It’s just the matchday specs every team calls the other shit. Though the officiating was pretty bent last night. Smacked of not wanting to ruin the narrative/product
If people can’t express their identity to link with football (provided it harms noone) you might as well do away with union jacks, st George crosses and county flags as they have almost fuck all in relation to what’s on the pitch.

I wouldn’t overplay his love for the club like - he respects the fans, the heritage and potential for sure and has affection but he’ll not martyr himself to be mugged off.
