Yes and no, as with the Spurs & Chelsea goals you'd still be bouncing around not thinking about VAR in the moment but the down from the 93:20 being chalked off could very well be a riot.

One thing is for sure, there'd be no watching the screen stuff us as we'd still be all limbs as they did us.

We've seen the last 2 greatest City moments in the game & the Leicester one, footie is dying.

When Dzeko made it 2-2, from the resulting kick off QPR just booted the ball straight to Hart. When Nasri let the ball run out thinking it was a City throw, but it went to QPR, they gave the ball to us straight from that throw, without bothering to waste time, or try and keep it. From that Aguero scored, and again from the kick off, they just booted the ball to Hart. There was still under a minute left, but they showed absolutely no intent on doing anything, and the referee just decided to blow up early. QPR only knew they were safe when we were on the attack that led to Aguero's winner, so it seems strange they didn't bother to waste time or keep the ball when they had that throw in Nasri gifted them that SWP won.

For me, that day will never be topped. I don't think I will ever feel as I did when Aguero got that goal. Things have changed too much, and we're now one of the top teams. Then we were still emerging. I love where the club is now, but I do miss being the underdog in a way.

They were giving the ball to us as they didn't want to lose their defensive shape while they had an active score. When we scored, they probably just didn't want to bother anymore.

other way around in our house, daughter and I were just sat glum faced and resigned to another typical city moment, wife, who "doesn't like football" until it's on and she's swearing at the telly, telling us we would win, still not believing when Dzeko scored, then a triple knee slide across the living room floor (that hurts later when you're late forties with knackered knees btw) when the ball went in for the third
 
sat round my dads house with my kid brother and my son, all I could hear was my son text message tone going after most of the second half as his scum mates kept texting him taking the piss. I had come to terms with having to walk around the town in my City shirt as the scum took the piss, I was ready to puff my chest out and say f**k off. Than Dzeko scored we celebrated abit and I noticed my sons text tone had stopped, than Aguerooooooooooo, I fell from my chair to the floor in floods of tears, my son was crying and laughing so was our kid and my dad sat there with a great big smile and he said that's for you Pam , his wife (of 52 years) our mum who passed away a few months earlier. I thing for about 30 minutes after the match I just sat in silence I couldn't take in what had just happen , I wanted to jump around like a numpty but I was empty I had nothing left I was so knacked emotionally I couldnt move, I was in a daze.

we parked our car in the normal place and my lad and I walked towards our house in our City shirts etc than at the traffic lights pulled up a car full of City fans with flags and scarfs hanging out the car , very rare to see City fans in Margate !. So with the people in the car and us we sang champions champions champions even after the lights went green in the car didn't move as we all sang and danced in the street. Not one car pipped at us which was odd.

than at about 8pm there was a knock on the door its was big Rob and I mean big muscles on muscles from Salford a big utd fan from round the corner. My lad said you aren't going to answer the door are you dad ? I did and big Rob put his hand out we shock hands and he said ' you deserved that ' and of he went.
 
My mate, who's a West Ham fan, turned round to me after Dzeko scored and said "I'm surprised you've scored again, what with all those near misses". Utd fans in the corner still gloating, me shaking like a shitting dog. After I'd picked myself off the floor 4mins later, my mate had lined up blue and white shots along the edge of the bar. God knows what they were but a very kind gesture and they were sunk in seconds! I hope one day I can repay him with some claret & blue shots.
 
I put a lucky charm on the match ball when I threw it to Zabaleta leading to the corner that led to Dzekos goal,that makes me the last City fan to
touch the ball before the Aguerooooo moment,priceless,what a day and emotional rollercoaster that was...

Re: QPR fans

I'd like to think that any fan of a club which has spent the majority of its time outside the top 6 are proper football fans and will naturally respect what we went through yesterday.

But the time when neutrals had a soft-spot for City are coming to an end

Spot on with the last paragraph, but doubt any of us thought the media driven hatred and jealousy would have been this bad.
 
Just a very long shot. Not having a ticket, I watched the game in The Green on Ducie Street that day. Many of you will know it. If anyone has any photos of everyone doing their nut in the moments after 93:20 — utter madness — and in particular a bloke wearing glasses and a 1970s City top, stood under one of the screens and facing outwards towards the pandemonium, raising his arms like an ayatollah on speed, egging it on, could you pm me with photos attached? I would be much obliged. I have nothing from that day, except the memories… which are priceless.
 
Saw some tv, today MOTDX or something when I was helping out Mrs Moons sister who is very poorly (not CV) and to my surprise out of 8 events over the decade..Leicester winning the league, Rooney shinning it in, why always me, Gerrards slip, baconface retiring amongst them.....The Agueroooooooo moment was the winner.

Small things etc but cheered me up no end.

Blue-tinted specs off – really – only justice, @blue b4 the moon. The only thing that could justifiably compete with it would be Leicester winning the league, but there is no ‘moment’ for that. Unless perhaps, the blind Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli singing at the King Power on the final day. That was a fine thing.
 
I have some photos and videos of that day while in the Blue Anchor in Holborn. Obviously it was bedlam but great memories. Bar staff spraying us all with champagne whilst Queens "We are the champions" blasted over the stereo. It still gives me goosebumps watching the goal go in. The videos are a bit short as my phone was set to 5 second maximum video or something. Anyhow im sure City fans celebrating in London makes any blues smile.
