No trophy presentation at Etihad

The Premier League has announced that, if Manchester United wins their 20th league title at their neighbor's ground, they will not hold the trophy presentation at Etihad. Instead, the trophy will be presented the following week, after the match against Swansea at Old Trafford, as they prefer to present the trophy at home.

The trophy at its home, Old Trafford

It sure would be sweet to stomp on the bitter rival's turf and celebrate our superiority there, but I do agree with the League in that I prefer trophy presentations to be held at home. I want to watch the players celebrating at Old Trafford, in front of ~70,000 fans, instead of ~2,600 fans at Etihad. Plus, Old Trafford just looks better than Etihad. ;)

Race to the title

I know we still have a few matches to go, so this might be a bit premature. I'm not superstitious, except when it comes to United; I really don't want to jinx this, but right now, the title is really ours to lose.

If United and Manchester City gets the same number of points until the two sides meet at Etihad on April 30th, a win will clinch the title. It's squeaky bum time, and we have the experience to go through the last stretch better than anyone. Momentum is also going our way, even though we haven't displayed our best performance lately.

Pressure is definitely on - shown by United's recent trip to Scotland as Sir Alex Ferguson's attempt to ease the tension - but this is what we're good at, the second half of the season.
