Last night I witnessed the team I've followed all my life lose their most important game in years. Regardless of the sport in question, you have to wonder whether the athletes we idolise really could give a fuck about us fans, who pay their ridiculous salaries.

It's difficult to describe the gut wrenching disappointment I feel today.

Try to imagine your girlfriend dumps you, for your best friend, on your birthday, and runs over your dog on her way out.

It's not all doom and gloom though. If I consider this logically then I realise I am very much in the majority of sports fans.
The English Premier League consists of 20 teams. Only one of which will win. That leaves 19 teams (or 95%) who won't win, or they will lose if you prefer.

When Saturday comes I'll still be there, buying overpriced hot-dogs and cheering until I'm hoarse, with 52,191 other 'losers' safe in the knowledge that we are not alone.
