I've just heard someone on the radio say yesterday was the worst day of his life.
We are overreacting MASSIVELY to being beaten by the rags.
Ignore the shit from your rag mates. Ignore the gloating media. Ignore Ferguson's lies. Ignore the hurt.
We lost a point yesterday in the last minute of time added on. That didn't particularly damage us, to be honest. What has hurt us is Tottenham taking 6 points from two games where if they had been turned over we would still be sitting pretty.
Of course there is a connection - Spurs will have been boosted by City being pegged back a point, but did City taking no points from the game rather than one point really make that much of a difference? Fair play to Spurs because they have taken maximum points out of two of the hardest home games they will play. But that is what has hurt us where it really matters - in the league table.
We are now two points behind Spurs and are just behind them on goal difference. Now the rags are back in with a shout at the league I can't see Spurs getting anything at the swamp next week. If we are capable of beating Chelsea at their place we are capable of beating Arsenal at theirs. Even if we get beaten by Arsenal we will probably not be any worse off than we are now. Provided we beat Villa, it will stay in our hands to finish 4th by beating Spurs on our own patch - and we have won every really big evening kick off we have played at home this season.
Keep it real, keep the faith. We can still do it.
