Hans Christian Andersen writes for you

A vain bunch of know-all supporters who care for nothing but message board kudos and twitter followers hire two Barclay Boys who are really swindlers who promise a player the finest, Aviva No 5 shirt from a fabric invisible to anyone who thinks he is unfit for his position or "just hopelessly stupid".

The know-all supporters cannot see the talent themselves, but pretend that they can for fear of appearing unworthy; and their message board and twitter acolytes do the same.

When the supporters think the player is ready to play, they mime applauding him and the know-all supporters then march in procession before the City fans, who feel compelled play along with the pretence.

Suddenly, a child in the community infill, too young to understand the football reasons for keeping up the pretence, blurts out that the player is actually a lazy s**t and the cry is taken up by others.

The know-all supporters cringe, suspecting the assertion is true, but in an act of bravado support him proudly and continue the procession.

?He?s rubbish?, the community infill crowd cry, and suddenly everyone knows they have been fooled by the know-all supporters.

And one final unrelated point for you all if didn?t realise. He?s back. He?s been back for a while. But none of you realised. But of course no-one ever leaves here. Ever. It?s the way of the Wrath.
