    City just won the league and alls Trevor Sinclair can talk about is United fielding a weakened side and spitting froth about us being docked 6 points. Deluded fck <laugh>

    Once a bitter always a bitter.

    I heard his little rant, he doesn't come across that well.

    Please dock them six points, three isn't enough, please make it six.

    How about City get docked the same for fielding a weakened side v Chelsea then?

    Don’t understand this weakened side talk. Can play anyone registered in the squad and I think unlimited U23’s.

    Exactly.

    Sinclair wants United docked six points for last night though, as they made ten changes.

    City are exempt though, because their subs are all world class, when they made nine changes.

    So, you can also buy exemption from any penalties in Trevor Sinclair world.

    City made 9 changes against Chelsea ... didn't see any of our lot bleating, despite it resulting in them going ahead of us in the table... all you can do is try and beat whatever is in front of you ... you weren't weakened when we beat you in the Cup quarter final, nor during the draw at ours... arguably our best season ever against United.. that's footie.

    Pretty sure there used to be a rule about it, but they changed it after they ****ed over one of the smaller clubs then got called out on their hypocrisy for not doing it to the bigger clubs too, much like when we got fined £35m for Tevez and Mascherano but Liverpool and United didn't, despite both players still being owned by MSI.

    The bloke is a complete prick. No matter how much success City have, it's that 35 odd years of butthurt he'll never get over.

    He even tried to make out City are becoming the biggest club in the world. If that's not small man penis envy, I don't know what is.

    I have a deal for you

    We cancel our to bets so you don't have to keep your current avy and the top 4 bet becomes voided.

    We go for one game winner takes all on the cup final?

    I doubt he's moaning that you've given Man City the title, he spent the peak of his career at West Ham and that result ****ed us for CL football. Personally it doesn't bother me that much, we had it in our own hands and didn't get the result we needed v Everton, so we have no one to blame but oursleves.

    Fwiw for how you've played this season if there's one club I would've been happy to see make the Top 4, it would've been West Ham.

    The problem is whatever happened, unless we won both the games against Lesta and Livpl, it would've fcked you. And of course we want to win both, but we really had no choice given the number of games.

    afaic we lost the chance for CL football when Arsenal came back from 3-0 down, and this is what cost us.

    Can't believe he didn't see red for that (that's a lie, I can believe it as it's a fairly typical West Ham v United refereeing decision)

    Well I have a problem you see

    I have another full seasons bet standing on the Toon board that I forgot all about

    How about you just change your avy and we cancel the top 4 bet?

    I don't know how else to resolve the situation

    You could honour the one on the Toon board, which I think is from a year ago, delay the one with Fosse by 1 year but double it up to 2 seasons as recompense.

    I doubt Fosse would be alive long enough to see it honoured.
