Douglas MacArthur was a Human that lived in Manchester in 2023. He was known for speaking the following words at the conclusion of the treble war. Today the guns are silent. A great tragedy of United being the only club to win the treble has ended.

Oh and oh again, that turn and run on goal was a thing of sublime beauty, leaving 4 in his wake, it is a criminal shame he couldn't quite lift it top right, Rodri's strike was superb but would have had to take 2nd place if that had happened for Phil.

I'm gutted he couldn't find the Finish that he's more than capable of in that situation. His name was in neon lights forever had he have put that away.

I'm confident he'll get another few opportunities to get that goal that'll be as iconic as the ones from Vinny, Yaya, Sergio, Gundogan and now Rodri.

Nick Harris blocked my mate on Twitter the other day when he asked him “Is it true the only reason City won’t sue you is because they think you are genuinely unwell in the head and don’t want to add to your misery? And how would you describe your current state of mind?”

He's the weirdest creature I think I've ever seen. An absolute embarrassment to journalism. But by far the funniest thing on Twitter. I hope the scouse lap-dog continues to suck the devil's cock and make an utter prick of himself.

I’m shocked at the little coverage our parade has had.

Only place was talksport YouTube which is bizarre. City socials, YouTube nothing, ITV nothing, BBC nothing & Sky nothing

Beginning to think HAARP was responsible for weather too! Lol Google it that rain followed the city coach :-)

Fook em all we are City & the piss is boiling

Exactly.

I can't help but laugh at all the sad little idiots in the media and elsewhere comparing the crowd sizes. They all just end up sounding like Donald Trump's press secretary falsely claiming that the 2016 inauguration audience was the biggest ever. Who cares? It just shows how small these people are. It's pathetic, really.
 
This post is just a little aside as much as anything else but just about noteworthy all the same.

Denis Irwin was interviewed on RTE 6 o Clock News this evening. Man Utd are playing a friendly in Dublin and he was wheeled out for some promo pics etc. (the United shirt he wore had no main sponsor on it by the way).

The entire piece - a story about Manchester United coming to Dublin to play some other crowd, remember - was announced as "Coming up after the break Denis Irwin gives his verdict on Manchester City winning the treble".

To be fair to Irwin, he was respectful, if maybe a bit resigned about City ("they're up there now for the rest to aim at and take them down").

Now, I remember in 2012, City in the Community brought the FA Cup over to Ireland and all the media wanted to talk to Patrick Vieira about was Roy Keane this and Man Utd that...

Now, it's gone full circle. United were trying to promote themselves but being cornered into answering questions about Manchester City. City's was the name being used for audience retention o that evening's news

As I say, just a passing observation on my part - and only a small moment in the grand scheme of things but I thought it was worth sharing.

Is he the one who forecast N’golo Kante to come back to City.
Or that Isco (let’s all have a disco) was coming in 2023, then 2014, 2015, 2016?

ITK’s often have been told something in good faith. Players change their mind. I was told by someone very prominent in the game that Hazard was a done deal. Everything agreed till he and Mancini butter heads over the position he would be played.

I think us crushing Madrid lead them to act in desperation, they may well have blown our deal out of the water. Make no mistakes about it, that 4-0 crushing changed the landscape of European football.

Trump is a massive City fan did you know?
