      Can I suggest that the club record the crowd noise on Wednesday night, and then use the recordings to play if we have to play the rest of our home games behind closed doors. Just an idea.

      Could have done with a few recordings to be played on Saturday too - ground was like a morgue

      It would be a huge shame if the corona virus craziness kills the celebrations or has us winning the title in an empty stadium but this is one that will be savoured for several months and nothing will dumb down my celebrations! 30 frickin years!!! I've been thinking about that all weekend, i'm 45 so I was in my final year of school the last time we won the bloody title. To be told then that it would be another 30 before it happened again! Let's hope the Gooners do us a favour midweek and then Monday night could potentially be the most incredible way to win it away at woodison!!!! How good would that be!!!

      If the stadium ban comes into play I'd rather us win it against Everton. The thought of us clinching the title at that shithole & it almost certainly being the last ever title to be won at Goodison would soften the blow a bit of us not being able to do it in front of any supporters.

      If the ban doesn't happen then I'd want it won at Anfield 100%

      Oh I agree be good to win there but doubtful unless City completely down tools against Arsenal and Burnley

      Arsenal or Burnley. If they lose either one of those we can win it at Goodison.


      That being said the culture secretary has just announced that there are no plans to play sporting events behind closed doors - so Crystal Palace at home Saturday after next will do nicely!

      Being a selfish pr###, I'm hoping we win it at home to Palace on the 21st, as I've got a ticket!   :f_whistle: >:D

      We deserve the league. I really wish City lose another game from the next two so to win it at Blueshit home ground.

      How mad is this for a scenario - If we'd have beaten Watford, we could have potentially won the title during the game against Atletico on Wednesday as Man City face Arsenal on the same day.

      So in theory we could have won the league title & got knocked out of the Champions League all within the space of about half an hour  :lmao:

      Even as it is, the atmosphere in the ground might be a bit odd if City are dropping points. I see they kick off 30 minutes before we do so the result definitely will come through while our match is still going on.

      But as you say, if we had won vs. Watford and then clinched the title even while we were losing a match to Atletico at home, that would have been a strange atmosphere.

      Instead I like not clinching the title this Wednesday (I want it to be with a referee blowing full time and our victorious players, having just won the deciding game, celebrating with the fans, preferably at Anfield), but advancing to the Champions League quarterfinal with a result against Atletico.

      I love the PL coverage we have here in the states, but I'm tired of the them saying, "Liverpool to win their first PL title" We won it 18 ffnn times, they just changed the name of the old first division, just like the European Cup !!!

      That's what I keep saying...does my head in when people keep on about that  :mad:

      Just ask the mancs how many European cups they've won (100% less than us like)
      Its the same thing European cup/champions league

      Division 1/Premier league

      Just branding

      Its 19 top division league titles

      They've just got whacked 4-0. This is their cup final, the only thing they have left to look forward to for the next 6 months. The league title could be at stake. That's enough ammo for them. But if we do win the league, you might hear a boo or two near you at the end of the game. Booing is a weekly pastime over there since the year dot.

      So given the choice, are you sure you really want to win it there, when you could be sat with 50,000 friends celebrating a few days later?

      Gut feeling is that the Palace home game is going to be behind closed doors.  Could really do with City stuffing up in one of their next two games.

      Disagree based on what sky sports were saying today about sporting events not being under major threat at the moment but I think the way it’s looking Henderson might be hoisting the trophy high into an empty anfield in May

      Apologies. I was only speaking as a former microbiologist.  Sky Sports have probably got it right.  ;)

      1 becomes 10 becomes 100 becomes 500 and so on. I hope you are wrong but I fear you are probably correct.

      Has to be the stupidest question ever!!

      The chance to win the league there, at Goodison, especially after the way the wankers carried on last season. Too F***ing right I'd love to win it at the pit.

      The mancs couldn't stop some of our lot getting into OT when they were rebuilding, there's not a chance in hell they'll make the Palacegame behind closed doors, otherwise I can see a mass sale at B & Q on boltcutters & sledge hammers. Coronavirus or no Coronaviirus we're celebrating winning that league  ;)

      A game behind closed doors to prevent the spread of a virus.
      I need someone to explain to me how not letting 50 odd thousand people in a stadium is going to prevent spreading but having those same people crammed into pubs watching on tv (along with a few million others) isn’t a threat?
