I can't begin to explain how elated I feel. It's 3.25 am as I begin to type this and I'm completely and utterly restless. I can't sleep and I don't want to.

I watched the game at home today with my dad, who's fast asleep in bed as he has work at 5am, god bless his soul, and despite it being just me and him it was incredible. I'm not going to pretend I thought it went swimmingly; at about 4.40pm I was devastated. I mentally, sadly, predicted that City'itis would strike. I just thought it was all set up that we'd fail, in the most spectacular fashion - even the Barton red card added further weight to that belief. It was all too (predictable?) good to be true.

But fucking hell, how we turned it around.

Is it just me or does everyone else feel completely stunned. About an hour ago it struck me that David Silva plays for Man City. As does Sergio Aguero. It's completely mental. In my head we're still the crappy little City that has Bernardo Corradi and Samaras running the show for us, if not Bob Taylor and Lee Bradbury. I'm 26 years old and that's all i've experienced, and to be honest I find it hard to believe that we have could players with that talent, yet we do. It's incredible. Truly amazing. We have world class players just bursting from the seams of the fabric of the club and at times I don't realise how lucky we are.

Its amazing. They are different class, and they play for us. 'lickle citeh'....we should realise how blessed we are. This is something else.

This is City of 2012. This is a team that fears nothing. This is our team. It's incredible. I can't accept it, cos my mind tells me otherwise, but I will fucking try. I love you, City. Never change.

CHAMPIONS.

Came to work tonight and I've been chatting to some neutrals. They're all saying how I must be the happiest man alive etc, but the very odd thing is I'm not.
I have a weird emotional detachment going on, like when you're at a funeral wake having a laugh and a joke, and you know you should feel sad, but at that moment in time, you just don't. You know you will tomorrow, and next week, and probably for months after, but there is a suspension of normal emotion for a period of time. I spoke to another regular poster earlier and he said a similar thing. Is it anybody else, or am I just fucked up?
I think that because I have wanted this more than anything for as long as I can remember, I don't know what to do now that it's here. I've spoken to rags, and found myself almost commiserating with them. I thought I would want to inflict every ounce of misery I could on them. Probably gloat so much I got my head kicked in. But none of these things have happened. I'm thinking I'll wake up tomorrow, think about it for a bit and spend the rest of my life with a smile on my face.

You'll be reet mate. A power shift so momentous as this is hard to rationalise. Now we are Kings. Let it sink into your very marrow, and cherish it.

First i see miss from Ballo from corner in 90 min and then i was thinking its all over i turn araund becose after second corner QPRclear the ball i was thinkng , how , how fucking rags have so much luckand thinking abaut how much i wil hate Lescoot ( by the way first transfer for us this in summer must be relly good central defender, first transfer i think club is good on all position acept that Savic cant be replecment)and to continue i just herd roarrr from tv i didnt even see the goal live becose i was put my head in hands i look uup see Edin runing towords centar with insane look on hes face and bob claping and i was thinking two atacks maybe three and now i wont to apologize Nasri dor swering when he let ball go tp out i was insane and then that like when De jong pass ball to Silva i was in my< mind some how sure we will have chance now last one , Ballo with last drop of strength pass it and i was looking like in flash Kun not shooting passing player and then BOOOOOOOOOOOOM , I REALY CAN SAY IN THAT MOMENT MY BRAIN WAS HAVING INSNE LEVEL OF dopamin he was having sex with that goal ,i was jumping hiting stuff screming ,and when i stop i see Fergie and thinking yea devil is come for your end of contract, and i m even now in some unreal dream, to win title is amazing but to win it like that is unreal...To be a City fun ....

Only thing I can compare it to is 1997 general election night but with even more drama! Astonishing, unreal, mind blowing. Did it really happen?

I am just totally drained.It feels like I had too much to drink last night in celebration but havent touched a drop.I understand the strange feelings of detachment as it takes some time to really really sink in.

I was 100% confident before the game ( well maybe 99%) and was feeling totally numb with 5 minutes to go. Couldnt speak ,couldnt think or do anything and then the finale.I can't get enough of the clips of the goals and all the interviews with fans,players and anyone who wants to talk about it.

Brilliant to hear from all the players and especially Vinnie who ..........I cant find the right words to say how special that guy is as a footballer,a captain and as a man.Truly special.Can't wait to watch tunnelcam and carry on savouting this and then an early trip into town for a hobble to Albert Square.

Highlights on the OS. amazing stuff!

Im absolutely fucking shattered. but this smile will not be coming off my face for a long time. i have NEVER seen anything like that in my life.

im glad it happened that way
