His hip was fucked, we were well and truly had over by Leeds on that one, and given we probably lost David Bernstein as a result of KK’s obsession with signing him, he likely had a bigger impact on the club than maybe some realise.
Personally, I can’t stand him too, but not for those reasons, one day when my girls were little, about 9 and 11 , we were stuck in a traffic jam on the M60 near Sale water park, and who pops up beside us, yes Robbie Fowler, the girls started waving and shouting “Hiya Robbie”, he just looks over, sneers at them, and winds his window up”, what a twat.
Possibly fits in with my reason tbh - as he didn't give a fuck about the club or our fans. He never looked like he wanted to be at City. Twat.
The only possible excuse I can give him is that he knew he was stealing a living from us, was a shadow of what he used to be and felt guilty about it. Doubt it though, everyone was willing him to succeed and he should at least have had time for the fans because of that.
