Erm no why would City brag about a 2-1 lead ? 2-1 is a bad result for a home team
This is the point I was making - bragging about a one goal victory is rubbish. City fans don't do it, United fans do. Because the vast majority of United fans selected the team especially because of their success. They like to cheer for the winner.
And it's that way with any team which is successful. You don't think that Chelsea gained their share of fairweather fans in approximately the same proportion lost by Arsenal when they went downhill?

But anyway 4-3 was the actual result, 2-1 was just the first leg and 2-1 is not a fantastic result for a home side when away goals are counting (pretty much anyone will back me up on that) maybe thats why they weren't bragging about it? i know a guy at work who supports City was happy that they pulled it back after losing the first goal but thought they were in a worse position.
But i know for sure a 4-3 win over 2 legs>>2-1 first leg victory (at home)

Your telling me Dynamite Kid and Stalaagh wouldn't be on here bragging if it was the reverse result? its all in good fun but they would for sure and who could blame them? We knocked you out of the cup for god sake!!

Another single goal injury time victory though. Do you think it's safe to say that while City are not there yet, they are coming close to challenging United's dominance? Or are you going to pretend that it isn't the case like the rest of the bragging fairweather bastards and continue celebrating narrow victories over the apparently insignificant team next door like you just won the Champion's League final?

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has revealed that he made a bid to sign England U-21 midfielder Adam Johnson from Middlesbrough but was "blown out of the water" by the spending power of Manchester City.
Redknapp said Spurs made a decent offer for the player, although he did not reveal how much, but he could not compete with Roberto Mancini who, with massive funds at his disposal, succeeded in adding the player to a team he is rebuilding in a bid to challenge the Premier League's top four this season.
Redknapp, who claims the amount of money now being offered to players has become obscene, said: "This week, I tried to sign Adam Johnson. I felt he would be a good addition for Spurs and I knew we had to make a decent offer for a potential top England player.
"Liverpool were also prepared to make a big offer for him but we have both been blown out of the water by Manchester City.
"They offered a far bigger transfer fee and are giving the lad much bigger wages. We could not get near". Redknapp is thought to of offered Sunderland born Johnson £500k in brown paper bags and a night in a top night B&B in Croydon with local WAG slag Danielle Lloyd but that could not entice Johnson to White Hart Lane who our sources say wanted a night in The Dorchester with Harry's daughter-in-law Louise Redknapp.
Spurs will now turn their attention to re-signing David Ginola this summer but have told Lo'real they will not pay more than £20million for the winger, which might see them battling once again with Wash & Go, who tried to sign him last season and may go nearer to the £25m that Lo'real want.
