Pellegrini was bad enough. But at least he produced a season of great attacking football before being uncovered.
There have been two occasions where I was ready to chuck it in, one just at the moment Franny Lee stepped in to challenge Swales, two, toward the end of Pearce's reign. I didn't see why we had been through all that shit, for decades only to come out the other side, at long last, playing beautiful football, under Keegan & then go right back, to the cockney Frank fucking Clark, with no ambition.
After all the build up, if we went back to playing anti-football under that, miserable fucking **** & spent half a billion doing it, I would just fuck off.
I can't understand how the rags' public accept it.
