I don't understand why everyone is so ecstatic about the result of this match.
After all, we've not played a top four side yet.

But the build up to the game was such that they were a Top 2 side. We didn't know they were hyping so much about a fancy Stoke side. It's quite funny looking back at all the quotes before the match.

I love the smell of victory on a Monday morning.

Catching up on all the press and this one stood out for me... Not only did we well and truely mop the floor with them but that was their lowest home possession share since 03/04 - 39%, wow.

At last we are getting the recognition we deserve. MOTD was a pleasure to watch for once, Shearer wasnt a gobshite, and even the papers have been a joy to read.

Happy Mondays :)

Best thing for me is that people are saying they played well second half. If that's them 'playing well' then happy days. I was less worried in that last 30 minutes than I was when Fletcher scored to make it 1-3! As for them being unlucky with the 'penalty', I'd have more truck with that if they'd been battering us for half an hour and it was yet another last ditch challenge. They hadn't and it wasn't!
As it was, they created nothing and the non-penalty only came about thanks to a heavy touch by Bravo, NOT due to any attacking prowess from them. As I said, if that's them playing well.......

I thought so at first, but to be fair it would be difficult to convey our first half performance through highlights. There weren't that many chances or incidents in the half - just us making them chase shadows for 40 minutes, passing it around for fun. As beautiful as it was to watch live, it's not really something you can turn into a highlights reel.

I think someone must've died at work. :/

Amazing first 40 minutes by The Old Sky Blues, we gifted them a goal and just didn't put the match to bed! My 15th visit to that shithole, and the first time I've seen us win there....Spanish Dave and KDB were simply unplayable.

Thought watch the first half on scum.tv to listen to paddy squirming in fact it was less bias than sky paddy even said city have been Magnificent was hoping for them to moaning crying.
