About this episode

After big investment, the other half of Manchester had high hopes and big intentions of dining at football's top table but they knew they needed a league title win under their belts first. In 2012 they finally got their hands on it.


From the 6-1 defeat of their local rivals at Old Trafford to the final, dramatic moments against QPR on the final day, The Ramble boys cast their minds back to the iconic Premier League season when Man City, now rightly considered part of the super club furniture, finally earned their stripes on the big stage.

The Football Ramble, the original and best football podcast. Brand new podcasts every single weekday throughout the Premier League season and every day throughout the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

No cliches. No ex-pros like Peter Crouch or The Rest is Football. Just the funniest football conversation out there. Your guardian for the season, daily not weekly. Stick to the Ramble, totally.
