Manchester City’s one-nil loss at Swansea, combined with Manchester United’s two-nil win over West Bromwich Albion, means longstanding table-hoppers City have slipped to second place in the Premier League. But, with ten games still left to play this season and home field advantage in the potentially crunch Manchester derby, City are far from out of it. After all, they are only a solitary point behind their bitter rivals. But try telling that to this utterly miserable City fan, who wept like a baby when his team lost at the Liberty Stadium.
“Get a grip” boomed The Daily Mail, which reminded the weeper that if Mancini’s side win their remaining games, “the trophy will be winging its way to the Etihad Stadium.” “One thing’s for sure; if this fan wasn’t already facing a torrent of abuse from his United co-workers on Monday morning, he’ll now be taking the flak from both camps after they see his embarrassing moment of shame.”
