Bob Ballard had the Blackburn goal replay on a sports news and the ex Rag Gray could not contain himself with a loud YES when they scored.
Bearing in mind he appears to be in some media quarters a top analyst. LOL.
I think it's time we cut all the plastics a bit of slack.
think about it, they latch on to something that has fuck all to do with them, their family or their surroundings. just so they can be a "winner". starting in 1992 they have seen nothing but success, yes by benefitting from bias, cheating etc but they don't see that, too deluded and up their own arse. as long as they can mock the local kid who supports the local team they don't care. they follow the kings of old Trafford Manchester (insert map here)the worlds greatest ever team, even better that they only use players directly from the academy.
then it starts going tits up, worse still it's the other team from Manchester (refer back to map)that's now destroying them every time we take to the field of play. nobody wants to play there, nobody will sign, the manager is a pub team manager and in short it's over.
so what do the poor things do? can't go back and support the local side, the local kid will rip them a new one. could cancel sky I suppose. the bed spread needed changing anyway as does the wallpaper so the posters can come down. in fact if they really try they could erase all evidence of ever being a glory hunter in the first place.
that though wont change the person that made them weak in the first place, so weak that they follow the sheep, the need to belong to something that was never theirs in the first place, they knew that but desperation set in so they went with the flow.
I truly pity them.
I am sat here at 8-19 am (local time) and though my side played shit yesterday I have a warm glow when I think of my players, my club and my future watching Manchester city. MY club.
