Having read through some of the RAWK thread, it is quite funny watching the screeching u-turns of some of the posters as the realisation dawns on them that the title will likely have City ribbons on it instead of their red ones at the end of the season.
"I'm not arsed" - seems to be the theme. It's like that geezer in the pub who brags about the worldie he's been seeing but she's fobbed him off so he claims he wasn't bothered anyway, whilst crying into his pint of bitter. The idiot had the honeymoon planned and all sorts.
One thing that strikes me though is that there are constant jibes about "glory hunting city fans" but at the same time, City cannot fill the "Emptyhad" - which one is it then, as it can't be both?
Is the concept of hypocrisy lost on both Liverpool AND United? Those clubs have huge global followings that pump money into their coffers from folk that genuinely would struggle to point out Manchester and Liverpool on a map of the UK.
The issue here is that City burst through the door and took a seat at their table alongside other clubs with "istry", in 2008, instead of settling for scraps. They still aren't over this it seems.
2012 was the most dramatic and crazy moment of any title race as Sergio took that shirt off and swung it round his head. Compare that with the presentation at Anfield last season...
