Hope he lobs a few quid behind the bar for them, just to cheer up the folk that have booked a special night out there. :-)

I thought that exactly. Really nice idea by the strange man, but imagine being there.

Does it make us bad people ?

So many stories coming out about him he's practically an urban legend......the new one is he's filled his car with petrol and paid for everyone on the forecourt to fill up too.

I think it's all a scam to get us to spend money in Manchester!

How many games is he going to be suspended for? Or was he just off balance?

on the evidence of that gif I can't see how that is anything other than a deliberate stamp...

Some people are saying that the fact Mario didn't look around means it was unintentional. Lets stop kidding around, he knows exactly where Parker is when he kicks out.

You are joking, right? His natural movement would be to bring his foot forward, not stamp it back.

Well yes...I think it is possible he was trying to ground his foot. Also the speed it happened at, I'm not convinced he could have calculated a stamp.

At the same time, it doesn't look good and like you say doesn't seem natural.

He'll be banned and I don't think he can have any complaints even if it was accidental. When he looks at it he'll have to admit it looks bad!

Shoot me down in flames time.
There are many many knobheads that play football in the Premiership, some of who I really detest (Wayne Arsehairhead Rooney and Joey Jackoff Barton jointly topping my list), but I actually quite like our cute cuddly Mario. I like his extremely nonchalant attitude to scoring, makes a very nice change from the mouth frothing badge kissing cartwheelin' baby-rocking bollocks that has preceded him over the last decade. Go for it Balotelli (I mean... Ignore it Balotelli)

He actually is good though, there's a reason Mancini has picked him for all their big games this season, save yesterday when he's not fully fit.
