Have we ever retained a trophy?

Need to be quicker off the mark, mate.
BTW I like your use of the word "Bizz". It should make a comeback.
Usage of the word bizz is one of the undoubted benefits of a 1970s Cheadle Hulme grammar school education

Yep, nailed on to win the “losing against Wigan” cup. Which brings me to a question: their ex-chairman, Dave Whelan I think his name is - heard he broke his leg in a cup final. Can anyone confirm as can’t find anything on internet and never seen him mention it. Ta
Yeah, it was in the 1960 final when he was playing for Blackburn. They bamfed on and on about it in the run up to the 2013 final. Can't for the life of me remember that game though...

Bastard GDM, you beat me to it! ; )We retained the Cup for Cock-Ups for a couple of decades.

This is the main target this season. No team has retained the title since 2009. It's been a decade. If City want to punctuate their dominance, this is it. Going back to back puts you on a perch as the dominant force in a league. I think Guardiola knows that and will go all-out to get this one.

Yes pal, Pep knows the dance. He'll want to dominate that league for his remaiming time, and in doing so, making us the dominant force of the last 10-15 yearsThis is the main target this season.
