Barcelona proved their credentials and duely beat Manchester United quite comfortably in yesterday's Champions' League final.
In any sane world, that result would cause the pundits to shut up for a while about the greatness of Manchester United, the Premier Laegue and British football generally but the world of football punditry is far from sane, No doubt we'll be regaled with stories lauding United and telling us that losing 3-1 was a much better result than any other team could have achieved; we'll be told that they were, of course, up against the best team in the world, so we could hardly expect them to win, etc., etc.
At least the football season is almost over though it will begin again all too soon, and the media coverage will hardly be any less as they witter about summer transfers and the prospects for the New Season. God help us.
