The results are (3369 votes):

50% voted for Mark Hughes is right, Mancini showed disrespect.
50% voted for Roberto Mancini is right, that gesture is not important.

Mark Hughes hit out at Roberto Mancini for snubbing him as they shook hands on his happy return to Eastlands. Hughes claims the Manchester City boss would not look him in the eye and pulled his hand away in disgust before marching off down the tunnel.

Mark Hughes: “Maybe I misread it, but I just didn’t think Roberto acknowledged the efforts of my team and how well we’d done by the manner of the way he offered his hand. Call me old fashioned, but that was my take on it.”

Roberto Mancini: “I heard that he said something, but I don’t understand what he said, I don’t know. There was nothing that happened between us during the game. He should be happy he got a draw against us and this is not important. The result is more important than these stupid things.”

Mancini was not fair here, he should have shaken hands with Hughes like a gentleman.
