Tbh I don't really care ..we are three games from something I never believed I'd see in my lifetime with a completely genuine chance of winning Europe's major honour,And likewise any team having to go to the Nou Camp to get a result, go one down and then actually do it and should have won it
We are special no doubt about it
Walking wounded for Saturday
Mum's birthday so must give her my attention today. Will post more when she has her siesta. For now just need to keep the feeling alive as I still feel that it was all a dream. If that had been a Roy of the Rovers story, you would shake your head at the editor's wild imagination. More drama than anything TV or film could dream of. Obstacles galore to manoeuvre. Really thought the world had come to an end when Sterling "scored", real despair, which turned into unmitigated joy on it being disallowed. Every emotion under the sun in the space of an hour and a half.
Realised that this post is all over the place. ....just like me, really. Enjoy every minute my fellow supporters, the thing I love most is being a Yid.

The thing that gets me with that...a whole newsroom celebrating that they thought we had lost. (I get Cundy...he may have played for us, but he is a chav at the end of the day)This is brilliant. You know this was the reaction on hundreds of thousands of pubs, living rooms etc across the country.
Us and United fans ending up smiling.
Fucking poetry in motion. And to think that prick wore our shirt and walked out onto the Lane. Nice reminder why I won’t listen to TalkSport while they pay his wages.
Cunt.
How's the iPhone?
The worst fucking thing about all of this is that I don't even know a single Man City fan whose face I can rub this in.
Joking aside, and as lovely as last night was, they're gonna try and tear us a new one on Saturday, aren't they?
Batten down the hatches boys, it could get messy!
Personally, I'd settle for a dull 0-0!!!
Cold light of day, we really rode our luck to extreme levels last night. Ironic that Poch's best moment was probably one of the worst of his from a tactics perspective. For the first 70 minutes I must have shouted PUT WANYAMA ON DEBRUYNE about 100 times at the TV. We know City plays a system with doubling up wide men so... why the fuck wouldn't we tell Rose/Trips to stay zonal? For 2 years under Poch we played Dier in a role where he'd drop into central defence if needed - if we're not man marking KDB then at least do that with Wanyama or Sissoko. Virtually all of our problems from the first minute to the last came from allowing DeBruyne time on the ball, and falling for the inverted wingers overlapping with fullbacks trick.
Still, we won. Fuck knows how. Don't really care. Magical night, amazing scenes and I've done literally fuck all work this morning because I can't clear my head from the result.
COYS.

It's the rest of them. Doesn't lend it's self to neutral coverage.
