They score their 3rd with their 43rd and win it with 90 seconds left!

Unbelievable finish , 2 goals to Man City in the last 5 minutes . Unbelievable .

Unbelievable to see the response from the City fans.

92 minutes gone they were nearly universally heartbroken. Within minutes they'd be experiencing the greatest high of their sports-supporting life. Unreal.

Reminded me of the 1979 FA Cup final when Arsenal beat Man Utd 3-2 . That was when the FA Cup final was big .

Congratulations to Man City .

Quite possibly one of the greatest nights of sporting theatre, nerves, adrenalin and astonishment I've ever sat through.

Like 45HG I was watching the Spurs game, witnessing the roller coaster of emotions of the crowd as West Brom fell behind and then snatched the lead. The rumour going around White Hart Lane that West Brom has scored a third (witness crowd members holding up three fingers in hope) got my heart racing. Alas once the equaliser came there was only ever going to be one winner sadly. The deflation the crowd when the Gunners scored was palpable. After 80 minutes I abandonded our hopes for third and was madly flicking between the two Manc games and the West Brom-Arsenal game.

That last five or ten minutes were a blur. I also had the espn twitter feeds going on my PC to see what the other games were doing. Unbelievable scenes when Citys third went in, an even better sight was Ferguson getting the news of it, and ushering his confused players off the pitch.

There were so many mad things going on. Tim Cahill red carded after the final whistle as the Toffees smash Newcastle and finish above their Merseyside rivals for the first time in a long time.

Joey Bartons red mist moment. This mindless thug deserves 20+ weeks for all his repeated indiscretions.

Cisse from QPR hugging one of the Man City players in jubilation after the whistle as the players ran off to avoid the catatonic fans.

Truly a memorable night.

what a great season, the two at the top, the four who were playing off for a place in CL and of course the relegation battle for the real fans. This league is so good to watch and for good reasons.

Cant wait for the transfer window to kick off to see my Chelsea boys spend up big (only way to stay competitive now)

That was Nasri he was hugging, a fellow French international. They also played together at Marseille.

One guy I did feel for was Shauny Wright-Phillips who is City through and through and contributed to this success that the team is now seeing. I'm sure he would've been able to share in some of the celebrations behind closed doors. I hope he was able to.

Sickening end to the season but congrats to City. Dont buy their domanance though considering they equalled points when United have no midfield and serious injuries all the way through the season

CL final was even more sickening and feel really bad for Spurs

I reckon Next season will be determined by how clubs spend this summer. Looking forward to euros though

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
