Today is bad, don’t get me wrong but it’s most definitely not over. The game at the Etihad was always going to decide it, and still will. The result today doesn’t change that.
Winning a title isn’t easy & anyone who thought it was going to be is dreaming.
I have no doubt City will stumble at some point too. We just have to beat Southampton & then the game in 10 days will decide it, like it always was going to.
If you want to quit now, go ahead.
After a surreal few days, I’m delighted that we have navigated a way through this. I want to thank you all for the incredible support, particularly my colleagues at BBC Sport, for the remarkable show of solidarity. Football is a team game but their backing was overwhelming. 1/4

Overheard a university student say “Arctic Monkeys were my dad’s favourite band when I was little.” The passage of time is relentless, unfathomable, cruel, and unforgiving.
