Itâs almost as if the board, the manager and the players have been issued with a directive for the season:
âEmbarrass the club and infuriate the supporters as much as you can.â
Spot on.
The deafening roar when that goal went in was the loudest I have ever heard in a football stadium. It still sends shivers up and down my spine just thinking about it.
If ever there was a player that symbolised this clubâs decline into turgid mediocrity, it would be him.
A lazy, disinterested waste of space and money who canât defend, canât attack and, worst of all, canât be arsed.
The clubâs recent logic-defying, dream-fulfilling trophy triumphs inevitably raised future expectations because the foundations were firmly in place for a period of sustained success.
âEntitlementâ is just a recently introduced buzzword into the footballing lexicon that the media and fans of other clubs use to try to insult or belittle supporters of a club that has fallen on hard times and are (inevitably) angry and disappointed at how that has come to pass.
The sharp decline of Leicester City is a case of mismanagement and misplaced loyalty on an embarrassingly grotesque scale that has left many fans, like myself, so numb with despondency at the way the club is now run that we no longer take up our season ticket seats because the experience is so overwhelmingly negative that it borders on the masochistic.
I have followed the club for over 50 years and I have never felt so detached from it that I didnât want to attend a game that I have already paid to watch.
I feel more âp***** offâ than âentitledâ.
PSG are obviously a much better team than Villa but selecting Rashford instead of Watkins was a shocking decision from Emery. He doesnât have the intelligence or the technique to hold the ball up and bring others into play. The only time he hasnât lost the ball in attack, Villa scored.
My sense of justice - if not rationale - demands that he (unlike that sabotaging weasel Rodgers) has the responsibility for relegation officially stamped on his CV.
You think it canât get any worse⊠yet it does. Week after week. There has to be some accountability. But nothing happens. He even picks the same (losing) team again!
This club is run like a corporate circus where the only performers are clowns. On the board. On the bench. On the field.
And there are still some weirdly misguided fans happy to clap them into the abyss (presumably on the basis that they are âproperâ or âloyalâ supporters).
You reap what you sow. Shame on all of them.
Whatever happened to questions ending in question marks? Gone the way of apostrophes, I guess.đŹ
In answer to the question, it wonât stop until Top gets the message from the whole fan base (or the vast majority) that his shift is well and truly over.
We almost need a Ceausescu on the balcony moment for him to realise that we want him and his cronies gone. Not sure how that revolutionary turning of the tide can be recreated though.
My own - and only - way to protest is to stop filling my season ticket seat. Which I (and my son next to me) have done for the last two matches and will be doing for the foreseeableâŠ
Boycotted Brentford and Man Utd because of the kick off times - and am glad I did so given the wretched performances. Will skip Newcastle for the same reason.
Not sure about Liverpool but probably worth rocking up for the last two as I see them as post-relegation Championship warm up games - and, you never know, we might actually score a goal against Southampton and Ipswich.
