    Lamps + Fernando start for City - They should definitely drop points.
    I was so happy for all of 2 mins until ref level sets the field by sending of GM (mistaken identity) when players are covering, not denying goal scoring opp .
    We would never get those calls.

    Stan, it was a red regardless. One of them had to go.

    We need to stop worrying about City now, if we lose the title it is because we haven;t performed.

    I do agree Jose will be the #1 reason if we **** up!
    But just saying all the 50-50 & blatant decisions going City's way.

    We are not even getting 80-20 decisions let alone 50-50 decisions or blatant ones.
    I see City finishing at 85pts. Can we get 22 off 30 available pts?

    This week is turning out to be not so good for us. I have a bad feeling.
    City, Goons, Spuds are winning...

    City are well out of form, but you see them winning eight in a row including away wins at United, Palace Spirs and Swansea?

    the question is who is going to click into decent form for the remainder? who ever does is going to win it and at this present moment, the little pony has come under pressure and is being nursed towards the finishing line. chelsea really do need a good win tomorrow, drop points at hull and the pack will smell blood

    Problem is City have no pressure to win the title now and they have obvious backing from all quarters.
    Out of the 4 away matches you have listed - Palace & Swans have nothing to play for. Spuds are dire, Manures are as good as Spuds.

    Whereas we have all the pressure and no advantage whatsoever from other factors & Jose.
    Our task can be simple provided, Jose sees and does them properly - which I haven't seen in the past few matches.

    Lets look at our away trips - Hull (Relegation & Ex Manure), QPR (queen & relegation), Goons (we are expected to win adds pressure, like 3pt lane), Leicester (Possibly relegated), West Brom (Pulis & Relegation problem - thanks to City thrashing & red card today).

    Interesting, who do you refer to here, Lizard people, Illuminati, Freemasons or some other dark group?
    As for the whole pressure thing, City are one point off dropping to third and could soon find themselves in a fight for top four. Chelsea meanwhile, are in the high pressure situation of sitting 3 points clear with two games in hand, this is just too much for top class proffessionals to take.

    So many teams are burnt in the past counting games in hand. 2 Games in hand is still 0 pts.
    We have only 3 point lead. When nobody expects them to win and Jose continues to fail, we cannot be comfortable.

    I will say we are comfortable when we have 9 pts lead and 6 games to play!

    Games in hand are worth much more when you are in front than when you are behind, you can afford to lose two games, City can`t <ok>

    Hear that but United are 12 1 2 at home and Sours 9 4 4. So both sides would fancy themselves to get something at home to City, a team who are in worse form than us at the moment

    2 mistakes from Moreno & 2 special finishes from Mata. Horrible united limp against 7or 8 men Liverpool (Can, Allen, Gerrard & Balotelli).
    Honestly you believe this Manure & Spuds - 2 teams with all the luck of the league - to take points off City?

    Hopefully, they will drop points in one game.

    They won't get the ref their own way and start with 12 men at Old T, I hope!

    IMHO - we should focus on getting 22 pts rather than expecting City to drop any.
    Next 4 matches are very crucial. If we can maintain 9pts lead going into last 6 - title is sewn up.
    Jose needs to tweak the team.

    City have Palace and United next, both away.

    We have Stoke and Queens.

    We play before City in both games and can put pressure on them by winning.

    So we could even be anything from up to 12 points ahead of them before they play United. I'm not being greedy though, 11 would be great (us two wins, they draw v Palace!!)

    But seriously even if we draw v Stoke and beat Queens, and they beat Palace we'll be seven clear before they play United!!

    I think Chelsea will win it by 10 or more points despite the fact you've recently regressed into a bit of a nervous shambles.

    I hope you're right Shtevey boy.
    Its only through Citys melt down and Arsenal, Liverpool and United not realising the season had start until January that we are so far ahead.

    This sounds like a post off the Mouser board match thread (pre-kickoff) <laugh>
