Top banter! Not sure if they would have been bantering like this without Vin's rocket, though…

Oh, they definitely wouldn’t have been, but that is generally the case with any loss — there’s usually a banter moratorium until the next victory.

Someone posted a link to the Football is Fixed website yesterday, and I spent a few minutes looking at it. There were strong implications that Leicester were to be heavily favoured in this game, with a friendly referee (who officiated in a Leicester win in the reverse fixture) as well as allusions to Leicester’s enhanced energy levels in their title winning year, betting patterns for the game, and the desire for Liverpool to break their Premier League duck. One thing that caught my eye while I was browsing the site was a reference to “City’s resilience to overcome external factors”.

As expected, we got nothing from the officials in the game, but Vinnie’s brilliant goal epitomised our ability to overcome external influences. There was absolutely nothing they could do to overturn that goal.

I’m sure the site has taken that down now. The same as when they deleted a tweet from earlier in the season where they stated “united have been awarded the FA Cup and Liverpool the league” obviously the tweet was deleted within an hour of the rags getting knocked out of the cup.
Sorry for me it loses all credibility when it states something as gospel (because they’re in the know) but scuttles about frantically to delete tweets when they’ve clearly been telling porkies. It’s the classic a few truths mingled in with a load of bollocks a la David Icke.
 
I seem to have missed the Liverpool fans' planned reception for the City team coach yesterday after the clarion call on their forum. Perhaps someone who witnessed it can let me know how it went on....
 
Was as nervous as hell about the game. Anyone like me? Hardly slept a wink last night, just snoozed for a couple of hours, had a tension headache because of the match.
Spoke to a fellow blue this morning and agreed Leicester kept the ball well in their own half and relied on trying to catch us on the break.
Overall though, if it was earlier in the season and no nerves, we would have been more free flowing with our football.

They're still waiting outside the Albert pub, no one told them the route had been changed.
 
Great story on bbc news earlier.

A little boy called Rizky who is a big City fan was watching the highlights of a game in an internet cafe when the earthquake in Indonesia struck in September. He was pulled out from the rubble badly hurt. When his story was covered initially he said his favorite player was Mahrez. Mahrez recorded a video message wishing him all the best. You can imagine how a young fan spirits are lifted by that. The bbc reported it and then a follow up happened. Someone watching the story wanted to give the boy the chance to see City in person. He paid for the flight, and the club got involved inviting Rizky to not just watch in the stadium but be a mascot walking out with the players. And after the game Mahrez met him in person and gifted a signed ball from the team.

Shows the power of football transcends winning and losing a game.
