It's their vanity, their conceitedness, their utter disdain for the rest of the football world that is their downfall. And "Downfall' is a very good description because like the dramatisation of Hitler's demise the rags are doing the precise same thing - ignoring good, sound business advice and plowing on with the scattergun approach they've been using for many a long year.
You have to look at the quality of players they have bought over the years, and the extraordinary amount of money they have spent on them. Then think about the obscene wages they are paying out to those same flops, and look at the football being served to their plastic fans in return - absolutely Godawful tripe that you wouldn't see in non-league games.
There appears to be no enthusiasm from the players, no inclination to carry out ten bob's instructions (if there are any). Creatively they are non-existent, in musical terms we are Mozart and they are a Little Mix tribute band in the rehearsal stages.
Not one single player in their line up yesterday can justify the wage packet they are taking home every week, not one. Lazy, indifferent, apathetic, it is absolutely criminal that they are seemingly beyond criticism. Yet their collective ego is being fed and watered by the painfully insecure media representatives we have in this country, and the more the pretence continues the harder the reality will be to take when it finally dawns on the plastic rags, both here and and in the far east, that they are reading a false narrative from people like Slimey Stone, Mirror, Sun, Daily Mail etc.
Think of THAT banner, the words 'Not in my lifetime,' and the comb-over's 'We will finish above City next season, guaranteed,' and enjoy watching those bastards pressing the self-destruct button...over and over again.
