Would you prefer to see:
a) Your
team play the best teams in the country and Europe but only win
somewhere between 5-10 games a season (ideally!), usually in scrappy
circumstances.
b) Your
team win a high percentage of matches, albeit against poor
opposition including some real cannon fodder. This is likely to
include a couple of complete routs, often unexpectedly.
Your looking at the fixture list, would you like to see:
a) Three
species of Geordies plus two lots of Mickey Mouses, loads of
Cockneys.
b) At
least 8 midlands derby’s (including Forest) plus a healthy
splattering of South Yorkshire teams. Very few London clubs, no
Geordies or Scousers.
Would you be embarrassed to have equal status to
Forest:
a) Yes
b) Not
bothered, rather play them and we can still laugh at Leicester
from afar.
What would you take greater pride in:
a) Losing
narrowly to Man U or
Chelsea, walking into work with your head held high, cursing your
luck as colleagues compliment you on a great performance.
b) Tanking
Plymouth 6-0, no one at work noticed the result but you’re still
giggling at Claude Davies's farcical fifth.
You hear the Rams are lining up a striker would you prefer:
a) It’s
Allesandro Del Piero. Italian international, world famous but over
the hill player, massive wages, could be glorious, could bring the
club to its knees.
b) It’s
Liam Dickinson, Stockport's top scorer. If his wages become a problem
we’ll sack a programme seller and a gold rush girl to compensate.
Mostly A’s: It’s the Premiership for
you and no doubt about it. Were you on holiday for the promotion
season or just not into football in those days ?
Mostly B’s: This isn’t I Love 2006 you
know ? Going down so we can come back up ? A yo-yo club, great !
