Of course, I meant 'next' not 'net', but now I'm back, don't you think it was completely stuffy and undeserved when United won the European Cup in 1999? Two goals in the last couple of minutes for the richest club in world football? I'm surprised the Guardian didn't launch an investigation into how huge corporations can manipulate the market. And while I'm at it, it was fix in 68. If that final hadn't been Wembley, they'd never have beat Benfica.
Man City? The Premiership? Approximately none. Although given the trend for adding new leagues above the old ones (the Premiership and now the Championship) there is a reasonable chance that in a few years having dropped out of the Super-Premiership and then been relegated in humiliating style from the Uber-Premiership, they could then win the Premiership, which would effectively be the old third division.
In general I agree Man Ure are a bunch of cheating wankers but I have to say it is difficult to imagine what the ref could do other than award a corner in the case that an opposing team player has knocked the ball off the back of the court. And since both goals were scored off corners the cheating jiggery-pokery behind the result must have been really well planned.
I have the priveledge of not having been born until 1975 so I must confess I don't have a strongly held view on the subject for that one but I do vividly remember when the mighty Ipswich (you remember them? i seem to remember we relegated you a few years back and you took it rather badly. awww di-dums...) won it in 1961/62 when I was minus 13 under the great alf ramsay.
Anyway yak yak yak, i assume your comments were intended to "hilariously" point out that women don't know anything about football. In which case you picked the wrong Tractor Girl to argue with and unlucky. Actually I play at quite a good level too. Thanks for asking.
so what was the "point" of your posts then? you wish to bet money with me? or merely to open up the debate to include the intellectual discussion of manchester city football club? or were you pissed when you wrote it?
I just wanted to see if you could reply to a bit of rambling rubbish without mentioning the battle of the sexes. Or should that be genders? That word is in vogue at the moment, isn't it?

So you're a sporting type? What chance do Manchester City have of winning the premiership in the net 30 years?

You fell at the last fence with that assumption. It's false.
