I personally couldn’t give a shit about our club being successful. It’s more to me than that.
I remember the days of standing in the park lane as a boy and looking at my dad, hating him as we were losing.
The Football experience is all in the eyes of the beholder. I take more from belonging than I do from success.
I’m probably holding onto football nostalgia that doesn’t exist anymore but I’d sooner have a great day out, watch us loose, and feel part of something special than watch us win. Surrounded by negativity because one of players didn’t turn up or because we’re not happy with the managers tactics.
Maybe it’s just me but I feel that since our relative success we’ve become self entitled and a fan base I don’t like.
West Ham laugh at us, and we’ve become everything we used to laugh at the scum about.
