50 years supporting City. Supporting. Not following. Last night barely registered.
Only this.horrible but win the league and i won't care a jot.
Couldn't tell whether this was parody or notI honestly and with 100% truthfulness can say that I am not arsed in the slightest. Not even a tiny bit.
This whole charade of a competition is a farce, and always has been. It is peopled by yesterdays men, yesterdays clubs, and is a cartel of, and for, the history clubs, and the acceptable (white) face of ‘new money’.
I won’t lie, seeing the acceptable face of mainstream racism handing over the prized trophy to a club with owners who look like ours, would have had a certain feeling of poetic “fuck you” to it, but even that would never, could never, come remotely close to the feeling of us handing them their arse in a courtroom. THAT was the fight the club could not afford to lose, or there would have been little or no club left to pick the bones out of afterwards.
Last night, and all the other nights in their fancy competition, are a necessary evil the club has to participate in, in order to sign the players we sign who regularly deliver the real prize. Champions of the worlds most prestigious and hardest to win league anywhere in world sport - the premier league.
The aftermath begins at weekend. I have nothing but absolute faith in this manager and this group of players to deliver the real prize. Champions of England and breaker of murderous hearts. Again.
Last night's defeat hurt as much as the cracked front tooth I got from the upward thrust of a lass's pelvic bone at a party long ago.Was shit but not as bad as that time a bird tried to finger me up the hoop mid blowie in The Ritz.
Yeah agreed, last night was spent tossing and turning thinking about ifs buts and maybes.It hurts because it was avoidable in all those games.
Glad we share a birthday, first sign of the Zodiav.He scored that goal on my birthday, too! I think it's the only time I've watched City on my birthday and the Ginger nicked on 99mins!
