Well said mate. On Munich songs - I'm too young to remember Munich (isn't everyone?) and whilst I'm not a fan of them, I hate how scum live off it. So, there's a certain nihilism and, yes, fun, when the Duncan Edwards song is sung.

We are where we are - yes we should be higher etc but just as Rochdale fans know they will never win the Premier League so do most of our fans - get used to it.Today (match report to follow) was not great but was not that bad either and your comment "We are a poor team in the second division with no chance of promotion and > even less of staying up." is total and utter rubbish.
