No-one is leaving their seat
Could it have been because neither Manchester nor London is that close to Cardiff? Actually, there was one so-described "idiot" who left his seat and wandered onto the pitch. But the commentators left us in the dark as to which team's colours he favoured.
United were quicker, sharper but largely pedestrian, in keeping with their form of this season. Then there was
Ronaldo. "
Ronaldo reminds you of what this game is capable of, how naked skill can lift matches and their spectators."
For all that,
"Bermondsey was, for 90 minutes at least, the centre of the sporting universe."
So, that's it for another year, bar the play-off finals, Euro 2004 and the musical chairs participated in by managers, players and the media alike.
So now we can get back to reality, or the fiction that is reality TV. Everyone seems to want a quick fix and to get paid for it; I want to be a
Bollywood film star or the
President of the USA. Gizza job. I can do that.
Not all make it, so spare a crocodile tear for
the also-rans.
What is your vote worth?
