Try and go a little bit obscure with this, we've all heard the obvious ones but what are some of the perhaps smaller times you've had to hang your head?
Although this seems so insignificant now:
When Robinho scored that free-kick against us for Man City after it looked like we were certain to get him, my God that hurt at the time!
Painful Chelsea moments

Benitez wearing a red tie on his first game and at home, that was the biggest feck you statement ever
Or just the realisation it wasn't rumours that fatty was going to be our manager

I liked Benitez he did the club no harm and got us through a sticky patch with honours.
The tie incident was crap though.

Blamy he was 40k per week whilst everyone else was on 80k +.

I'm sure all of us at some point have been in a job where we were pulling just as much weight but were being paid half as much as others in the business. We don't delibarely threaten to sabotage the jobs we're doing as a solution. Stupid and delusional statement, deserved no favours from the club after that.

Where do I start
Losing to the $puds in the 67 FA Cup Final, the 6-0 against Rotherham, the 7-0 at Molineaux, 7-2 at Ayresome Park.
The list is endless

JHT,
Really, i would look at it in a more personal way, if you cast your mind back to the time,
Gallas up until this point had become one of our top performers, one can only imagine what he was promised in the way of progression contractually pre Roman, he delivered and was largely key to our 4th place finish/ Champions league placing.
Next up the Roman revolution Big bucks,big players big time, he was side lined and resentment built up for reasons we are not privy to , we do not know 90% of what goes on behind the scenes at the club.
The issue i believe was the player wanted to move on,but was used as a chess piece in the Acole transfer, i think he was owed full respect by the club, not to be used as a chess piece .
When you take into consideration his natural character i do not think its to surprising he reacted to the disrespect he was shown.
So there in i hardly think my statement was stupid and delusional on the contry it strikes me as being rational , lucid and fair,unlike your conclusion.

His statement about scoring deliberate own goals was stupid and delusional, one of those cases where a footballer showed a lack of touch was reality. Nothing delusional about your opinion, I just disagree with it.

Jht, I occurred to me you might say that after i posted.
I feel that he was a senior player who had given everything to the club, playing a lot of the time out of position and deserved to be given complete respect.
He wasn't ,but i do agree his comments did over step, ( were they leaked?)
Never the less this episode didn't devalue what the player had done for the club previously in my view.
A lot of people did kop the needle over it though.
