If these charges are found to be unfounded and the case is dropped leading to MCFC being cleared and exonerated of any wrongdoing; does anyone really believe that the British media will except that outcome gracefully?
They'll be sharpening their knives and plotting a new narrative based on cover ups and payoffs.
That's an absolute certainty.
In theory, assuming there is a shred of honour within the Fleet St ratpack, it should be job done. Realistically, in this day and age, they will gird their collective loins and simply engage a different strategy, an updated narrative they can continue to peddle for views and clicks, ad infinitum.
We are a cash cow for these blood sucking bottom feeders.
I liken them to the South American drug cartels. Always working on new ways to conceal the shipments. Customs discover the drugs concealed in the AC units? The drugs concealed in the Holy Jesus statues get through. The only difference is no-ones getting arrested on Fleet St and no-ones denying access at the border.
Rags fanbase used to revel in their ABU status. Millwall revelled in "no-one likes us but we don't care".
It ain't gonna change boys and girls, so best get used to it. Turn it on its head. Engage our famous self-deprecating sense of humour. A fire can't burn without oxygen.
Do you really give a flying fuck about Christian the Gooners opinion regarding the finances of our club? Are the ramblings of Gerry, sat in his piss stained fat pants in Maghull, going to affect your day? Does Harris or Delooney enter your kids heads when they're staring, starry eyed, at FIVE gleaming trophies at The Etihad?
Console yourself, however tiresome this gets, however draining it is, that its doing far worse to our detractors. They have no escape. Its death from a thousand cuts. Rent free. Day in day out. Scrambling to find their daily "anti-Citeh" fix. Checking in with their WhatsApp group of like minded nutters, to find the latest stick to beat us. Commenting daily on HYS, monitoring the Daily Nazi comments for pro-City thumbs down opportunities. Having to agree with Simon fucking Jordan, whilst muttering manically, rocking silently, backwards and forwards, in the corner of your flea-ridden flat in downtown Toxteth.
So, it could be worse.
You could be them.
Because it's so shit being us.
Up the fucking Blues.
