I hate what football does to me

I often write in neutrality, but there’s no hiding what club I support. And thus, no hiding from the amount of abuse I get after that recent romping last Saturday. I don’t wanna even mention the score – how absurd it is that two numbers and a dash could become such a powerful insult.

On a neutral standpoint it’s great for the league. La Liga looked to be the more exciting title chase until the last round of fixtures of the Premier League. There’s every chance United will lose their game in hand to make it a proper 3-horse race.

What is next for United? A backlash would sure be imminent, but I don’t think it will ever be the same. It’s just not Manchester United, to concede four goals at home. Only 4 points taken from 15 against the rest of the big four English teams marks an astonishing rate of failure. I think the team will crumble unlike the usual that we have seen them at this point of the season. They’ll probably lose the FA Cup final to Chelsea, get drawn against Barca in the CL quarters this week which spells revenge, so that means 2 out of 5 this season. Not that bad. But definitely not even acceptable.

Why the negativity? Because the United fans get hurt the most when the team loses like that. I’d rather get kicked in the balls than get hurled abuse from “long-suffering” Liverpool fans, even though I’ve rarely instigated any sort of bragging (spare the random Glory Glory chant aimed at nobody in particular). The whole United team and especially the crap Vidic need to pay for this. Sir Alex please offload that useless Serb and go retire immediately.

    Of course, the last two sentences were only joking. It reflected my extreme side.
