There are people who will go to the match and be moaning 10 minutes in, even if we're beating Barcelona 49-0 at that point.
The truth is, a small section of the fanbase pay their money to treat the matchday experience as a pressure valve to release a weeks worth of pent up anger that has formed in their personal lives.
I'm probably with the majority, in that I can often see things aren't ideal on the pitch, but I'm happy enough just leaving the moaning as something to discuss over a pint. The fact is that it's nothing more than a chance to mock millionaires who can be a bit shit at football.
What I don't understand, are the people who take their whining to an almost pathological level. In the stands, at work, on the forums - there they are, faces redder than my arsehole on a Sunday morning, spitting vitriol about these millionaires like it's the end of the fucking world. It's not, it's a game of football, lads.
So, my theory is that these people have very shit lives beyond the football. That's fine, be shit, have an overbearing wife, have a turgid job. But don't get upset when people on forums refuse to get so worked up that they are on the verge of a heart attack. Calm down - if you are such a hardcore supporter of the club, act like one. Support them. As you would say, you'll be there regardless so just accept that times will be hard and try and enjoy yourselves. Otherwise, you sound like complete fucking retards.
