Not ashamed to admit I don’t mind City winning this one, really don’t want Liverpool winning the league . Same goes for Burnley last game of the season if it means Everton go down.

Were gonna get it.

No disappointments if we don't play well either.


Aye I’m fully expecting a massacre here but safe in the knowledge we’re still on the way up.

I would be surprised with a 'massacre', that doesn't fit with our current plans - even if it is Man City!

 

I think we could well lose though, sadly.

With the second best coach ever to grace the premiership we should be able to create a little bit of resistance against the cream of Europe.

Found the highlights of the 0-1 in 2004 there. Atmosphere was hot and full house. Really hope our fans don’t take any potential upturn for granted like a chunk of their fans have.

Just watched this after you posted about it.

 

What an atmosphere from City. It seems a different club. Football seemed very different then, and yet it doesn’t feel that long ago.

 

Keegan v SBR in the dugout though :love:

 

I wonder if City had gone down, whether they’d ever have been taken over in 2008. Possibly not…

 

I wonder how KK is viewed by City fans. Perhaps how we view Hughton?

He’s generally loved by most. Had them playing in a very KK way when in the Championship - scored a hell of a lot of goals with a really attacking team (Goatee, Dickov, SWP)

 

Written piece and documentary below for a recent view.

Any idea what the City lineup was that day. Remember watching it as well. Toon fans doing the Poznan. Remember Aarons had burst on the scene and was very good this match too looked like we'd found a gem. Amazing how shit his career turned out

Was fairly strong from memory. Think Aguero came on fairly late. Definitely stronger than Abeid & Obertan put it that way!

Yeah - I hadn’t event got to my seat when we’d already conceded a penalty 3/4 years ago. Colback gave it away if I’m not mistaken?

 

 

 

I seem to remember that it was mbawa ( sorry about the spelling). City kicked off, heading to the away end, some picks up the ball on the edge of the box, he sticks out a leg, player goes down - game over.

Remember remember, Chancel Mbemba. Good shout! 
 

I also remember it being 1-1 at HT once only for Aguero to score 4 in 20 mins in the 2nd half!

 

Think Mitro opened the scoring

2) City need to be built up for el gasico
Even before their midweek Champions League defeat at the Bernabéu, Manchester City’s home match against resurgent Newcastle looked one of the more likely banana skins on their top-flight run-in. Until, that is, you examined Eddie Howe’s record against Pep Guardiola – a miserable 11 defeats from 11 with an aggregate score of 34-5. All but one of those losses occurred before Wor Eddie joined Pep in the managerial ranks of the nation state-owned sportswashing vehicles, only to lose his first el gasico derby 4-0 at St James’ Park in December. His much-improved side travel to the Etihad Stadium to take on a team that were left floored and visibly distraught after their mugging by Real Madrid. It is up to Guardiola to rally his troops, a task that may take some doing. After City’s failure in a massive midweek test of their mettle, a season that promised so much could be completely derailed by Sunday evening. BG
