Where are we going to get them though?

We still have to play sides we have already beaten this season so it's going to be really tough of that i'm certain.

Me too. And Pep will be concentrating on champs league, take his eye off the real prize and we will lose the next 7. Will be exciting though
 
9 games left, if we win our next two the gap stays at 16 points at least regardless what either of them do. Beat rags will be 19 with 6 games left?

So 3 wins?

Might be wrong with all the fixture changes but don't Liverpool play three games whilst we play 2 so it might only stay at 16 points if Liverpool don't beat United.

Though as they will have played a game more that will still only mean we need 3 wins , if the third is United, as our goal difference is far superior to the others.

If we beat stoke, Everton and united then united can't catch us - but Liverpool may still be able to

on points maybe but they’d have to overhaul a GD superior by 28! Their max points is 87, 3 wins takes us to 87

They might not give us the trophy but win the next 3...

Ive come to the opinion that they're either trolls or morons.

I've even offered £10k bets to them that the league is won, oddly no takers even though they keep saying we could fuck up.

Crazy no one has taken you up when you are offering evens when someone could put 10k on the rags winning it and win 810k! How odd. As for the for the trolls or morons comment I think we all just want it done ASAP! And I would much rather we were cautious (perhaps in the extreme) than behave like the dippers.

One booky is suggesting there is a 1 percent chance of it happening. I would say that is about right. Most of us just want it against the rags.
 
If we are to win it definitely Vs the rags, it will be somewhat interesting to see how many of their supporters will attend on the day. If we have already won it by then I would guess their support would be even smaller. Either way they won't want to party.

I don't know if it's been said - thousands of threads and millions of posts on this forum - but I looked at some stats from the Premier League....

We are record holders for most consecutive wins (18, between 26 August 2017 and 27 December 2017).
We already hold the record for most consecutive home wins (20, between 5 March 2011 and 21 March 2012).
We also hold the joint record for most consecutive away wins (11, between 21 May 2017 and 27 December 2017).

We are also;
5 wins short of Chelsea's 'most wins in a season' (30 games out of 38) - we are currently 25 wins and have 9 games remaining.
4 Away wins short of 'most away wins in a season' (15 games out of 19) - we are currently 11 away wins and have 5 away games remaining.
20 goals short of Chelsea's 'most goals scored in a season' (103, 2009-2010) - we currently have 83 goals.
8 goals short of Chelsea's 'best goal difference in a season' (71, 2009-2010) - we currently have a goal difference of 63.
17 points short of Chelsea's 'most points in a season' (95 points, 2004-2005) - we are currently on 78 points.

IF we win all of our games, and United win all of theirs (other than the Derby);
We will have 105 points to their 86 points, making us the Biggest (19 points) and Smallest (0 points, 2011-2012 season) Title-winning margin holders of all time.

We could only be 1 win short of Chelsea, United & our own joint record of most home wins in a season (18) - as we currently have 14 home wins and we only have 4 home games left.

All of this - plus our own achievements at the club this season!

I, for one, am as happy as Larry - I've followed City since the 90's and I never EVER thought we'd be in the History books like that.

Regardless of this season's outcome - which, I must say, I am very confident about, we have come a long, long way.

Can we all just take a moment to reflect on that?

Just shows how good that Chelsea team was. If City break all their records then we will have totally rewritten Premier League history. Would love to know how we compare with the great teams of the pre-Premier League history.

If my Grandad was still alive, I reckon he'd think I was pulling his leg if I told him how well we're doing.
 
Win the next three and we can't be caught. Liverpool could at best be 18 off us with only five games to go, united 19 with six to go. Three wins and the league is ours.
 
Think if we get a good win tomorrow we will win it against the rags. The players will be well rested for the Everton game and know that a win will give us the chance to win it against the rags. A huge incentive. However a lot will depend on the champions league draw.
 
Win the next three games (which includes the scum) and that's it, the league is won!

It will be especially enjoyable beating the scum and them knowing with absolute certainty they can't catch us and have to face seeing us pick up the PL trophy in front of them. Their scummy fans will do the fastest ever emergency exit on record.

The bookies are offering 800/1 on the rags?
Tell you what, if anyone has 10k they're happy to give away wager on the rags, I'll give them 2,000/1.
 
Lad I go to the games with got 9/4 for us to win it v the rags, probably abt the right odds looking at the three games we need to win.
 
If we beat Stoke, reigning champions Chelsea mathematically won't be able to catch us with eight games still to play.

It has just occurred to me that a win against the rags will not only win us the league but could give 2nd place to the red dippers. Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
