Which 3 City losses have made you most angry with City, and which 3 losses have made you proud of to be a Blue!

I genuinely can't believe this is up there in anyones top 3. All it was doing was delaying the inevitable. We won the title.
Am I getting it wrong and that we didn't win the title?


We equalled the record for the earliest Premier League title win (5 games to spare), beating every team in the league throughout the season,

It was not beating the cunts to confirm the title.
 
The CL Final in Porto has to be on the list, especially for seeing Aguero come on late in the game desperate to repeat his QPR heroics and end up losing.

So does the 1955 Cup Final, if only for it being my first football match and starting me off in life with the notion that City would upset me.

But in between those two is the worst of all, more than forty years on nothing in football has hurt more than the 1981 Cup Final replay. Surrounded by Spurs fans, ran gleefully up and down the Wembley steps when Mackenzie scored and again after the penalty to make it 2-1, all before the agony of that Ricky fucker's goal and the taunts of the celebrating Cockneys.

Strangely, being at Stoke singing 'Are you watching Macclesfield' as it became clear we were going down was one of my prouder moments as a City fan. That black gallows humour was something to behold that day.

The train driver coming back from Stoke that day announced ‘next stop macclesfield’ as we pulled into the station

Half the carriage burst into laughter
 
Proudest loss. Probably FA Cup tie at the Etihad against rags in 2012. We had them absolutely rattled, and after losing our captain, probably unjustly. Vin wrote an open letter about it, a very dignified exposition. It was also after that match that Mancini came straight out and said it, that we would be champions. He'd seen the steel in the team that day.

Chelsea, CLF

Terrible thing about that was that Chelsea really weren't much cop. One of the biggest games in the history of the club and we simply froze. Very similar, incidentally, to the first time we got to a semi-final, under Pellegrini, and just froze as if we were surprised to find ourselves on that stage.
 
Another vote for both Wigan and Chelsea in the Champions League final. Lincoln City home and away in the Coca-Cola cup was grim. A good shout with the Rooney's shinner winner in 2011. Plenty of encouraging signs we were ready to compete dispite that.
