Lamborghini Out Of Storage, Robinho's Back In Town

On the surface good news and if he starts in the drssing room Viera can down him. Its obviously why Mancini kept Viera - the enforcer - and got rid of Bellemy the rebel.

Spud 1 I like many of us simply can't answer your questions. I suppose we'll be kept in the dark and treated like mushrooms until someone from the club comes out and tells us. In the meantime I'm off to put a pair of underpants over my head, stuff to pencils up my nose and walk around saying, WIBBLE.

It will inevitably take a few weeks to entangle - given the World Cup, friendly internationals etc but Mancini has seen it all before.

Spud1 - they weren't his signings and as you saw in your 1-0 win they weren't good enough when it counted. We are aiming for the top and needed to make changes.

Willy ,I,m a City fan.I think I had my nickname long before Spurs.

Yes I did RobsonGreensleeves. Talk about being suicidal, bloody hell I nearly cut my wrists!! What a chump.

I have to say I have never been a big fan of Robinho ....I think he is a lazy self indulgent ..(but talented) player. However if Mancini thinks he is worth another try lets hope he takes it and changes his attitude.

I agree Roy, even if he stays who is to say he wont get cold feet as soon as the season starts and want to go again? Its a huge risk, but at the same time, he is already a City player so its not like we are gambling money on him, but we are gambling responsibility.

At the moment he's an extra. I can see him now in my mind's eye, not chasing back.. and standing there.. desolate.. like. Have you got the right metaphor though 5thcol? I'm sure we'd all like him to become Harry in Henry 1V Part 2, where he's got rid of Falstaff, Pistol and Craig. We could dress him up at the gates of Harfleur, and teach him not only the speech... 'Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our Brazilian dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
as modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;
Let pry through the portage of the head
like the brass cannon; let the brow o'erwhelm it
as fearfully as doth a galled rock
o'erhang and jutty his confounded base,
swill'd with the wild and wasteful ocean.
Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
to his full height. On, on, you noblest English.
Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof!
Fathers that, like so many Alexanders,
Have in these parts from morn till even fought
and sheathed their swords for lack of argument:
Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
that those whom you call'd fathers did beget you.
Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
and teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman,
Whose limbs were made in England, show us here
the mettle of your pasture; let us swear
that you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
for there is none of you so mean and base,
that hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry City, Eastlands and by George' ...but the context. We'd be off to a flier... Sorry, just got back to it. This was a midnight prank. Which might get mangled by the Vital format. Later...

So Roy,what's your thoughts on Nobiniho again.

In one word. Nobheadho.
