just reading the Cardiff thread, and there are plenty of the usual ‘banana skin’ comments in there. The reality is that we are by far and away the best team in the league, and possibly one of the best teams in Europe (we shall see..) so we shouldn’t be fearing anyone domestically. If we turn up, work hard and have our full team available we should beat most teams. With the best squad and the best manager, it should work most of the time.
But ...
How do we avoid the arrogance we so hate in others? (see The Pride of Singapore TM 1999-2011)
I think we (the club and the fans) carry on as we are - respectful, humble and staying mostly silent on our prospects. Let’s let the football do the talking.
However, I DO think we should strongly defend ourselves when under attack in the media or by other fans, whether its our ownership, our occasional empty seats or our spending. Just because we retain dignity does not mean we should stay silent as the gobshites from the media etc take their cheap shots.
So, quietly confident about Sunday and the rest of the season, and safe in the knowledge that our owners and manager will not stop until we are clearly the No1 club in the world...
