City Closes on Title

[Marooned]

Big week for City, 1-0 over ManUre and 2-0 over Newcastle. Sir Alex is closing in on blowing an 8 point lead..

1. There is only one team in Manchester

The other is in Salford at Old Trafford

2. Well, why not?

I'm not tremendously excited about Citeh but the alternative is worse and it's nice to have a title race at all, actually.

Man U are in trouble for the long run in my opinion. The Glazers are sucking money out of the club and only the massive transfer sum for C. Ronaldo is hiding the fact that money needs to be spent and isn't. They've been sliding into mediocrity for years actually; see this year's European matches.

For whatever reason, they do still have that undefinable "winning" mentality which City lacks in my opinion, and I can easily see City slipping up yet. I hope not.

3. The Man City owners appear to be ready to splash the cash

to make them one of the elite clubs in Europe. They aren't that far off now. Not up to Barca and Real standards but working their way towards it. Just wonder how much the FIFA Fair Play rules are going to throw a monkey wrench into their plans. They seem to be trying to sidestep FIFA with the Etihad stadium naming rights (which FIFA is taking a gander at) and now they've signed up with Nike as another funding source. Should be an exciting transfer season coming up.

As for Man U, it may take some time but the Glazers will bring them down to mediocrity.

6. What a finish!

I was more or less neutral and even I feel like I've lost weight watching that I can only imagine what it was like for the supporters. Looking at the crying United fans in the stands when their title was so cruelly snatched away from them, well, you'd have to have a heart of stone not to laugh.

Congrats, City!

Most exciting finish since '89!

8. With 80 minutes gone

I was thinking to myself I can't believe they've blown this. To QPR?? That was the most amazing finish I can remember seeing with so much on the line. I even have to give credit to that crazy Balotelli for being able to drag the ball over to Aguero for the winner. Amazing end to an amazing season. Now for the craziest season of all.... transfer season
