Bridge jeering upsets Mancini

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini heaped scorn on Hull’s fans for booing Wayne Bridge after Manchester City slipped to a shock 2-1 defeat at the KC Stadium on Saturday. Bridge, back in action following two months out with a knee injury, was subjected to a number of chants about John Terry's alleged affair with his ex-girlfriend. "I think sometimes we have to have respect for people,” fumed Mancini afterwards. "It was not good, especially in the first half, as the people did not respect him." The Italian however refused to comment on the Terry situation but said he was happy to have Bridge back in action. "It was important he played and I hope in the next week he can improve. Wayne is an important player for us."
