I was one of them. But even now something about them winning the league just doesn't sit right with me. I don't believe in fairy-tales, miracles and the like, so the fact that a team who had escaped relegation by the skin of their teeth (at one stage seven points adrift at the foot of the table) one season, replace the manager in the summer, and win the Premier League the following season for the first time in their history...?
As I say, something just isn't right.
I honestly didn't think they could be more hated than they used to be, however, they are now even turning on each other, a sort of self hatred...l.
Still Custis will say it is progress
I've always felt it's a special achievement to be loathed by everyone when successful, and still loathed when not.
United Supporters group responding to PEG about the lack of noise in the theatre of nightmares. Best response IMHO would be play more attacking football!

Give it up. The prem was in a poor state a few seasons ago and Leicester actually had a very good team. Everything went right for them and fair play to them. I found the bitterness towards them from City fans a tad embarrassing, no different from RedCafe at the minute.
Oh, I'm certainly not bitter, not by a long way. It was like a 'perfect storm' for Leicester: everything came together for them. Fair play. But there will always be that nagging doubt in my mind that somehow they 'assisted'.
Maybe I'm just a cynical old sod.
