What A Difference A Month Makes

It wasn't so long ago that we were being mercilessly taunted that City's fate would be sealed in the up coming derby game at Eastlands where a United victory would send City down to the Championship whilst at the same time clinching the Premiership.

Well, it's given us all great pleasure to see Mourinho reeling Ferguson' back in, although Chelsea did slip up badly at Newcastle this afternoon. In parallel, City have at last put a decent run together that has seen us pull away from the relegation zone and Premiership safety for another year.

I have to say that I've no real desire to see Chelsea buy another League title, but wouldn't it now be the ultimate irony if it were City who decided United's Premiership fate having had talk of the treble and City being relegated shoved down our throats for most of the season.

What greater motivation do City need when both teams take to the pitch on the 5th May then lobbing a massive spanner in the works to deny United the Premiership title. It couldn't have been better scripted. Another 3 - 1 would do very nicely !
