Goodbye Europa - I never loved you

So you dumped me and last night I was upset about it.

Well in the cold light of day I’m not too bothered, I’m over you, because it was never love, it was just a holiday fling, a fumble on a foreign beach, a shag under the pier - and now its over.

Yes the sex was cool at first but even that had become a plod, all faffing about and no end product, and let’s face it, we were going nowhere, it was obvious from our trips away.

But I carried on because it was easy, going through the motions, even though you pissed me about and messed up my weekends, I thought it might sort itself out.

But Europa, I never loved you.

Not like the FA Cup.

Even though she is old and past it, I still dream of me and her in an old folks home together one day.

But not you.

You were an obsession, something to lust after, but the reality was unlovable.

Sure we had some fun, but you are high maintenance - and you have annoying habits.

Why do we have to go out at five past the hour? Why only Thursdays?

I had to build my whole week around you - and your armpits are hairy, you leave the fridge open, and you put the toilet roll on the wrong way.

So on reflection I won’t miss you.

I’m not saying I liked being dumped, and I’m sorry for kicking off last night when you told me, but I think it will do me good in the long run - it’s for the best…

Thanks for our time together, I won’t forget it - but I’m not going to kid myself that I ever loved you.

goodbye.

I’m probably more cross now than I was last night. I was very blasé about the whole thing, we should have qualified top and we had two games to definitely secure qualification. I just don’t understand why we have turned into a team who can’t score or even looks like we’re going to score. It’s really poor.

oh well, fuck it. I’m over it as well now. I just needed to get that off my chest.

The only positive I can see is that we’ll look to play our best team every game now, which may get us some continuity and form.

I’m still fuming, we worked so hard to get there and then pay homage every game to the Premiership by picking a weaker team, I coud have understood if we went through but guess what we didn’t and we as per fucked it up, the media hype of us giving youth a chance as well does my tits in as whats the point is we fucking sell them, where does that money go? We’re being royally fucked up the arse here.

I’m going to set that to music…

…just as soon as I become Johnny Marr.

As Bear would say, srs question, no trolls pls:

How would everyone feel about this season if things remained exactly as they are (i.e. out of Europe, mid-table PL) but we won the League Cup, or whatever they call it now?

His voice would remain monotone throughout.

I’d take that but that aint going to happen with this clown in charge, Arsenal were poor very poor and Liverpool will play with 80% full strength side and Klopp will take it seriously, they’ll beat us convincingly the way things stand, add tensions in January and the transfer window we’re fucked, he’s fucked as well, any feelings of patience went last night, the man is a clown.

That’d be a successful season, on balance. The unfortunate thing is that the League Cup is probably all we have to play for, unless we go on an equally good FA Cup run.

yep, I’d take mid table and league cup. I’d even take mid table and another goal before the end of the season.

You’re not one for tempering your opinions are you Barry?

Why? What a positively mundane action, I want more and I want more honesty, the tried and tested

“We’re ready to bounce back”

“The fans deserve better”

“We’re in this together”

“The lads in training were great”

“Its coming together”

Shit has been trotted out to fans who lap it up for a generation, fuck that be honest and say it was shite.

I fucking loved Milan for the experience and glad I went, but the game of football is all about winning. We failed to score in 3 of 6 games and only won twice. Not good enough on the pitch, but our fans did us proud.

Our fans didn’t do us proud last night.
