Mourinho's latest rant leads me to one of two conclusions. Firstly, he is suffering a psychological condition which I should be seriously worried about if it was displayed by my nearest and dearest. Egomania, solipsism and paranoia are close relatives and can lead to serious mental consequences.
Or.....his tirades are a cynical attempt to subtly influence referees so that they think subconsciously "Maybe we're all being a bit hard on Utd after all - let's cut them a bit of slack", so things are allowed which wouldn't be for other clubs (just as McEnroe's on-court tantrums were a deliberate ploy to unsettle opponents).
Or maybe both are true.
Or maybe he's just a heap of merde.
Whilst it's true that Mourinho successfully uses these tactics - and has done throughout his career - there's just something that doesn't seem right with him to me. As we know he is a manipulative shite, but he has a look about him... dead in the eyes almost, that makes me think something else is going on behind the scenes at the scum. It all seems to stem back to when they went on that bit of a 'run' after his last big strop about 'unfair' refereeing (yeah, fucking right), before then for Sky, Talkshite, BBC etc, etc it was love-in as usual with Peg... constant replaying of his press conferences – but after that point in time, you hardly heard the fucker's dulcet tones - anywhere... almost as if they'd had instruction not to give him the air time! It was also about that time rumours surfaced that Baconface was taking a more hands-on approach once again, visiting the changing rooms etc.
Personally, I think the level of power the Stretford Mafia have has seriously shook Maureen, and he's not a happy bunny (anyone seen him crack a smile since he took the devil's shilling?)... I seriously see him walking, maybe even before the season's out!
