If Mancini gets sacked / Jay situation

Can they take Bellamy back in January? I think they might be able to as we didn't pay a loan fee but I hope I am wrong.

Also to be honest I think we can't complain too much about Jay's yellow on saturday or his suspension as he should have really got a red against Leeds and maybe a 2/3 game suspension.

I'm surprised Dave Jones left him on for so long? Given we were 3-1 up and looking good for the 3 points perhaps he could have gone off and let Keogh run around for the last hour or so.

good news he wont get sacked they are still in 4th place. and you cant recall season long loans unless serious injury or retirement

plus havnt Man C nominated a full squad of 25 for this season already ?

Why on earth would Jones have taken Jay off on 40 mins?

That can be changed in January because of transfer window purchases

That would be a very, very odd decision if he did

Trying to be clever picking him up on that. Wouldn't it be 30 mins if last hour or so?

I think Bellamy would refuse to play for Man City to be honest, as he loves it at Cardiff, leaving Man City with a squad of 24.

We were winning 3-1 but it was still a uncomfortable lead. Had Norwich pulled one back then it would of been serious backs to the wall. So i was glad he left jay on.

isnt it a season long loan? therefore Man City can only recall him if they want to sell him.

Yep I remember him doing that 2 seasons ago when 2 nil up and they came back to draw 2 all.

The way I nread this is that unless they included a clause to allow them to recall him in January to transfer him, they cannot do so.

When we signed Koumas on the years loan from West Brom a few years back, it was made plain that there was such a clause in the contract. All the noises from our end have suggested that we have Craig for the year with no conditions, so I don't think there is such a clause this time.
