sadly I have seen blues becoming arrogant already, even before last weekend. The price of success I suppose....

Don't get arrogance mixed up with ripping the piss out of arseholes who have been giving us the big un for 30 years. There's a MASSIVE difference.

No shit...

Nice arrogant response there...

The distinction is important. 30 years of stick from reds, and now we have the chance to ram it back down their throats. 30 years of arrogance and now we have the chance to shout it from the rooftops ..we are champions. lets enjoy it.

Its not just city who are enjoying this moment. check out the neutrals response to our win last sunday..many of the posts on that thread will enlighten you as to the depth of feeling against the arrogant traffrord rangers.

check out the sunderland fans singing bluemoon to fergie thread..an example of giving it back, ramming it down their throats..NOT arrogance, just banter.

This season's been a record-breaking season in many many ways, all positive to my knowledge, but now we've won the title for the third time in our history what about the records to keep us humble, to prevent against the scourge of ragdom, and to educate any newcomers to the ranks that although we're City and we're going places, and we have a proud history as strong as any, our history also means we need to retain a self-deprecating and ironic brand of humour and a level of humility which is absent from successful London clubs, the rags and Liverpool.

Fewest goals scored at home in a season: 10, Manchester City (2006–07)
Highest percentage of season goals scored in a single game: 18.6% (8/43), Middlesbrough (8–1 vs. Manchester City, 11 May 2008)
Most draws in a season (42 games): 18, joint record: Manchester City (1993–94)
Most consecutive draws in a season (38 or 42 games): 7, joint record: Manchester City (2009–10)
Only reigning English champions ever to be relegated (in 1938) - scoring more goals than any other team
Only team to score and concede over 100 goals in the same season (1957–58)
Relegated team with the highest goals scored, 89, in 1926
Missed out on promotion the following season by 0.004 goals on goal average - the narrowest in history

I'm sure there'll be some I've missed so feel free to add any I've not come across.

Here's a stat:

REIGNING PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS
And I'm not being arrogant, but history is just that. Its the current and the future that matter. I've watched us through thin and I'm now going to enjoy it!!!

'Typical City' is dead. Finished. Gone.
'Typical City' now means we fight to the end. We win games and league titles in the last minutes and dying seconds of games.
The club and the team have finally ditched the 'Typical City' tag and about time us supporters did too.

Surely "typical City" is very much alive? Hence how we left it soooooo late to beat QPR having taken the lead and 'typically' seemingly making it very hard work!

Hopefully we can shed that tag for good next season by very untypically winning the league by the end of April!

Winning games in the last minute has to be a sign that our lads have superb fitness and fight.
This has to be down to Mancini. Credit where it's due.
