It was an outrage and an embarrassment for the club. In what world do you think they would not focus on it?
BBC has the bus as the top story, above the match itself, predictably.
The only outrage and embarrassment here is that some Reds are taking their cue on how and what to think from the BBC and the Mail. Football is war by other means. It exists only to forge bonds of fraternity between us in our quest to reshape the world. When I want an evening of light entertainment, I go to the opera. When I want to stand among comrades and prepare to smash the fucking Tories -- or in this case, their torture-loving counter-revolutionary friends in Abu Dhabi who are responsible for the misery of millions -- I go and see my mighty Reds, who are the aesthetic representation of our principles, and mascots in our war. Forget what you've heard -- opera is low art, mere diversion. Football is high art, capable of transforming peoples, cultures and nations.
Next time those shithouses have the audacity to believe themselves worthy of coming within a mile of our hallowed ground, I want lads inviting Raheem Sterling off their coach so we can shave pound signs into his hair. I want lads adding to Ederson's tattoo collection, inscribing 'Andy Robertson gegenpresses my ma' on his forehead. I want lads pouring litres of curry from John's Supper Bar down the interior of Pep Guardiola's polyester Zara keks. And most of all, I want these to know that the normal rules do not apply to us. We are not an entertainment franchise or a product to be marketed by suits at the Premier League. We are everything they despise and everything they will never be. And if a few generous offerings of ale should mysteriously go amiss and reveal that their coach is as fragile as their temperament, all the better.
What I saw last night was the birth of a new culture, with new myths, new confidence, new courage. If a bit of chipped glass on a coach carrying some no-marks around makes you queasy, wait 'til the next election. You might want to look into that Benidorm timeshare.
