I'm sure some @#%&!s want us to lose the next three just to make it more exciting

do you think you're 'due' to spontaneously combust tomorrow? how long has it been now? must be scientifically due, law of averages and all that.

our away form is also fantastic

and it's Wigan.....htfh

only think i'd be worried about is the ref against wigan. martinez got an apology for getting done by a bad decision at the weekend, the papers have been full of us getting a dodgy penalty/red card decision... nailed on penalty for wigan if they get within spitting distance of our area.

This. Nailed on Pen against us/stone waller not given. Hopefully will come at a time when it doesn't really matter like if we're 2 up in the 90th minute.

It does happen, you know - just not very often. Rather like Wigan getting a result against us, then

Yep, absolutely bound to get £#%&!ed over tonight after the hysterical hand-wringing since our last 2 home games.
Martinez had EVERY right to complain on Saturday tbf..that offside decision was the worst I think I've ever seen

Hopefully we'll play well enough for the Ref not to matter...but I've got a bad feeling about this one.

Our downfall this season has been taking our eye off the ball, taking it easy against the likes of Basle and Benfica, even Ajax and athletic. Blackburn and so on. This team has a tendency to stop playing when they think it's gonna be easy or already over. It's happened time and time again this season and in a way it would perfectly sum up our season if we let this lead slip or end up hanging on the way we did against Basle and fulham.

If we go into the next 3 games feeling casual we'll get stung and given the way everyone's talking thats a real danger. 1 loss or a couple of draws and they can suddenly take it down to the wire where we play Sunderland and Martin o Neil can try and make his earlier threat come true. Can you imagine the frenzy if we drop points?

Hopefully Mancini has lost the plot and the city team just implodes from here, but the pressure is completely off them now and I suspect they'll pull themselves together.

Utd never do it the easy way.

Only one had result from making it interesting, but eight is too much. A two game cushion with six to play? C'mon, weve made hard work of things in the past, but nobody had ever blown that ay this stage. And look at the two sides. We're focussed, relentless and calm.

city look like they could drop points to anyone right now. They are crushed and beaten. It's over. We may hiccup, but it Wont be enough. It's done. We've done it and itd wonderful.

Shame our players thought in exactly the same way. I'm allowed to, they are not

I think you should be quiet for a very long time.
