I thought we wouldn't get back into the game and we might have to concede defeat but I didn't expect to concede three goals in the second half.” When your own manager has given up at HT then what’s the damn point. Is this is your attitude Roy, please do the right thing and resign. How can people critise the players when that's the attitude of the manager? Altight lads, you don't stand a chance, get out their and give city a damn good training ground exercise!

Ok so we lost against a team far far superior to us in all respects. However what I saw was every member of our team doing their best and working extremely hard. The fact is we are nowhere near good enough to beat a team like CITEH playing the way they are. So let’s all chill out and save our criticism for when we lose to a team we have a chance of beating. COYP In all honesty we dont even deserve to be on the same pitch as them. We bring nothing to this league whatsoever and id imagine Sky would love to see the back of us

If we dont go this season then it will be next season. The rebuild is too vast and the money isnt there.

Tonight was embarrassing but some will conclude that they expected a comprehensive defeat against a top-class team. Agreed Willow. The point tonight (as with so many other matches) was the tactics from Roy to play so narrow and allow a team, who play with width and are so good with the ball, to have the ball and let them knock it around was wrong. But to go a goal down and literally offer nothing different in response is why so many of us are fed up.

Fvck the tactics all I saw was a group of players that were old, tired and couldn’t compete. The last time we kept trying to go at a team of that level we conceded seven. The plan would be to try to stay in it until the last ten and try to nick something. No more no less. Townsend’s mistake and Gundogan’s strike put an end to that. Once they’ve got the pressure off they’ll kill you.

Mr Hodgson probably expected to lose but I think the 4-0 has really irked him due to the affect it has had on our goal difference.

But to go a goal down and literally offer nothing different in response is why so many of us are fed up. Try being realistic, City unbeaten in 14 games and only let in one goal in 7, that was an own goal. Without Schlupp and Zaha our attacking options are limited.
