Yeah I'm sick of that from, especially Rag, mates too. They always include "where you've come from" meaning the 3rd tier. Conveniently ignoring any "history" before that.Bit of a moan....but I do find it tiresome to keep hearing on Sky Sports about 98/99 whenever we win the league title. yes, I can understand it being mentioned after winning our first PL title in 2012. Then occasionally referenced thereafter. However, with the way SKY Sports have been reporting in the last 18 hours or so, it's as if we are defined by our stay in the third tier. It was just one year of the club's existence.
Those cunts were in Div 2 in the first season I really remember and when I went to my first game, 1974 and I was 9. They were basically shit from about 70 onwards, bar a couple of FA Cups, until the Piss Can arrived.
We were better than them for all of my, and their, formative years!
It just shows how ingrained the thought of them being top dogs is, in their own tiny minds, and leads to this mythical "United Way" bollocks.
My standard reply is that things go in cycles. They had their turn, now they can fuck off.
