have you forgotten Wonderball?
I remember us singing this at Filbert St at a 0-0 FA Cup tie, and the replay saw a wonder goal from Gio?
We changed the lyrics of Wonderwall but I've forgotten most just remember the odd lines:
All the runs that Kinky makes are winding.....Your my Alan Ball!
The relevance of this is that fans want to believe in their own team, and enjoy their side. Rationality does not come into it. Mourinho is in the end game now because his CEO was stupid enough to make clear his lack of confidence in the media (leaks about transfers and football directors) and now every defeat will trigger a new crisis. We will have interminable sequences of he's got 3 games left to save his season / career and ultimately one such run will end in failure.
But Football osmetimes defies prediction. His supporters are probably reminded (if they are old enough) of Ferguson's crunch game at Forest where it was believed he was one game from the sack and Mark Robins saved him, or Howard Kendall at Everton when they went to Oxford Utd and a back pass set them up for a win and saved his job before they went on to become one of the best sides in Everton's history.
Hope is eternal and long may it be that way. 'It's the hope that kills us'.
Sadly Utd fans will never go through what we went through, but the flip-side of that is they will never the joy after 35 years of interminable despair and false dawns. They'll never be another Man City.

Then go back further for the likes of hansen, St john, etc

Does anyone agree with me that Luke Shaw could win the ballon d' or this year.
Criminal if he doesn't, he should also be a shoe in for X-Factor, BGT, GBBO and Miss World.
And all the runs that gio makes are winding...have you forgotten Wonderball?
