Forget the fact that we are all football fans and by nature are partisan, for anybody to come out with ''City don't stand a chance,'' it shows that either they are extremely blinkered or extremely stupid. Beckham, for obvious reasons falls into the second camp. If it were the rags, dippers or anyone else at the top of the league by 5 points at this stage, nobody in their right mind would come out with such a statement.
Maybe City won't win it but such mouthings are cringeworthy at this stage and it shows an inate petulance and arrogance in his nature that is clearly manifested in a knee jerk reaction, like some kid who has been told to behave himself.
