to be fancying Roberto Mancini..

[Clawdy]

just a little bit? He's no Jose Morinho,but as football managers go....

Jose was rank ....Roberto on the other hand has that certain something ......

YANBU.

He has a twinkle in his eyes...

and he wears a classy scarf

A friend of mine met him in a bar a while ago.

He was polite and very tolerant of her excited 5 year old son.

He looks like Richard Madeley.. but anything is better than seeing Alex Ferguson's blotchy face gurning with a piece of chewing gum rolling around in his gob...

Really

Was going to say YABU but as you've acknowledged he's no Jose (my fantasy husband) I think fair enough if he floats your boat, its not like you're lusting after Harry Red-face-knapp.

YANBU Jose is indeed the special one but Mancini is a little bit of italian loveliness.

YANBU
both Bobby Manc and The Chosen one know how to rock a scarf, which is a rare quality in a man

Oh he has a definite twinkle,and dresses with inimitable Italian style!Deffo on silver fox list.

yessqueakytoycouldn't agree with you more about Alex F,but really can't see the Richard Madeley thing!

YANBU.

DH sat in his 'seat' yesterday but the scarf wearing magic doesn't seem to be catching as yet...!

He manages the best team in the land, another reason to fancy him Having met him in the tunnel at The Swamp (aka Old Trafford) when my son was City mascot last season when Rooney scored with THAT overhead kick, he was very charming and polite but quietly focusing on winning.

We got our own back with the 6-1 drubbing, lets hope we can repeat that at the end of April!

feedthegoat I sat in that seat too.

I also seem to recall singing your dong in the Gene Kelly at Maine Road a few times too.

Dong? Song!

Me too mankyscotslass (north stand/main stand G block exile for the biggies as they were the restricted view ones)!

I was rather taken with the heated seats in the directors box tbh but more than happy to sit on Mancini's lap should he wish to share!

Said to dh yesterday that I can't get to grips with COMS, it leaves me with no sense of direction.

YANBU at all. The more I am forced to watch him and his team, the more I'm liking that twinkle in his eye and the less arsed I am about all the pre-match and after-match crap I have to endure.

Oh and Richard Madeley wishes!!

YANBU - I am a heterosexual male and not a City fan, but can see Roberto has, as the French would say, a certain 'I do not know what'
