That's the thing
It doesn't come as a surprise to see united stuff anywhere nowadays because of global packaging and aspirations aided and abbetted by satellite TV
Many remote and exotic places can always be relied upon to throw up a few local youths sporting replica shirts and at least one bar with satellite to watch every match on One story does stick in the mind though and it was told to me by a city fan who had been travelling around the middle east inthe late 70's/early 80's.He was hitching through the Sanai desert and had been dropped off in the middle of nowhere on a long road with nothing in sight except for the advice that there was a cafe a bit down the road.After a couple of hours walking in the red hot sun with no traffic passing and no sign of civilisation he was starting to get really worried and desparately thirsty.His prayers were answered when after a few hours he arrived at a hut Unfortunately for him when he walked in a massive B/W mural of the 68 final greeted him.The only bar for miles was a united hotspot and the barman insisted on singing the united calypso and praising Bobby Charlton As he said "I'm in the middle of a £#%&!ing desert miles away from home and you @#%&!s are there" Sometimes it's understandable why they are so bitter |
