I think Nasri's effort - or lack thereof - being the third member of the wall when Van Persie hit the winner from the free kick needs to be noted too.

Fucking soft effort to hide behind the middle man of the wall and just stick your leg out like a soft cock. Weak as piss.

All this about Ferdinand stirring up the man city supporters is crap!! If you watched the game Rooney was getting pelted by coins when he was taking a corner; way before this incident !!

So, running over to them celebrating in front of them pulling your shirt up to show them doesn't wind them up

Players have been celebrating in front of opposition supporters since the year dot and haven"t had coins thrown at them. City should play their next home game as a lockout or better still; just let the away supporters in.

YOU CAN MOAN ABOUT LAZY NATIONAL STEREOTYPING ALL YOU LIKE, BUT DESERTING THE ARMY IS KNOWN AS 'TAKING FRENCH LEAVE' FOR A REASONAlthough nine different people have been charged in connection with assorted shenanigans ranging from racially aggravated public disorder to possession of a Class A drug at yesterday's Manchester derby, two people who were there remain conspicuously at large and likely to evade justice. One is the cowardly halfwit who almost took Rio Ferdinand's eye out with a coin thrown from the safety of the crowd, while the other is the cowardly Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri, whose crime of deserting a defensive wall could only have been more stereotypically French if it turned out he'd actually sparked up a Gauloises after nipping in behind Edin Dzeko to avoid getting hit by the ball.
While thetan thespian Tom Cruise, who was present, may have thought the Manchester City winger had been abducted on behalf of the Galactic Confederacy's alien emperor Xemu, the player's manager seemed under no illusion about what was responsible for his disappearance from the white heat of battle at such a pivotal moment. "If it hits you in the face, it hits you in the face," harrumphed Roberto Mancini, in a withering tone that suggested his player might be getting hit in the face later anyway, albeit not by a football.
Luckily for Nasri, his team-mate Mario Balotelli also shipped some of the blame for Manchester City's defeat, with the Italian's only contribution of note coming in the form of a spectacularly dirty look aimed in the direction of his gaffer as he stormed towards the tunnel after being hooked early in the second half. "When you have a player with Mario's quality, you can't believe that he throws his quality out of the window," said Mancini, a man who is clearly pining for the good old days when the only things being thrown out of the window by his young Italian charge were less expensive objects such as darts and fireworks.
On the subject of throwing things, the former Manchester United midfielder and MUTV presenter Paddy Crerand was involved in a tedious and tetchy exchange on Radio Five Live this morning, after initially failing to understand a question about whether or not Ferdinand might have provoked people into firing missiles by celebrating United's winner within tuppence-chucking range of some City fans.
"He gets struck by a coin that somebody's thrown from about 15 or 20 yards, it's not like he was standing in front of their supporters jumping up and down," said Crerand eventually, neglecting to mention that footballers should be allowed to celebrate last-minute winners wherever they like without fear of being blinded by morons who quite literally have more money than sense. Moments after Ferdinand had been hit by the coin, Joe Hart was on hand to step between the clearly incensed defender and a City-supporting pitch invader, perhaps saving the Manchester United player from doing something that might have earned him the kudos of millions and a lengthy spell on the FA's naughty step. Indeed, if the goalkeeper had moved even a fraction as quickly to block Wayne Rooney's opener, it's safe to say his side might have won the match.

if according to that article the guy who threw the coin at Ferdinand is a half wit what fraction of a wit does Ferdinand posess?

I hope the idiot who threw the coin is caught and banned from football for life.

Quick to slate fans of other clubs, strangely quiet or defensive when it's one of the many you "support".

I can tell you that if an Owls supporter was caught throwing a coin at spectator I would want him banned for life. Throwing coins at players is simply gutless and deserves to be punished accordingly.

trouble reported at adelaide united on friday night and I've seen nothing condemning the adelaide fans

trouble at sheff wed v leeds and i don't remember you condemning the wednesday fans.

I don't know if there's been any trouble at comets or croydon or any other teams you also support.

The issue here is the incident at the Manchester derby and deserves to be condemned.

U obviously didn't watch the game then. Rio was facing the United supporters when he was celebrating.

so he was nowhere near the city fans then. How did it hit him where it did if he wasn't facing him?

These man city fans are not only great shots but they can get swing in the air as well, were they polishing one side of the coin all afternoon?

true fans get excited, true fans get wound up, true fans do silly things in the heat of the moment.

Been going on for many a year, as long as I remember.

He was always going to be near city fans considering it was there home gane, yet he was celebrating with the United fans

Obviously you are not street smart, just hide behind your club and ride there reputation as being thugs

Have you actually been to a big game like this? Where am I riding my clubs reputation, I don't even mention them. BUT if you wind people up you can't really complain when they get wound up.

I guess man u only had a few fans in the ground and there was no segregation either. If you'd been to a game like this you would know it would have had to have been a big and great shot to have hit him if he was in front of man u fans.
