Today I feel sorry for..... (Manchester United 4 - Wigan 0
There are so many things to feel sorry about this Carling Cup final.
Wigan - They didn't deserve this scoreline. It was wicked and cruel. Wigan is a truly honest team, and genuinely one of the good guys and underdogs everyone loves to root for. I really feel sorry that they have to be at the end of a thrashing in what is the biggest moment in their short club history.
Paul Jewell - This is his fourth consecutive 4-0 loss as a manager facing United. In fact in his short managerial career, he's only faced United 4 times. Twice with Bradford and twice this season with Wigan and it all ended the same way.
Alan Smith - Still feel sorry for the injury he sustained last week. Nice gesture by the United players to win this one for him. And really feel sorry that he has a nickname called Smudge. What kind of weak lame ass nickname is that?
Rooney - Feel sorry that he couldn't be the first guy to get a hat-trick in a league cup final.
Ronaldo - I've already stopped feeling angry with him. Now I just feel sorry for him and all that wasted talent. For a moment in the build up to the second goal, I really thought he had finally grown up. Unfortunately that illusion become blurred when he stupidly took off his shirt after scoring the third goal and getting a yellow. And shattering of the illusion was complete when moments later he decided to showboat when we were 4-0 up, rubbing salt into the Wigan players. It was absolutely disgusting and ungentlemanly behaviour. Kudos to Giggs and JOS for giving him a good talking to, but I doubt he'd ever grow up.
Manchester United - I truly feel sorry for my beloved club. There was a point in time where this competition meant nothing and the lowest of priority. In fact there was a time this competition was actually an irritation to our schedule. We've always used this competition to blood our young guns. It's sad that in today's Manchester United, the Worthless Cup has become so instrumental to keep club morale high and more importantly to keep Ferguson's job.
