| Why is it? 90% of football fans seem to act like 5 year olds when it comes to footy?

| Re: Why is it? Football's a funny thing.
It's a pure cliche, but if your not a fan, if you're not part of it..You'll never get it. |

| Re: Why is it? Fuck knows man.
Personally I think I've got more things in life to worry about and get worked up about than the football.
Thing that gets me is the bit about folk on any side who talk about "you lot" or whatever but claim to not be in any way into sectarianism. Would potentially be fairly interestin to see some folks patter when they've got a good bevvy in them I think. How the fuck can anyone expect respect from people/to be taken seriously when their chat tars an entire fan body (and that's from ANY side)? It's beyond ridiculous, especially for the folk that seem to see themselves as open-minded. Just smacks of sheer ignorance.
End of the day, folk can be arseholes and a minority do some really horrendous shit. They deserve to be dealt with appropriately.

Forbes makes perfect posts, not the acerbic wit of Joe or Chris, but rofl material all the same.
