Am I missing something here? Our first League win at WHL in 20 years, apparently. Obviously, that 2-0 win on Good Friday eight years ago, didn't count then?

"A first league victory in this corner of north London for 20 years returned City to the top of the formative Premier League table, albeit briefly, but it was the manner of the success that will reverberate through the division. The visitors were irrepressible, sparring through the opening half-hour before ripping Tottenham to shreds. City were supposed to be a team restricted by an overly cautious approach though, in tearing into Spurs, they did not so much release the handbrake as rip it out and fling it from the vehicle altogether."
 
General lack of attention to detail. Last week, they had Milner scoring, instead of Barry. Still, I'm apt to forgive them when they write things like this:
GOAL! Tottenham 0-4 Manchester City (Aguero, 60 min): Sheer class. This lot could win the Champions League, you know, never mind the league. What a statement of intent this is and what a fine goal. Another fine goal. All four have been of the highest quality.
