However, I fancy a boring 0-0 Mancini special at everton and at least the same v spurs. We could have a double celebration on cup final weekend


If the scum can also beat Arsenal, it would leave us two points behind with a game in hand. Massive win last night and massive game to come next against WHU - it's a must win.

Good point KK. A vital 3 pts putting things right in our own hands. If we can beat West Ham on sunday it really ramps up the pressure on Spurs.

WHU will fight as hard as they can and it amounts to a cup final for them. However there are advantages in that and City's quality should pay off and we can bide our time knowing they are desperate for a result. Wont be easy by any means but another ugly win would be more than acceptable. We can really take the run in into our own hands and on top of that these games are a good training ground for the team for next season. 5 difficult must win games to chase and secure the possibility of 3rd.

@ Mark Garret,

Your sig had me looking back at where Mancini presently stood compared to other City managers over the years and I was very suprised indeed mate.
If my maths is correct, (and no doubt someone will point out if I'm wrong)...his win % is 53.74...(if correct) that would put him in 3rd place of our managers, behind Sam Cowan (69.2%) and Tom Maley (59.3%). Much better than I ever expected it to be.
I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU THINK I WROTE, BUT I AM NOT SURE YOU REALISE THAT WHAT YOU READ IS NOT WHAT I MEANT
