When was the last time camelgob won the FA Cup?

;-)
He still holds the world record for the fastest ever climb out of a toilet window.
Along with the record for the most times cheating on his terminally ill wife or the record for the biggest tantrum after the 2011 Fa Cup semi final.
Maybe this is what Camelgob means when he talks about a "proper" treble.
 
I had a bit of fun at work today, casually suggesting at just the right pitch to be within earshot of a certain colleague that if City do win the Champions League on Saturday then - after Centurions season, a domestic clean sweep and now, hopefully, a European treble - there can be no argument but we're witnessing the best English club side of all time...

Bang on cue: "that's not the *real* treble blah, blah, blah..."

"Why have your beloved United ever won a European treble..?"

Oh, the splutters, the coughing and choking the red-faced indignation that accompanied the reply...
"19...! 19...! 1999!!"

"Yeah, but I meant in *this* century..."

Like shooting fish in a barrel really.

Shut him right up last week when I dismissed the Europa League Final as the Remedial Class Cup too.
 
Maybe this is one for @Gary James, but does anyone know if this current streak of EIGHT CONSECUTIVE SEASONS finishing above that lot from Trafford, is the longest ever?
I’ve not checked but City were above Utd for 9 seasons from about 1897. I’m sure we were above them for much of the 1920s & 30s too.
 
The decision to pay the failed poet from the gate receipts, rather than from rag central, was the rags', not his, I’d imagine.

That said, he’s still a scumbag for taking that amount from a charity match.
What does it matter where it came from. The players (ex) should have felt proud to be invited and gladly gone along at their own expense. This shit brought his entourage and family, he didn't need to but being an arrogant, greedy selfish bastard he couldn't help himself.
 
Have to assume they'll beat Villarreal in the Europa League final. Silver lining would be a Manc derby for the Super Cup next season.
 
I am really not bothered what Utd do in the Europa League. I watched Villareal against Real Madrid at the weekend and the game was so slow. Unless Utd really mess up tactically, they should wipe the floor with Villareal.

I can only see Utd getting stronger to be honest but I can't see them threatening City. As long as we are above them, I don't really care what they do.
