maybe i'm drunk or to excited about the result tonight BUT i really feel we can make it again....our toughest game from mow on are spurs and swansea away while the bastards have wba stoke arsenal away and chelsea at home...stoke is fighting to stay up and arsenal and chelsea fight for CL spot....i believe in the guys they can make it again...what you fellas think????
Until it's over I will believe we can do it.
 
I prefer to believe it's dead and buried, then I can just enjoy the remaining games without worrying. Anything else is a bonus. It's a big big big stretch to say we can still win the league. There are bottle jobs but this would be beyond a bottle job.
 
I must admit ive got a feeling its going to be alot closer than people think..I put £20 on last week @ 88-1. Chances are its not going to happen but if the reds drop some points in the next couple of games..i may start getting excited!!!

I hope we will see some scintillating football in the last 7 games. The team palying without fear and the individual players really showing us what they can do. For me, 7 more great performances in the league will be enough to make the season feel like a success.

Of course, I hope we win the FA cup too.
 
I just hope we can end the season with some really effective results. If we can win the rest of our matches I shall be very happy, even if the reds don't slip up. We just have to be in a position to capitalise in the very unlikely event of their losing the plot.

For me, the title has gone. If we could end up closing that gap to something a bit less ''piss taking'', I'd be happy. 6 points?

It'll have to be the most almighty of fuckups by them lot. I'm not saying it's impossible to win it...............let's see what happens when Utd play Stoke at the weekend. In all honesty though we've ballsed it up and let Utd run away with it, somehow.

As I always have though, I will hope and pray that we can do it.

Monday's result proved what we're capable of and I hope the players use that as motivation for the rest of the season and win us the FA Cup.

After reading the article in the Sun yesterday , on how City can still win the title , I got all giddy and backed us . Luckily my mate who has just opened his own bookies( and a red c&2T) gave us 600-1
C'mon Stoke
C'mon City
We'll fight to the end

Stick £100 for me at that price...please

Haa haa , He's got an interview with some betting magazine in the next week or so , he reckons he's going to give us a mention about the superb price he gave us , disallusioned (where's spell checker) tw@ts , He also called us :~)
I'll take a tenner at 600-1, shit I'd take a tenner at 60-1 but if your mate gave me those odds he'd be a shithouse! ;)

As for the past 10 pages or so, of course it is possible. Unfortunately we are banking on them to fuck up, and as we all know, the mighty scum are stronger towards the end of the season, they don't fuck it up and would never bottle the largest lead with the fewest games to go in Premiership history ..... .... ... .. . COME ON YOU BLUES Put the pressure on lads
 
Just to say, if they were to lose at Stoke (something that I doubt), then we won our game in hand, they would be 9 pts ahead with 6 games to go.

Last season they were 8 pts ahead with 6 games to go. So in terms of their form, they'd only have to do ever so slightly worse, and they have tougher games.
 
It is was something like 9 points, I would say yes. But the gap is too huge, and the Rags will have to lose alot of games to slip up this badly.

With that said though, if it wasn't 38 games but something like 45, I'm pretty confident we'll catch up.

I don't recognise the game from this account though!

We had 15 shots on goal to their 10. 10 shots from inside the box compared to 6 by City players. United had 55% of the possession. passed the ball more accurately (82% vs 76%) and made more passes in total (443 vs 353) We made more tackles and won a higher % of tackles attempted. Pretty much the only stat where City looked the better team was in goals scored, one of which should not have counted. Obviously, stats need to be interpreted in context and I don't think United dominated as much as you'd think from reading those statistics. I saw it as an even game, with both sides approaching the game with their usual, differing styles. We set up to soak up pressure and counter-attack (the way we fucking ALWAYS approach tough games like this, something that gets promptly forgotten by the hive mind on here this season the moment we fail to pick up all three points prompting hysterical outbursts about "cowardice" from the team/manager) and City tried to find space in the middle of the park for Silva and Toure to pass and probe with Tevez and later (spit) Aguero trying to pull our defenders out of place with clever movement. For most of the game the two teams cancelled each other out, with neither keeper making any kind of meaningful save until we gifted (oh Ryan) City their first (offside) goal, scored from a set-piece and eventually got undone by a moment of individual brilliance. What definitely did not happen, despite thousands of words posted on here to the contrary, was City comprehensively outplaying United or somehow dominating the game. That's just hysterical nonsense. Last season we got our arses handed to us by City, last night we most definitely did not.

I liked the part where he spat on Aguero, we could learn a lesson in class from that lot.
 
If stoke can do us a favour, the rags will shit bricks when we beat Wigan.. Its doable but sunday is our last chance, they have to lose or even a draw may do us as we will have a better GD by the end of the season
