I work with a few. On Monday, one was saying that goals like their winner by Allison at weekend only happens to clubs like them and United.
I said; “What about Jimmy Glass, the Carlisle ‘keeper, scoring in injury time on the final day to keep them in the Football League? What about Watford saving a penalty on the second take then going up the other end and scoring a winner in the 97th minute to get to the Play-off final? What about Dickov in the Play-off final? What about Agüeroooooo!?”
The look on his face was like he’d never heard of any of these goals, and these are just four examples of probably hundreds from a wide variety of clubs.
They really do think they’re special, they really do think it means more to their club and them as fans. They’re a proper cult!
