Jesus.
I call it "thread drift"

One time, I was on a thread about tigers and it ended up being a debate about Steve Guttenburg

Their supporters are getting giddy, and will be put in their place when we walk away from Monday's derby with the result we need. It's not even a worry for us, that one.

If City win the title i'll walk from Old Trafford to Wastelands in my birthday suit with a red rose clenched between my cheeks. They CAN'T win the title. I'm not even saying they won't, they CAN'T win it. They're not good enough. Their manager doesn't know what he's doing, their squad do what they want, they're not even a proper team.

I even saw a supposed expert on the telly the other day saying Mankini was winning the mind games! We've not even had to bother with them, because City aren't a threat to us, either this year, or in the medium or long-term. We're Manchester United; the biggest and best club on the planet. They think we're scared of them, but we're laughing in their faces. They're losing their bottle and we're calm as cucumbers.

Easiest title we've ever won. And it is won. Thanks for the laughs City, but it's number 20 for MUFC. The only club that matters.
All I can say is LOL

In the final analysis, it was that hard won point that City won at The Hawthorns that made all the difference

Fair play the City players deserve the title, even if the club have gone about it the wrong way. City fans who have been there through the rough years of relegation to league one and were there when United were winning everything deserve it. I have no problem with them celebrating, as they have had seen it all.

However Manchester United will be back, it may take a few years but people need to remember City only won it on goal difference and United were only 90 seconds away from winning it. Manchester United have comeback from far worse than this before, like relegation in 1974 and the Munich air disaster in 1958. City will probably win it a few more times and it will be hard to watch but football goes in cycles and no team wins all the time.

City's task is now to build a dynasty like United have had and a lot depends on how much Mansour will pay, even Abramovich has slowed down on his spending. For City to match United will be hard but not impossible, as we have Won the league 12 times in the last 21 seasons and have failed to finish below third in that time, also we have only failed to win a major trophy five times in the last 23 seasons. That is a Dynasty and United domination has being superb. Fair play to City for today even if they were lucky. Enjoy your moment as the true fans deserve it, but we will be back.

I'm not so sure 'coming up smelling of roses' will be the case here based on the location but don't forget to put your walk of shame up on youtube.
