Shocking team selection, shocking formation.
But it's not tonight that cost us the title - it's the useless performances against Blackburn, Newcastle, Wigan and the last 10 minutes against Chelsea that have lost it.
Why, have City won the league?But it's not tonight that cost us the title - it's the useless performances against Blackburn, Newcastle, Wigan and the last 10 minutes against Chelsea that have lost it.
Oh no, they haven't and WE still have a chance!

All but won. We're pretty much down and out.Oh no, they haven't and WE still have a chance!
They won't slip up now.
The only thing I can't stand is when all the fans in the office start arguing about the money involved.

Don't agree - you could have said the same about us at the turn of the year and a series of good results plus the fact that they did slip up shifted the balance. Lots of things can still happen - City win by 6 points or 1 point and vice versa.They won't slip up now.

God defeatist or what. This was obviously the biggest deciding chance but it's not over. They could go and draw at Newcastle and it's wide open again. I'm quite impartial though so I guess I'm probably not as arsed as most on here.

It is a fair point, though - since Mansour arrived, City have spent £200m more than Fergie has spent in the entire history of the Premier League.The only thing I can't stand is when all the fans in the office start arguing about the money involved.

Not quite the same though is it
United have made tens of millions more than City from Champions League television rights over last 15 years. United have made millions more than City in global merchandising - all of which has helped them out-attract and out-buy City, until three years ago. It isn't fair City have limitless cash, but take them and Chelsea's owners out, and United would still be richest club in the world wouldn't they? And, just like the nineties, no United fan would think that unfair.
