Even though they are largely thick, even they must realize that what they are now could just as easily be Fulham or Hull if the arab's dart had just caught a different trajectory.

My brother in law's a Bert and I've always said that to him, when they were in the old 3rd they could flaunt their dedication like the blue badge of courage, "Praise me because I still go every week even though we won't win £#%&! all".they gloried in their masochism watching Paul Dickov and Jeff Whitley playing shit football Since they started winning things all they ever £#%&!ing talk about is other clubs.
Seriously look at any Berts twitter feed and it's full of retweets about how the press keep treating them worse than <insert club name here> and the collected quotes of Karl Heinz Rummenigge abput what a shitpot unhistoried club they are..
The Manchester City columnist in the Evening News actively encourages this shit.
