we're still in this ok we're not

Come here Andy

RVP > Every striker in the world

City win courtesy of 2 penalties,Newcastle score and hit the woodwork and play well in the second half. Difficult to judge the teams on this performance.

We can go above Toon and still have a game in hand should we win Monday.

If Fullham's other side only get a draw we'd be 2 points ahead of them too (plus the game in hand).

3rd would be nice with some really winnable games coming up

A GOOD win v Villa and we will thrash the other teams coming up.

We haven't had a "Good" win since Liverpool but it hasn't stopped us beating teams

I'm talking about 3 and 4 goal wins ddd.

I guessed you were and so am I. But we have still won league games while not winning clearly. I'll take 1 goal wins all season.

Is filth a banned word on here? RVP

I know what you're saying ddd but some of our matches we should have put to bed early but we didn't. We made harder work of them than I think we should have done. But I still feel that with a good 3-0 win at home it will trigger a run of matches with similar scores for us except maybe WBA whom we rarely beat really convincingly. I would take a one goal win there but with the others i would want bigger wins than that.

We were unlucky today Ben arfa looks back to his best and will cause problems. If he doesn't give away another pen

When a team is up at the top Andy the luck goes with it. I was hoping that you were going to bring it back to 3-2 but you didn't although you were close. Penalties are not open play and I don't like them much even when we get them. It took City 41 minutes to open the scoring and then with a penalty which isn't too convincing in my book.

We'll buy your club,

and we'll burn it down,

we'll buy your club,

and we'll burn it down...

So you mean the real score is 1-1 i'll write to the fa

We're ruining football and we don't care

i know a lot of city fans that haven't changed. You have.

Andy,

I'm sorry I just got a bit carried away

No Andy the score was 3-1 but the two penalties means that there wasn't a great deal of difference between the two teams today.

You play Utd next and I for one am not betting against you. Penalties are strange things and can be given by mistake as refs often are wrong about them. But today for example let's suppose both had been saved then it would have been 1-1 with you hitting the post. There's a fine line between winning matches and losing them by penalties Andy. A penalty is something which is purely in the hands of a referee and are given by good luck or by bad. They are given by players diving and players not in the box when fouled. Then there is pressure on the penalty taker and the goalkeeper. You lost by penalties today Andy and next week's result will be VERY interesting.
