Clattenberg appointed for the derby

[Stephen Paul]

My first reaction was ffs

Good or bad?

[KunDB]

Bad, very bad as he has an agenda against City imo.

[Ludo]

Wasn't he the ref in the 6-1?

[bluebrendan]

Wasn't he the ref in the 6-1?

Yes, he and Dean are probably the best of a poor bunch just now. He's been good and bad for City over the years.

[KunDB]

Sent Kompany off when playing for Belgium recently.

[Leewonpen]

Ref is the least of our worries at the moment!

[zacc]

Well how unusual a controversial ref for a controversial game!! 

[Stephen Paul]

thought he done ok

[bry the guy]

I thought he was ok to

[Stephen Paul]

he could have made Vinney walk

[Swiss]

yep.. What do you think about their first, obstruction on Zabba???

[gavin]

Plenty of shit decisions from him today. But he can ref better than pellers can organise a defence so he was far from our biggest problem.

[bluebrendan]

Could have been worse if he'd sent Kompany off, Clattenburg had no influence on the result.

[KunDB]

Could have been worse if he'd sent Kompany off, Clattenburg had no influence on the result.

Clattenburgh wanted to send Kompany off, it was the linesman who saved him (wrongly so in my opinion).

It is incredible and incomprehensible how far VKs level of performance has plummeted in such a short time. I would not even put him on the bench given his current form.

[Swiss]

The alternative is Mangala

[bry the guy]

The alternative is Mangala

He can only get better

[alexsam]

For the foul Kompany looked as if he injured himself just as he went to make a tackle and simply chose to dive in then as he knew he was out of the game

Clattenberg in my opinion let a few elbows and barges go against us especially from Fellini
