I am old enough to remember the scores on the final day of the season when City last won the league title. City beat Newcastle 4-3 and we suffered a 2-1 defeat to Sunderland at Old Trafford. However, I can’t remember exactly where I was on May 11, 1968 when the scores came through. Probably in a…

Nemanja Vidic’s agent Silvano Martina has dismissed rumours from Italy that he has been approached by Juventus regarding a possible summer move to the Serie A for his client. The 30-year-old hasn’t played since December after suffering cruciate ligament damage in Manchester United’s defeat to Basle. No, not even a spell that long could quench speculation…

A Vincent Kompany goal during first half injury time was enough for Manchester City to claim all 3 points against a massively below par Manchester United. In what was billed as the “title decider” City’s victory took them back to the top of the table on goal difference, with just two games remaining. Following the collapse at…
