We’re cursed
|
Is there some sort of curse over us, Tony Gale, Manny O, Gerrard, Dodgy red cards, literally everyone scoring their first goal against us. Please make it stop…

I'm not sure the curse had a way tonight. Conduit defending and a tactically naive manager are the reasons we're out

Nonsense as ever Mike. That sending off was a 50 50 for a foul against the attacked who backed into cresswell and a tactically naive manager does not take a low-spend outfit to this stage of the competition and a couple of strong league seasons.
It’s the ridiculous expectation that a few managerial tweaks on game day makes or breaks a season - the real work is done before kickoff.

We're not unlucky or cursed, we're badly run. January was a huge chance to push on, and GSB are to blame.
When I'm sober, I'll debate this point.

Regret telling that old gypsy woman to do one when trying to sell me that lucky heather in green St in the 1980s now.

Hitting the woodwork 3 times, terrible defending for 2 of the goals and a sending off, takes some going to recover from that

Northern Sold we beaten Seville (6 times winners) , who were second in the league in Spain. We made the rest of Europe sit up and take notice.

LOL, how many times have I seen something about us being cured, although granted its does feel that way at times!
Combination of things have seen this Cup dream end, we can point to the lack of activity in January, but I suppose you have to trust the manager on these things, if the right players were not available what’s he supposed to do sign someone for the sake of it? All this blame the board is a bit pathetic though, everything points to funds being available but Moyes didn’t fancy anyone rather than GSB withholding funds, then some questionable refereeing and then our players going to sleep at critical moments or a rash moment of madness as we saw from Cresswell, maybe harsh against Lyon but hung himself out to dry in Frankfurt.
Horrible day as really thought we could do it, just have to dust ourselves off and make sure we qualify for Europe again next season.
End of the day though, how many seasons do we spend finishing with just about hanging on to our PL place? At least we got a decent Cup run and some great away days and not many will forget Seville at home or Lyon away in a hurry.

Re: We’re cursed

Some of you need to get a fucking grip. We are vying for a regular top 6 spot and we’ve had a fantastic run to the semis in Europe and lost to a team that knocked Barcelona out.
This is better than we’ve had it for what, 35-odd years. Now it’s fucking disappointing as we know what could have been - but all the talk of rotten club and not good enough is ridiculous.
For the slating of Moyes, I also don’t think this is a flash-in-the-pan like we had with Pardew or Bilic. Moyes seems to be building solid foundations.

It's long been a belief. I know my Grandfather used to say how unlucky we were and we're going back a good many years there.

No, obviously there is no curse, but there is such a thing as luck, which can make a massive difference in football. You can't tell me that hitting the woodwork three times in the first leg is not unlucky. And last night we had more shots on target than Frankfurt. This tie could very easily have gone the other way.

We are not cursed.. the fault lies with Moyes and the owners for not improving the squad in the summer and winter windows simple as that.

Re: We’re cursed

Not cursed but mistakes at times have been made, but that's the same for all Clubs. Are Man City cursed for not winning the Champions League again after being seconds away from another Final or should Guardiola be sacked because he hasn't won it despite the multi millions spent?
