U***d aren't in the title race.

Silly silly boy. That has to be the stupid post of the day.
Cheers
I disagree even the rag fans I talk to think Chelski have got this season wrapped up.
Well I disagree again, the rag fans I've spoken to think they more than matched Chelsea and on that performance will still push them for the title.
Saying the title race is over in November is completely ridiculous, as has been proved on countless occasions.

Even if you take this seasons target to be top 4, if we win our game in hand (which would not be the miracle some seem to think) we would be top 4. I would say that puts us pretty much on target.
But you go ahead and panic if it makes you feel better.
This season has been a strange season, the dross we have drawn against have managed a win against the scum and one of them is currnetly winning against Liverpool at Anfield.
Light travels faster than sound.
Thats why some people appear bright until they open their mouth.
DISCLAIMER- My views are mine alone, and probably rubbish anyway.

what formula would you use?
A + B = C
(where A = Manchester City, B = £200 million and C = Barcelona)
or
A = B - C
(where A = Progress, B = City's current performance, C = City's recent past performance)
X + Y = Z
(where X = City, B = £200 million and C= 4th)
What do y & z = ?
y=why and z=not
haha. classic doom logic.

And there was me thinking it was said by our PM Jim Callaghan shortly before he was ousted from No10 by a certain Mrs Thatcher.
PS - He didn't actually say it! The Sun said it for him! ;-)

What are the fans stated aim for this season?

The difference is that the club have only stated that for season 09/10 their aim is to finish in the top 6, forget what some people think the club is aiming for.
That stated target was
a) before the penny dropped that Platini was serious about stopping clubs spending their owner's money
x) before the statement that we'd brought forward several transfer windows worth of spending ahead of schedule
and z) before the arrival of £200,000,000.00 worth of new players
If anything other than 4th is the aim then they aren't serious about the ten year plan. I think they are serious and that they therefore will want to do their utmost to break the top 4 this season. You clearly do not?
So, neat answer but taking your spin off how the
club must be thinking, can you state where they have said they have amended their desire to be better than a top 6 club this season??
