 'fuck'

[Guest PurpleNose]

Haha. Balotelli much funnier.

 

"I was shit, can I say that?"

[Teflon Don]

"My season was shit - can I say that?" - absolute genius from the mentalist Balotelli there.

[Welsh]

Not the first time he's swore near/on a camera

was that on ITV? ESPN are shite.

[Glen C]

I still think silva is overrated.

[Redder Lurtz]

A "fuckin" from Richards and a "shit" from Balotelli. (And no mention of the "fuckin" from Richards by Chiles).

 

Balotelli: "I've been shit. Can I say that?" Interviewer nods with a stupid big grin on his face. Brilliant.

[Mendoza]

Gabriel Clarke with his usual snide line of questioning. Good response from Joe Hart.

[Pidge]

Haha, Hart is really a little pissed off with Balotelli there.

 

Starting to like the mental bastard a bit.

Hart was excellent there. Showed far more restraint than I would have.

 

"Fuck United, and fuck you"

[Redder Lurtz]

That has to be the quickest lid-on-the-head ever.

[The Party Boy]

I miss winning trophys, can't wait till were there again.

[Anubis]

City deserved that. They went for it from the off. A curious lack of fight from Stoke. It was almost like they froze.

[Welsh]

Would love for balotelli to die the foul mouthed cunt!

 

Straight from Facebook^ Stupid fucking United fans....forgot about Rooney have we?

[Teflon Don]

That has to be the quickest lid-on-the-head ever.

 

Paddy Power were taking bets on that - Tevez was 5/1 favourite to be the first to do it.

"It's like gold-y and bronze-y...."

According to Clive Tyldesley this bloke's name is Nigel de Young.

 

Next season he will become Nigel Young.

 

I thought City played OK today. Nothing superb, but they were less overawed by the occasion compared to Stoke. I suppose when your squad is chock full of players that have won World Cups, European Championships, Champions Leagues and various other titles, that is to be expected.

 

I thought the aforementioned de Young was man of the match, but Balotelli certainly turned up to play today. Silva needs the ball on his left foot too much. If he'd trusted his right foot he would have worked a much better chance for himself when Tevez played him through in the second half. As for Stoke, they were utterly predictable. Pennant was probably their best player on the day, but he had little end product.

 

Also, is it just me or were the FA Cup finals much better when they were being played in Cardiff? At Wembley, I think the grass is too long making it hard to zip the ball along the turf at pace. The games are slowed down far too much because of this, on top of the significance of the occasion and the nerves.

Bloody Keegan on ESPN, saying how he hopes his old club will now go on and be the dominant force in the league. This after he's been telling reporters how his LFC links are in the past. Charming.

[Redder Lurtz]

Paddy Power were taking bets on that - Tevez was 5/1 favourite to be the first to do it.

 

Haha that's class. We play that game every year (except the years the filth win it, when I don't bother watching).
