Equidistant between her and the board learning about hyperbolic functions would be nice.

Keowns justification was titles - they won 3 PL tiles on the bounce so thats his criteria - we clearly point to our superior football and the fact we are likely to eclipse any goals and points total they ever had. We will just have to win everything ( and put up with the brickbats that brings) to shut them up eh?

The football they played was very basic, 4-2-4, lots of crosses to 2 forwards, no guile. The PL in that era was full of cannon fodder except for 2 or 3 teams - it was full of naive, bend over teams with zero resource, won't even start on the outrageous decisions united got in addition to that. The football nowadays is on another level tactically, athletically and skill-wise, if you could transfer a team like Bournemouth back in time they would smash them, never mind this city team.

how he had to be called into St Bede’s to help City’s youngsters who literally all fail their GCSEs

Even if this were true, they'd still mostly be going on to be professional footballers earning a great salary doing something they love while he'd still be a bitter tour guide on minimum wage doing grinds to pay his bills.

Pity Mourinho was never informed about the uplift .

Agricultural still reigns at the Swamp.
 
Every time I see piss can in the ‘crowd’ at the swamp it reminds me......

Sir Alex - asked if he ever saw a time when the champions would be derby underdogs - replied: "Not in my life-time."

Spoke to soooooon!
 
Only 1 point above Spurs now and they'll be 3rd if Liverpool win tonight. Selhurst Park is a tricky ground so I'm hoping Palace can get something against them on Monday.

Palace are in the relegation zone so should be up for this. 3 points brings them out of it :)

If we lift the title against United I think we should blast out the theme to neighbours on the tannoy

Lock the bastards in and keep them there long after the celebrations have finished then play City themed songs over the tannoy at them. Just like they did for City fans including playing songs like 'we're on our way to wembley' after the 2009 League Cup semi final 2nd leg at the swamp.

Yeah was well disappointed losing to Wigan!

winning the “real” treble by the scum is some doing and will be very hard to eclipse but this team of ours has the players to do it.

I thought the real treble was the League Cup, Europa League and Community Shield. Well, it was according to every rag I know just a few short months ago.

Lets hope it's a rerun of the 3-3 game Palace and Dippers played out justbefore we took the title in 2014. That was literally the most hilarious game ever. I'll never forget how the scouse kept running back to the halfway line after each of their three goals.
