Liverpool bottle it. Well played Palace :cool:
Absolutely delighted. Well done palace!!
Come on Man City finish it off.....
Liverpool, Man City, Chelsea, had to fancy Man City as the lesser of 3 'evils'.
It was pretty well timed too.. :-)
On the BBC text updates the commentator pointed out Palace havent conceded from a set piece this season.. then did.. good night for it.
Liverpool are great to watch. They've been the best team but agree with Carragher after that.. defence may have cost them the title, if they concede at the weekend it'll be 50 goals against them in a season, cant remember the last time a title winning team did that.
Must be Cities now, they need 4 points from two home games against two teams with nothing to play for.
Come on you blue nosed, Bertie, taches, tonight is pretty similar to when you last scraped it - your rival shouldn't've let it go but did. You have to know you've been gifted the chance again and all you need to do is f**kin focus and get the points,,,,Villa ffs. Please don't let Stockport down:(
2 - 0 now, almost game and league title over.
3 - 0 now with only minutes to go.
Good week for Danbert the old boy.
Good do, finished 4 - 0.:)
Great goal by Yaya Toure :cool: 100 premier league goals that's entertainment value :D
Congrats to Gus Poyet, I thought he had lost the confidence of the team a while ago but he turned it round :cool:
not a great points total but fair play 100 goals is a good effort.
I still think Liverpool have been the best this season but have dropped silly points. defensively they've not been good enough.
Its hard to look beyond City next season too.
Great by Poyet, I thought they were down.
Sunderland and Crystal Palace have had almost as big a hand in the title run-in as Liverpool's defence.
we moan about sacking managers.. but those worked.. saying that everyone down there sacked there manager almost.. I think its 9 of 20 teams who swapped managers this season.
Sunderland, West Brom, Norwich, Fulham, Cardiff, Swansea, Man Utd, Spurs, Palace,
Poyet has done a superb job there, but still reckon Pulis as manager of the season.

Any other pitch invaders out there? I'm somewhere among the marauding band of scousers on the pitch after clinching the title at Wolves. That looks like the fourth and final invasion that night, Liverpool were 1-0 down and got three goals in the last 15 minutes with a pitch invasion after each goal.
My last pitch invasion was after Morecambe's final match at Christie Park, by then I was 55 so it was more of a stroll round the pitch with a couple of mates reminiscing about old times

Unless your aim is to kill off lower league football this is a f**king stupid idea.
'Only 32% of Premier League starters qualified to play for England compared to 69% 20 years ago' Anyone remember how we got on in the 1994 World Cup:confused:
I was at this last match at Christie Park. My one and only pitch invading moment (apart from forays onto the pitch when I was a ball boy for Birmingham City). Was a cracking night. My abiding memory will be the Daggers keeper, Tony Roberts, joining in with the abuse against him. Legend!
I agree, isn't that what the Premier Reserve League was all about till the clubs decided not to play in it any more and we ended up with an U21s type league? Championship reserve teams could also get promotion to the old Premier Reserve League. It was also split North and South.
Dyke is an idiot - a classic case of the "chocolate teapot effect" where somebody that nobody likes working with gets repeatedly promoted to avoid - he will've spent all his time in meetings/preparing PowerPoint slides and on jollies touring round Europe making notes of what they do in other countries, surrounding himself with yes-men that will collaborate on a report that says "er... let's try some of those things..."
none of the "proposals" will actually ever happen, then he can resign in a huff, saying that the "system" is too intransigent... then go on to another well paid job in another field...
Manchester United legend Sir Bobby Charlton guarantees supporters the club will finish above rivals Manchester City next season. City are on course to win the Premier League title, while United have endured a tough campaign and sacked David Moyes as manager in April. But Charlton, a director at United, says it will be different in 2014-15.
He said: "Next year I guarantee that we will be number one in Manchester. We like to be first and we will be first."
David Moyes was named as Manchester United's new manager on a six-year contract on 9 May 2013.
Happy Anniversary David!
Hope the players have slept better than I have!
Nervous, excited...stuff of dreams.:cool:
Come on City!!!
(Goes to wash mouth out with bleach)
Very tricky day for you Heathen!! Have a good one Danbert! :)
'ere we go :D
Well done Vinnie :D
bit over the top like, seeing as though City are 1 of only a handful of teams who could have won the league and who's squad value is a few hundred million, stuff of dreams is a bit strong!!
Gateshead getting back into the football league next Sunday is the stuff of dreams... ;)
Well done City :cool:
Well, thats it for this season. City champs. A 2 trophy season.
Danbert on the pitch, the stuff of dreams.
