93.20 Documentary

When Zabba scored I thought "Unbelievable - City are actually going to do it the easy way!" I was cursing that thought till 93:20 had elapsed...
 
In typical City fashion we beat the same team 6-0 at the end of the next season lol!
 
I had this really calm feeling with 5 minutes to go, kind of weird. Our kid was fucking furious and was on the verge of leaving, I just somehow knew it would be ok.

Abiding memory was walking back to the pub to see my Dad and nearly welling up as came out with a stupid grin on his face... think he been back on the weed, no mean feat at 62.

A few weeks before when we had lost to Arsenal and I was depressed an image flashed into my head of Kompany lifting the premier league trophy, it was as clear as day. Of course I thought it was mad but as we went on our winning run and the rags imploded I started to believe and was incredibly calm. All that went out of the window as we stuttered against QPR. I actually couldn't believe my premonition had been wrong, so clear it had been and right up to that point. The rest is of course history.

As for your dad's stupid grin mine lasted all summer lol!
 
At the very very end of the sky coverage they played Sergio waving his shirt about in slow motion and Louis Armstrong singing what a wonderful world as it was number one in 1968 when we last won it
Anyone remember it? It brought a fucking tear to the eye...

mine lasted all of a couple of weeks till we signed Rodwell/Sinclair/Maicon/Javi Garcia, then I knew it was doomed.

We certainly missed a huge chance to dominate for years.

I disagree.
I don't think the way football currently is, that one singular team will dominate the English top flight like we've seen previously.
The dominance was achieved primarily by weakening other teams in the league.
Example... Leeds were seen as a threat so Rags bought Cantona.
Forest? Keane.
Rio, Berbatov, "Andrew" Cole, the list goes on.

Now the likes of Spurs, if they had a Berbatov could stick two fingers up to the likes of the Rags knowing they gain xxx amount of revenue and can thus compete.

Not as many selling clubs.
Yes players are still sold such as Sterling and Stones to and from league rivals but the clubs have a higher level of pull with their management and can attract just as good if not better replacements... And have spare change.

If or when the game financially collapses we may then see a return to one team dominance.
