After City's announcement yesterday, what are peoples thoughts on the impact it'll have on the rest of their season? Personally, I think it might have a negative effect, which just might give an advantage to the other teams in the title chase?!
Thoughts please?

Or they could go the other way and send Pellegrini out with a bang, either way i couldn't care less how they finish there season.

If I was a city player I would want to be playing my best for the rest of the season. I wouldn't want, in my opinion the best manager in the world since fergie retired, to be coming to my club and getting rid of me.

It is a clear transition, where by the end of January they have made it clear who the next manager will be and it is a very high quality one. City have planned this a long time and prepared the ground, they even kept the existing manager on board to do the transition. My guess is the team will be excited and positive, looking forward to a manager who they will feel will take them on to win the top prizes and they will want to be part of that. It rather differs from SAF's transition doesn't it.

The only person I can see throwing their toys out the pram is Yaya.
Everyone else will be playing like their arse is on fire trying to prove they should be in the new managers thinking come the start of next season.
This could be the boost that carries City to the title this season.

Red Man, I think your spot on.
If we take off our red tinted glasses, it is obvious that from the new owners taking over at citeh, they had a clear plan for the future, 8 years down the line, they have a good squad, extended their ground, built great training facilities and appointed a top quality manager add to that the trophies they have won it has been a success story.
However, their commitment to success on the field has made them weak in the official noodle partners market.

You are right, that could be an area they are weak in. In time our songs will perhaps be adapted to "20 partners Man Utd" and have a commercial break, rather than "20 times Man Utd", they will never match that.
