For altruistic reasons I don’t want Maidstone; they ‘deserve’ a top six PL side, or to get the manager’s stated dream tie of Wolves away. There’ll be plenty of other smaller/not so small sides in the hat we can beat.
I share your experience, of the only two people I know that buy into that stuff, one a big David Icke advocate, the other into conspiracy stuff by Russell Brand and some American guy, one has a personality disorder and the other mental health issues and is on antipsychotic meds.
