Is it me................
......or does the fact that Kieron Dyer has just bought a new £200,000
Ferrari grate with you too? I know most footballers are notoriously thick,
but surely even he must realise that it's gonna wind people up, especially
WH supporters. Talk about sticking two fingers up to the people that have
effectively paid for it.
Jealous? Me? Probably. Or maybe I just don't like having my nose rubbed
in it.
Rant over...........

Yeah, they're notorious for not having a a dictionary at home (pro
footballers, that is) and therefore the terms "understatement" and "being
humble" are not in their vocabulary. On the other hand my motto is "live and
let live" but then you can certainly piss people off by being too flashy.
And I kept thinking that was one of the reasons we got rid of the Baby
Bentley brigade... Hm.

Yeah, grates me a bit too, it's part of the reason the tickets are so
expensive now, to keep them spoilt fuckers in the living we'd all like to be
accustomed to (something like that, but you know what I mean!!)

Be fair, he's probably extremely frustrated at having spent the best part of
his playing career in the treatment room, and spending a few weeks' wages on
a new toy helps take his mind off it. It ain't his fault we ignored his
fitness record and went ahead and signed him, after all ...
