13.5.12. 93:20

Can anyone say what time it was when 93:20 came and Sergio scored? Can't remember exactly when the second half started (with a 4 o'clock kick off it would have been just after 5 p.m.?) so the nearest I can make it is 5:49 p.m & twenty seconds. But I'd like to have it exact as the anniversary moment approaches. Thanks.

An amazing and wonderful moment, shared at the Etihad with loving family some of whom have since left too young and who I'll be thinking of this afternoon.

It was a 3pm kick off. Everyone always assumes it was 4pm….it’s the 93:20 everyone remembers though!
 
So the Scouse Granny Shagger has kept this conspiracy theory to himself for 10 years, and only now can he bring himself to tell the world about it.

Rooney, 37, reflected on Kenny's goalkeeping during Man City's emphatic 3-2 victory at the Etihad Stadium which saw them win the Premier League title.

The Derby County boss found it 'strange' that QPR kicked the ball straight back to the City players following their equaliser, as they were trying to secure their Premier League status.


Rooney also highlighted Djibril Cisse celebrating with the Man City after the game despite being on the losing side with QPR.

“On reflection, Paddy Kenny should have done better for a couple of the goals. City get the second goal, and QPR kick it straight back to them. That’s never been questioned, which I find strange," Rooney said at the Premier League Hall of Fame ceremony.

“Djibril Cisse celebrating with the City players after the game. Listen, it’s a historic moment in the Premier League, and I’m sure if you’re not a Manchester United player it’s probably the greatest moment in the league.”
 
Swinging through the emotions today, still in work and I guess I will let it all out later tonight with a few scoops down me the one thing about today though that i have just been thinking about is the QPR & Sunderland supporters who lets face it have always been an integral part of the day, so it's sad that they've ended up where they have.
They were proper football supporters that day for me - Sunderland were already well liked by us Blues so their reaction was brilliant to see and always make me smile when I see them taking the piss out of the scum.


QPR supporters? Staying behind for the Trophy Lift and actually cheering THAT goal - bravo.

Bobby Manc calling them Kwee Pee Arr made me piss myself too.


Meeting their fans on holidays since has always been a pleasure as they were genuinely pleased that we had won it. They took the piss in a pre season game against the rags last year after they'd beaten them - Ole's at the wheel IIRC.

Good luck to the pair of them - will be cheering The Mackems on in the play offs and who knows next season for QPR.
Completely agree, the Hoops fans after the game were made up for us. Yes, they avoided relegation but I think it was 100% genuine from them and the Mackems were great up there too. Hope we see them both back in the Prem soon
 
I was watching on my own in our old flat in St Petersburg. My wife is in retail and was at work, which was probably for the best. I had Tyler's commentary so must have found some dodgy stream of the Sky feed on my PC, which seemed easier to do then. I settled down with a few beers and plenty of confidence.

I remember when in the period after QPR went ahead wandering round the flat, kind of dazed. Just couldn't process us not winning. Kept telling myself to remember the Gillingham game and that if we could get an equaliser, we'd go on and win it. I remember the chance that Balo had on almost exactly 90 minutes when it rebounded off him after Paddy Kenny parried a David Silva corner, and it went wide. I seriously wondered whether that was it, our chance had come and gone.

Then we got another corner, also down our attacking right hand side and again taken by Silva. This one has to go in, I thought to myself, only for him to put it straight into Kenny's hands. I gave up mat this point, and may not have been all that charitable to Silva: I couldn't fathom how such a great player managed such a poor delivery when the opposite was needed.

Of course, we got yet another corner almost immediately afterwards and Silva put in a great delivery this time, while Edin did the rest. Everyone knows what happened after that. I didn't go mad, just collapsed on the sofa with my overriding emotion being relief. That's maybe because I wasn't with anyone else.

I rang home soon after to share the moment with my dad. I'm glad we had that and other subsequent successes, because if there's anything worth sharing in the coming 9 days or so, he's no longer there to enjoy it with. Hope we don't cut it so fine, though, as I'm a decade older now and not sure my blood pressure would stand another finish like that.
 
Just watching the last race at York then going to pour a nice long vodka and watch the second half from the archive of my IPTV provider.
 
Unforgettable day. Uncle came with his family to my home to watch this game. Aunt who had no interest in the game chose to wind us up seeing our dejected faces. Around 80th minute, uncle left (was getting bed-time) saying in case City win, give him a call.

And then, the Aguero moment happened which had me screaming and jumping around. Picked up the phone and called uncle to convey one of the greatest surprises ever.
