I could list many, but tonight I stoop to an all time low on my social barometer of what is a VERY BAD THING as I find myself faced with a decision that I find thoroughly unpalatable.
I'm supporting Manchester United.
It's not really that I want them to win, it's that I don't want Barcelona to.
Just like Meryl Streep in Sophie's choice, neither going is not an option. It will only prolong the inevitability of a firing squad, so I must choose who to lose, and after weighing up the alternatives, with a heavy heart it is Manchester I cling to as Barcelona are dragged off crying for their mothers.
*GOAL FLASH*
Eto for Barca. Bollocks.
It wasn't an easy choice, and I've mentally gone through the pro's and cons of a decision I'm going to have to live with for the rest of my life.
Against Manchester United
- They are Manchester United
- Ronaldo is a slimy, cheating cunt
- Winning two on the bounce will make them so smug
- They are Manchester United
- They've won enough this year already
- They are Manchester United
- They are not Barcelona
- They are an English team
- They are not a Spanish team
- I've got the teeniest amount of respect for Giggs, who maybe deserves it before he retires
- I hate Puyol more than Ronaldo (he fucked up a potentially winning World Cup fantasy team for me, and I have never forgiven him. And he has shit hair.
- Some of my friends are real Man Utd fans (ie never been there), and the philanthropist in me wouldn't begrudge them a little bit of pleasure.
For now, I think I'd better go and get myself a stiff drink. It might make it a bit easier to cope with what I'm doing with a bit of dutch courage and beer goggles.
But when I wake up tomorrow, all bleary eyed and unsure of what I got up to the night before, I'll be able to look back on this blog, and all the shame will come flooding back.
Am I getting into bed with a stunner, or a munter?
Only time will tell.
Whisper it proud ....Come on Man U.......
