"One banana, two banana, three banana, four...."

[Anteros]

Outstanding writing from beginning to end but this is the part that made me tear up:

"But we had done it: the title had been all but theirs, and we had wrestled it out of their hands while the world watched us do it. This really was a result to make Football itself stand up and cheer. And cheer it did, as it did when thirteen days later we secured the title in the most dramatic fashion. Football watched, Football drank it in. Football did the Poznan at the Stadium of Light, and cheered us from Swansea and from Stoke and from Stamford Bridge. The best ever finale to the best ever season in the Best League In The World."

Class.

wonderful. What a wonderful season it was, in 30-odd years of watching City I've never hit the heights of euphoria or the depths of despair like I did last season.... and that includes '99 and every relegation.
