Just to be really clear - the dream is over for another year. There won’t be a late storm into the feight. No fairytale finals appearance for the boys in yellow and black. We’re just left with that same old feeling. The feeling of demolished hope. That feeling that you’re in an abusive relationship. That the promises of a month ago were just as empty as they have always been. You want to cry but you know that there are bigger things to worry about. You want to run away and hide in the corner. You don’t want to ever watch football again. But you know that you’ll watch next week. This week it was a pathetic start. There’s always something. Next week will be a fade-out, or a mid-game nap. The result is the same, only the details are different.
Embittered. That’s the one thing that all Richmond supporters have in common. We are all embittered.
