Dross... but we’ll be back
Are we there yet? Up and down the Premier League, fans are wishing the last 90 minutes fly by on the road to nowhere. A season to forget, already forgotten. Has there ever been a top-flight campaign that left fewer people satisfied? Might we have slipped into English football’s Age of Disillusionment?
Even the Manchester City faithful, if their side wins it as they surely must, will come down from tomorrow’s high quicker than anyone before them. Sure, for the legions that packed Maine Road when they endured Division Two shame, there will be emotion. But they will not recognise tomorrow from their dreams.
