As my Dad used to say to me when we played pool and I’d be on the black; “no pressure!”

very appropriate simile

To be fair I have read this somewhere before (can't remember where)?

Rag cafe?

I’d like them to go unbeaten but us win the league with more wins and points hahaha

That would be epic. They’d claim a moral victory, of course.

Early yesterday morning I got a text from a spurs fan saying I’m surrounded by scousers who think they’ve won the league.

Chelsea were excellent yday but if they were Scousers they would highlight that victory as why they are greatest team in the world.

No one quite like them.

 

[Oh YeahOh Yeah]

You've got to doff your cap to the dippers on their achievement. To win their first PL in December with 22 games left is astonishing. Still,I don't think the drama of 2012 with our first PL win with almost the last kick of the season can be beaten. But well done to them. ;-)

Unfortunately not as it would have been taken with a larger than usual sack of rock salt..........

 

[Rochdale Blue]

Are we still leading the table with Liverpool or have the media relegated us to second place?

Better yet, the same scenario, but they lose their last game of the season, preferably at Klanfield

You are so right. I work with a Liverpool fan and he bangs on about how they beat us three times last season and got to the CL final. So I said, but we won the league and league cup and you finished 4th and lost the final. But he said being in the CL final makes you a better team than winning the domestic league...hmmm.

Taking that further, I have a friend from Barcelona and the general feeling in Spain is that CL success does trump domestic success so whilst a league and CL double is of course the dream, he would prefer to give back the league titles in exchange for Real's CL dominance over the past few years.

I think City feel differently. I certainly would only really want CL success if he won the league too. But when you look back, whilst Chelsea and Liverpool both won it without a domestic title it is still a huge success so should I be bothered? Perhaps it is because the rags have managed to do both...
