How many points will be needed to win the league? (74 GD)

[paulchapo]

I think of it like a flight we are both on.

You’re afraid of flying and I’m sat next to you drinking a cocktail and binge watching a great series. We will both get to the same destination, it’s just I’m going to enjoy the ride a bit more than you.

Ha ha that's actually a great analogy. I'd reached a stage when I was watching us when we were poor that I was totally relaxed as I expected nothing other than a loss or a draw. I had long realised we were never going to win a trophy so unless we were fighting relegation or going for promotion I felt no pressure whatsoever. It's a pleasure watching us these days but the old demons still lurk.

We need 11 points to win the league
There's 21 points to play for.
I can't see us losing 10 points out of the 7 remaining games

If even you’re predicting victory then it’s done! :)

I am lucky having seen the City era with Bell, Lee and Summerbee and now the wonderful times again .

But, I never assume anything despite what logic suggests .

Modest and brilliant at maths. Chapeau.

Jog on and handwring about our obviously precarious lead.

It's those 40 years in the interim that stuck in the throat somewhat!

That's when I started going.

I have a selective memory - what's left of it !!

We are enjoying it, but Cityitis is part of our dna as fans

It is indeed Foggy.

It's what keeps us grounded and humble.

Could you imagine the crass behaviour coming from the rag and dipper fans if their respective teams were performing as well as Manchester City?

I too, was always relaxed back in the day, when even a draw was a good result. But since the takeover my health as took a complete nosedive. I am permanently at Salford Royal. Psoriasis flare ups, Heart attack and even though I have suffered anxiety problems and a tremor, the shakes have got so bad that the doctors want to put two wires in my head attached to a battery pack and my thalamus. I cant even drink a fuckin brew when the games on anymore. Please god let us win the quadruple before out else happens.

Totally agree. We are a unique breed no doubt. I normally can’t celebrate a win until the 90 min is up. Iv tried to reason with myself on more than 1 occasion to wise up but the history of the club has left character scars.

No matter how many trophies we win those scars/feelings will always be present.

Completely Mental :)
