Anyone else notice what looked like quite a lot of stray arms/elbows from the Brighton players on Saturday? I noticed a few off the ball incidents where City players got near a Brighton player then started holding their face.

I didn't see/hear anyone complain though, so it could have just been me...

Dirty seagulls! Yeah there were a few incidents I thought. That said it wouldn't hurt if we could show a bit of excess strength occasionally (within the laws of the game obviously)

Good point - yes I noticed that too. Especially Barry Corr having a good ole tussle with their number 6 (El Abd I think) - which from my (admittedly biased) point of view looked like he was trying to constantly provoke Corr.

I'd go along with that to the point I thought Tis might sub Barry before he reacted and got himself sent off.
