It Looks Like the Game is Up!

Manchester United 0 Sunderland 0


Oh dear, what can the matter be?
Oh dear, what can the matter be?
Oh, dear what can the matter be?
Chelsea's so long at the top!


Oh dear, Sir Alec! It looks like the game is up, and time to congratulate Jose on a fine season leading from the front. What in horse racing terms might be called, an all the way winner.


It seems that your team did everything but win against Sunderland last night. Unfortunately, everything but win is to lose , as even the draw might just have cost you the premiership title. That’s unlikely but it is possible. United's recent form, before last night, was top drawer and creating an exciting climax, to a Chelsea dominated season. It began to look as if you could just stop them in their tracks. Not to be though, and it's a good bet to believe that Jose will be chuckling to himself this morning.


No matter what happens at Bolton today your ascent may well have ended. There are mountains to climb, and mountains to climb, but this now looks like Everest. You'd need to sign a Tiger - Tensing.
