TFC said:I was extremely jealous of Chelsea when Roman took over and spent a fortune on class players. Their fans (quite rightly) adopted a fuck 'em mentality when dealing with bitter fans from other clubs.
Now we have won the equivalent of the football lottery, we have no real choice but to do exactly the same. Fuck 'em.
This. The rag fans did it too. Back then they were accused of buying success and because (Blackburn apart, but they faded as quickly as they appeared) the so-called 'sugar daddy' phenomenon was unheard of back then, they didn't have the easy deflection of saying ''oh but at least OUR money is 'self-generated', look over THERE at that lot instead!'' back then.
It's just a siege mentality. Everyone from the fans to the players has to develop one.
These people are easily shut up by sustained success on the pitch. The flack they give Chelsea has reduced tenfold in the last few years.
In short, head down, stick two fingers up at them and get on with winning things to shove down their throats. Because on the plus side, one thing's for sure......all these people are making our eventual success much, much sweeter. Which is nice of them.
