Would much rather have lost our long unbeaten run against Southampton on Wednesday and gubbed the rags yesterday instead..
However, the rags winning against the odds took me back to when we used to get the odd one or 2 results against them when they were hoovering everything up..
Now the boot's well and truly on the other foot and do you know what, I think I can live with that..
We're a brilliant team, play scintillating football, admired and revered throughout Europe and are once again on the cusp of achieving the impossible and clean sweeping the prizes..
All this against the backdrop of the dippers falling off a cliff, the rags being inconsistently inconsistent, the tarquins top of the bottom half of the league table and spuds managed by the drab one..
Losing yesterday was shit but it won't derail us from the goals we have set ourselves and we're currently going about making a fkin good fist of actually achieving them..
We've all been through the wringer many times over the years following our club but one thing is for sure, we, my friends are blessed to be able to call ourselves City supporters..
We're everyone's cup final, a team everyone gets measured against and aspires to be like..
When we lose, it makes national news headlines..
I wouldn't want to change anything, were not going to win every game but we won't be too far away when the trophies get dished out..
... and not many teams can say that..!
