Shocking Journalism

Utd fans were 2nd for 5/6ths of the season and had plenty of time to come up with excuses but there isn't a good one

City won the title in the face of hostile officials and pundits with Utd playing against 10 men on a record 6 occasions in the league and there were a number of very dubious penalty decisions.

For the loss of Vidic we had Tevez and anyway Vidic without the pace of a fit Ferdinand is not the player some Utd fans think he is

The media bias probably cost us some suspensions and kept Rooney and Scholes out olf trouble, but at the same time they must have helped unite and motivate our team

OMG, do you really have nothing better to do, than mention the rags, and talk about , if this and if that, get on the groovy train lads, or carry on feeding each other custard for your sponge cake brains.

Do you think that the overwhelming majority, if not all City fans give a fook?

The final Premier League table has Manchester City at the top. Most goals scored, least goals conceded.

WE ARE CHAMPIONS!

Everyone has injuries......
Some of them are truly bad luck
City won their last (6?) Games....
Congratulations move on
Sucks to be a rag

So the reason we won the League was Utd's Injuries!!

<a class="postlink" href="http://blogs.independent.co.uk/2012/05/29/manchester-city-top-the-injury-league-with-manchester-united-bottom/#dsq-content" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://blogs.independent.co.uk/2012/05/ ... sq-content</a>

I read that piece this morning and had a totally different conclusion.

What the Physio Room report spelt out to me is that city's coaching staff prepare very very well. OK, injuries can be unlucky but there's way of minimising them.

Having said that, the Independent blogger has turned it around a bit and is probably a rag.

They wouldn't have dominated for so long if they hadn't crocked Pardoe and Bell...

"United fans might reasonably argue that their season – which ended in title defeat on goal difference to City – hinged on this woeful string of injury problems."

City fans might reasonably argue that United's season hinged on a string of appalling refereeing decision in their favour and against City and that this, not United's injury list, was what kept the league title in the balance until the very last minute.
