[NptonBlue89!]

2 cups not a bad season, poor tonight and lacked a leader at times, might of been fatigue but we gave it a go when we shouldn’t of been anywhere near them 10 games back! Gutted about pep let’s see what the future holds! Least it’s only 20 days till the World Cup

 

[Kirkstall Blue]

I completely forgot the time but seems I didn’t miss much second spot and two trophies brilliant end to the season

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Micah laying into us. Nice club ambassador you got there City.

To be fair to the **** I don’t think he’s been on the payroll as a club ambassador for years

 

[Zenmanc]

Two cups
2nd in the PL
10pts clear of United
Haaland top scorer again

It's not been a bad season

Especially when you consider if Arsenal hadn't stumbled to the finish the last few months they should have been champions weeks ago.

 

[DMA's]

Cheers mate. Agree I feared the worst and I know we're a team only a mother could love but the heart wants what the heart wants.

But City in a transitional season getting a couple of cups is pretty fucking good!

Enjoy your night bud.

Great season , two trophies and just one result away from another title and Champions league qualification for about the 15th season on the trot , not negative at all about this season , we have shown progress and a decent box to box midfield signing in the summer and we will be there again next season.
Congratulations to the Goons , boring as f*ck but they crawled over the line in possibly the worst quality league season for years.
We camped in Bournemouths goal mouth in the 2nd half and several goal mouth scrambles didnt go our way , cant fault the effort after along 60 game season , Sunday will be a massive celebration , 2 cups , new stand opening and pay homage to the best manager that ever existed , so proud to have supported this club for over 60 years and cant wait for Sunday , CTID.

Bridge too far. Not going to comment on the game. But rather on our cup double. A great achievement in a year of transition. Before our year of managerial transition.

Pushed Arsenal very close. League was always a push after our poor first half of the season and their start. But let’s not let today’s disappointment sully a fine domestic cup double.

 

[WestGorton]

Well done City. Gave it all after 3 games in a week. Onwards.

 

[Blue Tooth]

Congrats to Arsenal. Just a game too far this one. Two cups, and a CL spot. Well played Bournemouth. Good side.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Big Blue Lee Dixon in tears of joy

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

A sponsor

I wonder who thought it was a good idea to leak the news about Pep leaving at this stage

 

[Norbiton]

Would have been quite astonishing for this team in transition to have done the domestic treble. To come so close is a fantastic achievement and a fitting farewell to Pep. Not losing that game might be meaningless in the league positions but it made me feel better whatever!

 

[Sky Blue]

Y

Ffs can you all stop congratulating VArsanal. They are the least deserving champions of the last decade.

Yep fuck that. Sickening reading it.

 

[bearcityblu]

Ran out of steam tonight. Bournemouth full of energy and young players who fought for their lives tonight. They deserve to be in Europe next year.
Not a bad year, 2 trophies, considering where we were last year.
Onwards and upwards we have a young squad and next year with more experience can get our title back.

 

[Jwoody19]

Poor from us tonight but there is no denying that 3 games in 9 days (one of which was a cup final) absolutely bollocksed us. We looked tired from the first whistle.

 

[kupest]

I'd buy Pep a Rolex if he stays.

 

[crossie]

22 seconds added onto that initial 6.

Bollocks to it

Fucking bent as isn’t it but no one will do anything about it. Ref will have been told in his ear told to stop the game so we don’t do another QPR type come back. Leave no final day risk to it, finish us off whilst the chance is there. Pathetic.

We’re basically watching WWE

 

[bridgeno1]

Enjoy your night bud.

Cheers mate!

 

[SuttonColdfieldBlue]

Prob wouldn’t have mattered but lack of added time very strange at the end

No goals 2nd half until actually in stoppage time, no injuries (?), just subs and general breaks in play. +6 seemed about right, the maximum I expected. We kicked off pretty quickly after our goal too… thought Taylor got it right really.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

That tonight was another in a long line of poor performances where we look void of genuine ideas of goal threat all while being wide open at the back.

This. 14 shots to 10 in our favour, but then when you look at those shots, the vast majority are low quality shots through a sea of players. There's none of that special interplay between players that opens up defences, that was our trademark during our dominant seasons. And it's so annoying, because that title was there for the taking this season. It's about to be won with 85 points. We used to do that in our sleep.
