City beat Fluminense and are crowned World Club Champions

Two years ago virtually to the day, I rang the bell ending my radiotherapy.
One year ago, I was in hospital over xmas and new year having the stuff removed that the radiotherapy couldn't kill.
Tonight having been at the Etihad, Wembley, Istanbul and Athens, I'm in dreamland realising just how lucky I am to support the best team in the land and all the world.

Enjoy it blues its our time, we've earned it.

Amazing, good for you and stay well Blue.

Whoops I’ve had it now. Maybe I’ll not have one on Christmas Day then. :-)

Just thinking of your health and well-being EB.We all know that if you have one tonight,that bottle will be empty by morning and you will be reported rolling round Eccles abusing passers-by and end up in the drunk tank for Christmas Day.For goodness sake,don't do it.

I'm not impressed by the level of football from South America. This is supposed to be their best club and the club winner from the second most important continental championship. I think some European minnows make better opponents.

Nah, they’re not really. This season they finished 7th. Last season finished 3rd, so scraped into the libertadores.

Just laughing at the fact Kaka handed us the trophy. I've only just clicked!

 

[SamTheGuru]

I think I learnt something this evening. Watched the final thinking that it doesn't matter what the result is, it is a bit of a nothing. I am now thinking, that there is no way on earth we could have afforded to lose that game. I didn't realise how important that game was to South America.

Well done City !

Unrivalled achievement…..5 trophies in a calendar year !!

Now let’s go on a PL winning streak…16 games on the bounce should do it !!

I still remember that press release. Kaka at his balcony window. I do think in retrospect, that was a bullet dodged. He didn't do much after that point did he?

 

[Barcon]

Not sure if we are at cross wires here and confused, there was an entire 10 minute segment where all he was talking about was Pep.

Agreed mate. I think we have a different idea of what subdued means.

It makes brilliant symmetry to me.

We were laughed at for that and look where we are now.

56 years ago, my Margaret and I were married on Saturday afternoon meaning we missed City's game against Stoke. My dad had a portable radio keeping us updated on the match which we won 4-2.
Tonight, the bubbly with our anniversary dinner will also toast yet another trophy by this incredible team.

Amazing !!! Enjoy mate

The MEN has John Stones (& Phil Foden) as ‘excellent’ and John Stones’ ‘passing and presence allowed them to build a rhythm’.
I knew my coin was giving me the right answer. ;-)

South American and Asian shirt sales will boom and sponsors will now be drooling at the thought of being linked to the club also if Pep could call in at the office before he departs back to the UK as there is a nice little cheque to collect to the tune of 9 million in prize money,,, little comp my arse

Well played tonight lads we are the best team in the land and all the world. Never thought I’d see it in my life time. I’m celebrating with a Cuban rum tonight merry Xmas everyone.

 

[HarrytheBlue]

I thought that Savage was OK but the other guy was a Twat

Agree - Savage was suitably complimentary about us. As for the main commentator - was it Jon Champion? - pretty spiteful.

They're taking it well at the caf....

You can't judge the philosophy of Fluminese from one game against a team of the biggest cheating regime in football managed by a serial cheat of a manager. Ridiculous final which will inevitably be stripped from City after the corruption and money laundering charges are proven.

Hmm ironic its's called the Caf when they got 1 star for their food... ;)

For the first time in literally years went to to look at RAWK, oh my, the delusional shite that's been posted on there had me laughing.

Long may it continue.

OK now off for a shower as I feel like I've been dumpster diving.

Money laundering? They really are as mad as a box of frogs these fucking idiots.

 

[Totnes Blue]

Amazing, good for you and stay well Blue.

Glad you’re having a ball!

they need to clutch onto something,let them be

After a picture of me on the terrace at York in the MEN i showed to Mrs K this week to this WOW.
I'm so glad i am going to die a blue who went through the fuckin lot

It really is a story isn’t it. I went to Fulham that season when we got dicked 3-0 after winning the first game 3-0 against Blackpool. Then the drama of Gillingham, Blackburn, relegation again. Keegan. Crazy times. It’s been such a journey. This year has been incredible. I know right at this very moment we aren’t at our best in the Prem but we beat United in the FA cup final and then won the CL the week after. That week was without doubt the greatest week in my life.

are people sure there is no alien life out there, this cant be the pinnacle,there must be some team somewhere that could give us a game
