Leave Twitter account for two days to simmer. Pop back in to make sure it's roasting nicely. Chuck bit of pepper and salt and leave to settle. Finally, pop back in again to find yourself a salty roasted vermin. Word of advice, don't bite or you'll be poisoned, toss the mutant in a bin.

Is the third or fourth time our guy hasn’t won manager of the year when winning the PL? When in the vast majority of other seasons it’s a shoo in
Still, I guess Pep can look over the trophy on the sideboard to compensate

It's tribalism mate. The Irish fans are very passionate and it shows at every international tournament (well, the few we qualify for !).
From a club perspective, the English League was/is the biggest show in town and a lot of Irish started supporting Liverpool because so many Irish moved over there and that created a connection.
I think the united thing came from the fact that there needed to be a rival and they were the obvious choice, coupled with the fact that a few top Irish players played for them at one point?
Anyway, as far as the Premier League goes, this was never meant to happen. They're basically confused. They were meant to do battle with each other and that's dead now, so they are bitter about it and it results in the media constantly talking about "real" football being dead, or the fact that City aren't a "real" club.
In a nut shell, we have taken their "reality" away from them.
All that said, this one isn't too bad:

I have a great personal relationship with City as I suppose we all do.
If I need to know owt, I can usually find most info on here or from stuff I am told.
City are the Premier League Champions, if the rest of the World wants to sit in a corner and either sit in a corner with their thumbs up their own arses and ignore our successes or get angry about their lost profits...that's their issue and their responsibility to deal with it.
As far as I am concerned, My team (and yours) have won a shedload of trophies in the last few years. The recruitment of players has been largely more successful than I could have expected and once again I am fukkin buzzing.
It'll be even more hllarious when we win it all again next season.

I think this is fair. After all anyone could manage/coach our team.
You know with all those out and out strikers we've got, it's easy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2012 we won it- Pardew manager of the year.
2014 we won it- Pulis manager of the year.
Now this year.
But there's no agenda!!!!!!

Brilliant. What an achievement.
