Top of the pile

Claiming back what's ours I was walking towards kinokuniya yesterday after dinner with my family. Upon reaching the entrance, I saw a boy wearing the new Manchester United jersey. I felt it looked odd, and on closer inspection, I realised why so. There was no golden lion on the sleeve, just a normal blue one. Then all the hurt and disgust came flooding back, before slowly being replaced with righteous anger. This time, we're going to get that golden lion back, and how. Just you pretenders wait.

And so they did, with style and panache, the Manchester United way. 3 years of hurt gone, finally, it happened.
