Aston Villa (H) Post Match Thread



The GOAT commentator Peter Drury

Wow - heart-warming to hear a commentator really enjoying the drama of a City winner.

Compare & contrast with Tyler's low-key 'celebration' of City goals, which is often just him saying matter-of-factly:
"And City have scored ..."
Or: " And there's another one, Gary".

Never mind his constant harping back to "But it could have been so different if the opposition had taken that earlier chance they had" ... totally ignoring the 15 chances we've missed.

he is the best ! lucky to have him on the International broadcast
 
The similarity in uncanny. When I'm telling younger guys about Colin, the thing that raises an eyebrow is when I tell them he had Kyle's pace, ultra dominant in the air and brilliant in the tackle. Unbelievable player. Would be the world's most valuable player today.
He would, without a doubt. I am so honoured that I was able to see him play so many times.
 
I had to marvel at KDBs ability to seemingly drag the ball from an impossible position to strike the cross pass on a sixpence for Gundogan,he did the same movement for his goal at home v Chelsea,the defenders don’t see a pass/shot being on and he has a knack of whacking it perfectly to where he wants the ball to go,an amazing skill.
 
I have watched those 5 minutes of goals a few times now I still cant remember what I did. Can remember hugging everyone around me but it's a blur !
I will tell you what you did. You knocked my daughter up and now’s she is pregnant. I am on my round to yours now for a chat.
 
One of the lads at work asked me if I’d swap the title this season for the Champions League, as we’d won it so often now.

I told him no, as the League is a testament to consistency over nine months. I also pointed out that the last time Littlewoods won it, they lost four times in that season’s competition, and I cited Brian Clough, who said he’d rather win the title than the European Cup for the same reason.
 
Oh well just been sacked from work as one of my managers ( BIN DIPPER ) thought it was in appropriate me to wear my Manchester City Shirt as it might be deemed as offensive tell you what is more offensive see you in court M******F****** for unfair dismissal........ Oh and ended with you Fat C*** maybe that was the icing on the cake Oh well onwards and upwards

Said this before, he can pass, shoot when the ball is behind him!

The Rags the Dippers aren't used to being second. Now they're just bad loosers.
 
Btw, forgot to mention this. Loved Arlo White's commentary on NBC - for the first goal ... "Sterling ... back post ... 2-1!" Reminded me of old Clive Tyldesley for Hinchcliffe's goal all those years ago
 
Gundogan is being given plaudits for the goal, and rightly so, but in my opinion, the real hero of that goal was Kev.
Of course Kev deserves plaudits..... but if Gundogan wasn't on the pitch, no one else would have been in that position. Well done both.
 
Just about coming down from the ecstasy of it all, im a 38 year old 'tough' man but fuck me I nearly went at the end of the game, to be there with my dad and 17 year old lad and experience it together was almost too much. I keep watching different videos from the day and seeing things I missed previously, what a daft football club we all love.

My old fella is 64 now and 2 of my closest City going mates around my age have lost their dads over the last couple of years so im one of the lucky ones that can still be there with him.

Having said that any more of them final day experiences them daft blue bastards put us through could finish me off!
That's what it's all about, cherish those beautiful moments blue. My dad was also 64 when I suddenly lost him a few months ago, he would say how he couldn't wait until my little boy was old enough to go to matches so we could all go together.

I'm grateful for all the memories I got with him, I was at the Etihad with him to see us lift the trophy in 2014 and 2018 and those moments will stay with me forever.

Anyway, enjoy the break for a couple of months before we get back on the emotional rollercoaster that is Manchester City for another season! CTID

Did this actually happen? I’d go to the media with that except they would almost certainly side with the dipper
