What a cracking day, and my birthday too! One I'll never forget.
Citysmith said:My favourite derby ever!! From the shell shocked Gary Neville afterwards to the cocky Rags before hand. This truly was the day the tide turned. The rags had not been beaten on their own patch for over a year in the premier league, they were favourites I'm sure before the game and I know the lad I was sat with was confident of a United victory before hand.
The last 5 minutes esp were up there because it was a realise of the strangle hold they had over us as a team. I love the empty seats, I love the pictures of the scoreboard, I love the fact that Edin ran out of fingers to symbolise the score line, I love the close ups of the distraught rags at the end, I live the fact that Hart was so cool at the end despite death threats from individuals in the crowd, I love the fact that Silva made THAT pass, I live the fact that the huge victory gave us the goal difference to win the league, I love the fact that rags went into hiding at work, I love the fact that it hurt GPC so much, I love the sick swan jokes, I love the fact that I was privledged to do the Fanzone that day, I loved the fact that they scored to give the hope before we crushed it so emphatically . A perfect day where Manchester City made every fan stand up and take notice, still makes me smile
