Who was the Only player who went to every end of the ground to clap the fans and Not one otherCity player was left on the pitch.
Scored a goal and even Merson on Sky Sports said it was a goal.
He is a small player, yet Dave Jones instructed high balls in to the box???
Gave 110%.
rem he hasnt played a full game foe over 4 months.
Yes I am sticking up for Feeney as I wish the other players would give 110% .

agree with you annis...... 100%..... totally commited..... but why has the other feeney thread been locked?

Annis, you are right you cant fault his effort but I don't think he adds anything to what we've already got. Surely for he own sake he must need a move, it must be soul-destroying know you'll never get a run in the team.

Annis all for supporting players and we love a player that will try - Warren is definitely that and I have seen him play plenty when he was at Bournemouth but we need better players than him to get to the prem

I missed the first half, but I have to say when he received the ball to foot he was looking for lay off's linked with McCormack for a few chances. BUT there was no support from central midfield. We're not going to score too many goals until its sorted. Come back soon McPhail.

Just a shame we havent 11 passionate players on the pitch, if we did we would be coasting at the top of the league :(

Two totally separate issues here.

The first in my opinion he is just not good enough at this level.

Second, his effort and commitment should not be the exception, so why should it be upheld as some great asset.

If anyone watched WBA V Forest last night, at the end of the game Billy Davies (Who I really don't like, but he seems to be a top manager) strode onto the pitch towards the Forest fans and made the odd one or two who were about to go down the tunnel do likewise. That manager would not allow his players to treat their supporters with the same level of contempt that most of ours show us. However, like managers in any industry will know, if you allow people to get away with something for too long it becomes the norm.

City are rotten throughout its management layers from the Riddler to DJ, the quicker we cut out this cancer, the quicker we can inject the passion THROUGHOUT the the club which is sadly missing at present.

Re: ANSWER THIS ONE THEN

Sat Jan 09, 2010 6:58 pm

Just a thought , but is Feeney playing in the position best suited to him ? He still seems a bit "lightweight" as a striker , but his touch and effort are great , so would he be better suited playing wide and running at fullbacks with the ball at his feet ?

Re: ANSWER THIS ONE THEN

Sat Jan 09, 2010 6:58 pm

annis i know feeney is your mate,but its getting drawn out now the whole feeney saga,fairplay for clapping fans,give me a few grand and i will,the others got no balls to clap, feeney done ok today, held the ball up,like i knew he would,the yes men gang will join feeneys quality etc etc,but me for one wont,he is a honest lad but is not the answer,plain and simple....i look at the bigger picture we need wholesale changes throughout the side,we lack ability,pace,hunger,feeney is one of a lot who should go and play where they can have an impact,my honest opinion as usual. we are struggling massively,we need quality brought in,not squad players :!:

Re: ANSWER THIS ONE THEN

It was really bad luck for Joshua Magennis getting injured, which is why Feeney got on . I thought the young lad did a great job, gutted for him.

Re: ANSWER THIS ONE THEN

Sat Jan 09, 2010 7:02 pm

Feeney gave 100% fair play to him
but i dont think he gives us an extra option
i just dont think he is up to the championship standard
i think league one is more his league

but im willing to give him support however long he is in the city shirt :ayatollah:

Because most of our players havent got commitment and thats why its a MAJOR ISSUE.

Yes you are absolutely right, most havent got any passion/commitment, however that should not be used as a way of putting Feeney on a pedestal, instead any decent Chief Exec/Chairman would see this as dressing room apathy and change the manager, who clearly can no longer inspire or motivate this group of players.

I think you are right Gary, Feeney is no target man and that showed today. He could play off a target man, out wide in a 4-3-3 or what I would have liked today, up front with Chopra with McCormack just behind those 2.

Re: ANSWER THIS ONE THEN

Sat Jan 09, 2010 8:12 pm

Annis, it is great that he's commited. He was clearly trying his best today, I don't think he stopped running. I agree that the tactis we played didn't suit him, and that ideally he'd be given a run of games to get 'match fit'. BUT, is that a gamble we should be taking? We've got Jay, Chops, and Ross, who are better strikers (in my opinion). There's a saying, form is temorary; class is permanent.

Fair play, I thought that despite knowing he's been totally unwanted by his own manager since practically the minute he walked into the club, and being aware that he's never had any sort of run in the side to prove to DJ and our demanding supporters that he can hack it - He had a more than decent game bearing in mind his lack of first team football in months.
I for one was willing him to have a great game and stuff it down DJs throat and score the winner :D

Sadly, his goal was disallowed, but on effort and desire I was pleased for him, and thought he had a better touch than I was expecting.
Best of luck to him in my opinion, I hope he gets an opportunity to stake his claim for a place in the squad on a regular basis. And yes, how refreshing to see a player actually do all 4 sides of the ground at the end - Good on you Warren :ayatollah:

Got to admit that I wasn't happy that he was coming on as he's never looked much good in the past but I thought he worked hard with very little help or service today. I still don't think he'll get many goals at this level but he certainly took a step forward today.

It was his goal and Merson on Sky said there was nothing wrong with it.

Re: ANSWER THIS ONE THEN

Three things:

1. Feeney gives his all I agree
2. He just is'nt good enough for this level
3. Jones should have brought him off for Chopra and not Mcormack.

The game was'nt right for him for a whole game to go and win it.
