On Monday evening the love-in going on over on everybody's favourite Kopite fan-club gathering TALKSport was utterly absurd.
Some woman on there who was Rs was banging on about how much it would mean to 'the city', and how it would be this huge tidal wave of emotion and relief. They quoted Roy Keane (who must have been on the wind-up) as saying they 'played like champions' this weekend, and fell over themselves to say how true that was etc etc - this is after hanging on for a narrow win over a side which hasn't won away for nine months!
The consensus was that, with City's injury problems they have the real chance to get so far clear by Christmas that this time it can't possibly be caught. This is of course completely ignoring the fact that this injury-ravaged City defence has conceded precisely ONE more goal than the defence containing the sainted Van Dijk, Robertson and Terence Trent D'Arby as ever-presents.
Still, no point letting facts get in the way of a good tonguing. City shipping a massive nine goals in ten games clearly makes them easy meat.
Hurrah! I for one welcome our racist murdering sanctimonious overlords...
