MAGNIFICENT

Man City have just put me through 45 minutes of sheer hell but, I ask all like minded LEEDS fans on here to pay homage to the new PL Kings.

When Aguero hit that winner I celebrated as if it was Beckford ramming in that winner against the GAS at ER on the final day of the season to seal promotion.

No apologies to any drearies on here who may be offended by this (you never know?) but, even the most cruel of us could not have scripted a better victory for Man City and a worse torture for the MUCS.

Forget the money they have spent - they all spend big money and some even go in hookey despite being the biggest global money making football machine in the World.

Fantastic and suddenly I am a very happy man rather than a sullen and sulking wretch.

The fun will continue at work tomorrow for sure !!!

which is why they deserve to be called idiots, yet I get abuse for having the balls to do so.

Matty, Benny, Eric koppite etc just look for any angle they can.

Their hatred of anyone with a contrary opinion prevents them from ever engaging civilly in the future. You and I sometimes disagree bitterly but it doesn't stop us agreeing once in a blue moon

wait, are you lumping me in with them as someone who does that or saying Matt - Benny, Eric koppite etc just look for any angle they can?

The latter, not lumping you with them at all.

it's good for football no matter how they've done it. Having a billionaire owner has levelled the playing field in a league where man u are the only club bringing in that kind of money through their own means. And how did they do that? selling out the rest of the league to give themselves an advantage and eliminate the competition.

Has it though?

We are now 20 years into the premiership and I cant think of many, if any, seasons where its not been a two horse race.

The two horses are now both from Manchester.

It would have leveled the playing field if in doing so they didnt just blow any hope of Arsenal or Chelsea competing with the pair of them.

Chelsea not competing with the Manchester teams ?

How thick are you ???

Yes - just had a bad season by their standards in the PL but ummm helloooo - they are in the Champions League final , have just won the FA Cup and have a ridiculously wealthy owner who will continue to invest and pay higher wages than the MUCS.

Get a grip.

Liverpool finished 5th and 4th the two seasons before they won the champions league and 5th the season they won it and then 3rd twice.

In that time they were a top club yet were never a real title contender.

Cup competitions dont mean you challenge for titles.

Man U will always be able to attract top players, Man City have the funds to do it, Chelsea are not in a pole position.

They are on a par with those teams and looking at their aging squad and the power those aged players have are going to go backwards before they ever move forwards to challenge those two clubs.

Its a two horse race, the fact that Chelsea have cash, like arsenal, liverpool, and the two manchester clubs does not mean they will be in the top two anytime soon.

Context. If it weren't for sugar daddies it would have been a one horse race.

Did Arsenal have a sugar daddy in the early 00's when they were challenging for the league title?

Or maybe they had one in 2006 or 07 when they were leading till March or so.

Chelsea have a sugar daddy and didn't compete this year?

It can be argued that with these sugar daddies coming in, the team that can get the best players for the highest price will have the best chance of winning the title...at the expense of weakening their rivals...so you are still back at square one.
