It's not chicken and egg... BOTH can happen at the same time!
The modern day football crowd EXPECTS to be entertained first and if not, they voice their disapproval...
Consider the old adage of the crowd being the 12th Man...
If that 12th man was an actual PLAYER, giving the 'performance' that some of the spectators give, by just sitting down on the pitch, eating a pizza and taking photos, and only bothering to stand up when the ball comes near him, he'd get DOGS ABUSE from those very same fans who are sitting down, eating their pizza, and only bothering to stand up WHEN the ball hits the net... and then it's only to take their fucking phones out to tell everyone 'theu were there'!
No we can't actually PLAY .... But we can sure as shit play our part!
We're the Brennan Johnson of football fans... We're there and take the glory when the ball needs tapping in... but do fuck all to help get it there!!!!!
