Sour Grapes

By: Mario | June 2nd, 2009

As if he didn’t embarrass himself enough with his persistence to change the league format (from 12 to 16 clubs, pretty much at everyone’s dissatisfaction), Igor Stimac did what looked to be an impossible task: made himself look even dumber. As the highest acting HNL official, he gave an interview in which he “exposed” Dinamo’s late run in the league & cup as a clear indication of Dinamo’s favoritism among the infamous men in black (a.k.a. the referees).

Now this is funny for at least to reasons :
1) Stimac actually has the highest rank in this system he now calls corrupted
2) Dinamo has, according to numerous analysis, been the last of the 12 clubs to gain any kind of use due to the refereeing blunders this season.

Now I’m not saying we don’t have our fair share of dirty laundry, quite the opposite, but to hear these accusations after coming from a recognized hoodlum (I’m flattering him) and from a position at which he’s at, that’s just the sourest of grapes.

If failure needs to be justified and blame tossed around, do the world a favor and point the finger somewhere else.
