Is that what you think, or what you think you should think

The same accusation gets levelled at the Reds groundcrews; I've known loads of them and they are no such thing IMHO they are just a bunch of guys doing their job. They do what is asked of them to sell the image around the world thats all. But, it seems that they are all on to a loser and it doesn't matter how they behave someone will sneer at them and label them egotistical, its almost de-rigueur to do so.
Odd isn't it? We champion lifes halfwits, the Jade Goodys of the world and yet deride those who are genuinely the best in their field. Unless of course they are multi-million pound footballers, or genuine egomaniacs from Stoke-on-Trent in which case them beome national heroes
