For a team that is apparently shite. They are doing well to be level with us.
Until the league is ours I suggest that we keep our mouths shut regarding their demise. I've been posting on this board for five years now and every year is the year they are apparently on the brink of demise. Every year they normally win more than we do.

It's shit like this that make us sound like bitter nobs, sorry.
Were we amazing vs Stoke or did they just roll over for us?

That is only one example and that games was home. If we would had played on Britannia we would had a hell of a game and i think we will have in may. On the other hand, they rolled over teams at their homes, teams that had great games with us (QPR, Everton), teams that stood and watched them score and score.
There isn't a wake up call, imho, but the "respect" that you know who receives from other managers. We are far the best team in the league and this is a realistic attitude, but our games are 200 % harder than our title rivals.

We have played better than the rags pretty much all season. They were lucky to catch the fixtures the way they have & that nobody got stuck into them when they were on their knees. If for instance, they had played today's WBA team (frsh from a morale boosting victory at Newcastle) a week after losing to us, they would most likely have dropped points. If they had to pay Martin Oneil's Sunderland, they may have dropped points, but they didn't they played Steve Bruce's. That also had a home game after every CL game (in their shitty group) & still got knocked out. Everything that could go for them fixtures & form wise has gone for them but they are not top of the league, they are second & they have to come to our place.
I'm sure though, that with the help of the media & sections of City fans desperate to build up their confidence & dent ours they can give it a good go.

Perhaps there just a section of City fans who have become a tad bored of hearing how shite they are and ending up with egg on our face.
It has been neck and neck all season and the only time we have been much better than them all season is when we played them. We went 5 points clear that day and now it is level which suggest they have been in better form than us since then.
They came up against an in form Wigan against a manager who has actually called out the Fergie clique?
Everything that has gone for them? They have lost quite a few of their better players of late.

I've listed some of the things that have gone for them. Are you saying I'm wrong ?
Just as a matter of interest, did you actually watch any of their performances in those games after the 1-6 ? I said last week; I thought they played quite well v wolves & QPR & I thought Stoke rolled over for us but when they played v Sunderland etc they were fucking abysmal & Sunderland rolled over & died. When we are shit, we are shit yet when the rags are shit; it's all part of a cunning plan. Well imo, they are fucking lucky to be were they are & part of the reason is that teams rolled over for them when they were there for the taking. So long as everyone continues to perpetuate the myth of their invincibility, then the next potential bad spell they hit will also be made easier for them. They will hit another potential bad spell & be vulnerable to results like ours today but I have no confidence in teams to hold it together & do a job on them.
We will probably have to do it again. I think tey once won the league without beating anybody who was remotely any good, which says it all really; the dregs raised their game v the others & folded v the rags.

So far they have beat Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal quite easily. Outwith us thats the top five.
Were United the only team Sunderland under Bruce rolled over for? I seem to recall they lost to quite a few teams far worse than United.
I for the record, think we will win the league. I just wont be blaming others if we dont.

Well actually, Spurs rested players so they'd be fit v us, Arsenal well you fucking know what happened there & Chelsea ran fucking rings round them. This is the problem when people 'discuss' topics like this; they don't discuss it rationally at all or take any of the points on board. If you read what I posted, you have neither answered nor even considered any of it.

Just hope that isn´t the difference. All will be revealed in good time
