1. Good team that plays some decent football. Shame it's been put together with corrupt Arab money. Proof I guess that corruption can buy you anything you want.
2. What was all that virtue signalling with the deaf woman handing out the awards? For some reason people believe it has to be done in today's world. The worldwide audience for the award ceremony couldn't give a flying feck.
3. Why wasn't their tea lady introduced and brought out onto the pitch? Everyone else in their organisation was??
4. Credit to the City fans for applauding Bruno when he was subbed and also for applauding the Albion team during their lap of appreciation. Would they have been quite so magnanimous though if they hadn't just won the title?

First half hour our fans and the atmo were electric. As soon as the city 3rd went in they were good but before that poor - probably nerves. I liked giving the disabled lady the chance to present the medals - good on them.

You missed the tea lady being introduced along with the program sellers etc

It is the sign of the times that people like you these days boil doing anything nice for people down to ‘virtue signalling’. Have a word with yourself.

They had SIX full time Chefs. Counted them after the ridiculous number of medical staff.

What an utter plum (the OP).

You've been looking for a new phrase to attack the disabled for years. I'm glad the alt right have invented one and you found it on the internet.

Well done.

I had a fantastic time, I’ve never enjoyed a defeat so much! Taking the lead and 90 seconds of hope,great atmosphere, the sun was out, nice sporting gestures for Bruno/Kompany from opposing fans, flames, streamers that glided beautifully towards the North, emotion, applause, Bruno!

There were 25 arrests at the game today, I wonder how many were City fans that ran on the pitch.

Serve them right you have to be thickest fans in the country. 30,600 fans today had basic intelligence to realise if you run on the pitch, no only would you miss the trophy celebration, but you would also miss the cup final and the next 10 seasons.

Goldstone - what a sad Mother F***er.

As for other, how many chefs do we have, how many medical staff looking after the team.

We would do exactly the same if we were ever in their shoes and I'm sure TB would insist on all the backroom staff being involved.

Disappointing that they equalised straight away with the ball going through Ryan's legs. It might have been a very different game and result if that didn't happen.

Piss poor support from them until they went 1-3 up. Shame we conceded when we did, could have been very different.
