do you really think that the blue crap will end up in the top 6? I'd have to see it to believe it as it is city we're talking about

You make a very compelling argument taking full consideration of the strengths and weaknesses of the team.

No, wait. You actually don't.

QFT. This is City we're talking about!

Alex McLeish Resigns from Scotland job and joins Birmingham

Plenty of jobs changing in the Premier League, Steve Bruce to Wigan, Billy Davies sacked from Derby, McLeish to Birmingham, Ramos to Spurs & all the speculation with Benitez at Anfield.

Also bad news for Scottish supporters obviously he done a great job with them and nearly qualified for the Euros.

[/ QUOTE ]A simply baffling decision by McLeish. A lot of Dons fans who stuck by their legend despite managing the Huns, are in pretty uncomprimising mood today for him ducking out on Scotland for a yoyo nothing team. Very very disappointed in the big fella.

City's previous history has no relevance whatsoever on this season so your point means nothing. You're simply expressing your bias like a typical rags fan.

Based on the last 5 seasons 59 points is required to finish 6th which is 1.55 points per game. City are averaging 2.07. 1.7 points is usually enough for top 4.

I think that's slightly more relevant than your pseudo-hatred of City. Oh and as Fergiescum says this is United's best ever squad how does it feel to be only one point ahead after 14 games? LOL

no mention of this:


Portsmouth have confirmed that their manager, Harry Redknapp, was one of the five people arrested today as part of the City of London's investigation into football corruption. Redknapp was held at Chichester police station on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and false accounting.

Leicester chairman Milan Mandaric, Portsmouth chief executive Peter Storrie, agent Willie McKay and Charlton midfielder Amdy Faye were the others arrested. The five were held in pre-dawn raids after more than 60 police officers searched eight addresses across the UK.

wow.... this is the bung investigation right?

Not surprised about Harry his old school goes back to the days when it was standard, and he has always made a lot of signing at every club his been at.
I’m thrilled at the arrest of Willie McKay who has stirred up trouble and got players to put in transfer requests just so he can collect 10% notably Anelka and Barton.

Liverpool play Bolton saturday, and I stumbled over this little gem from the last time they played at Anfield: "Peter Crouch!!! Allah Alllah Allah Allah!!!!"

[kolotoure]

Arsenal are playing some ridiculous football in this game

This is the first time I've seen them this year and their teamwork looks second to none thus far.
