Yeah when you've got the players that can make it work, tbh and I fekin hate admitting it but the spuds have better individual players than us and whatever you say about parker :blah: he's better than we have by fekin miles in his position.
If they have better players, why aren't Sp*rs way out in front of us? - are you suggesting Wenger is the ace in our pack? :rubchin:
Yes.....
Finally, a Wenger supporter! - I thought this entire forum was against him!!! :barscarf: :lol:

They're going to finish about 10 points off last year having not been in the title race for months and months and another dismal CL showing. Mancini fearing for his job?
He's gone for sure :wink:

Don't really buy into Spurs having better players. Certainly not to anything more than a marginal extent.

In addition to proclaiming Sandro to be world class they also rave about how good fatty Huddlestone is... says it all.

Well when they come 3rd/4th and we finish 5th I will come back and ask the same question :wink:

Wenger has to be sacked now after this spurs result, this is terrible, if we don't make champions league we will slip into obscurity for decades

Positives from that:

- Mancs are unlikely to win the league at our place
- I won 40 quid

The negatives are obvious

Interesting decision from City to give yaya toure such a long term contract, he looks to me to have lost his physical edge since last season. He was seriously coasting in that game. Still, I guess its monopoly money they're paying him with anyway. Dzeko was doing a very good Giroud impression too.

I've just realised that such is my habit for muting scum interviews I don't think I've ever heard Gareth Bale's voice. Is it proper welsh?

But like last season, there's nothing in it. Both teams are bobbing around 3rd/4th/5th position, and that's likely to change over the coming weeks, so when it's so tight, is it really that conclusive based on league position?

For me, the evidence over 2 seasons (regardless of how the last few fixtures end up) suggest they're both in the same sewage tank... desperately trying to finish on top where they can smell the rose garden above them, but ultimately still chest deep in excrement. :oops: :oops:

City were an absolute shambles in that last half an hour and got what they deserved. Fancy chucking on mugs like Sinclair. They had no fucking interest in getting a result today. Hope Wigan beat the fuckers in the cup final after that showing today

Sadly true. They coasted through the second half, trying to get by with as little effort as possible. Annoying, as the game was important for Sp*rs and Arsenal, but at the end of the season you can never guarantee both teams will take it seriously :(

Hopefully United are happy to cruise along with little interest next weekend, but I fear - even with the title wrapped up against Villa - Fergie will get his players motivated to beat us :?

Still, it's a chink of light. The game means far more to us than United, so maybe that'll make a difference.

Alright mate how's Glory Glory doing ? Planning the DVD of today's game yet ?


Mancini has had an absolute shocker today.

Huddlestone maybe a lard arsed fatso but he is the best passer of the ball in their team bar none. Why didn't Mancini change it and bring on Javi Garcia amazes me....another extra defensive body in midfield would have made all the difference. Huddlestone and Dembele were controlling the game and the Doltby was harrying and harrassing the City midfield.

Thankfully the title wil lbe wrapped up by the time the mancs cometo the Grove but we'll have to give that Judas c**t a guard of honour :banghead: . I'd like to say it would serve the board and AW right but it won't bother them one iota. :roll: :oops:

We'll be level with this vermin points wise by next w'end. Thank god for a vastly superior goal difference, just so long as Wigan don't decide to gift them another 9-1 and we rollover 2-8 :evil:

Then the game against the chavs becomes even more tasty. Got to wonder who the chavs hate more, as by the time they play that game they could have 3rd wrapped up and could be playing days after a Europa league final.

Wonder if their fans would prefer we miss out or the vermin.

I said we'd be 6th till Everton bottled it, and then 5th. Still think 5th by a point here or there.
