That same argument was espoused by you when defining a live supporter as opposed to an armchair fan. And I'm really not interested in your sexual proclivities or what you do in the shelter of Bargain Booze. You truly are a fisher among men.

I love it when people come on here using fancy words they looked up on Google.

I'm sticking with them because I've supported them ( and that means actually going to most  home games) for half a century - and nothing rational or irrational will stop me now.
Loyalty is a higher virtue and most real supporters ( which includes everybody on Nuts with a few vocal exceptions) share it with me
We're shit and we know it- but we're sticking to it.

I think in 1,000 years or whatever, they will laugh at how people used to give a shit about football let alone feel some moral obligation to stand by and put money into a chosen team as though it were a hospital or a school or something else that actually serves an important purpose.

I'm as guilty as anyone for letting Bolton piss me off, but it's all part of the fun really. It's ridiculous how dramatic people are in this country where football's concerned, when you put it into perspective.

I mean fair enough to anyone that's "sticking with the club through thick and thin" and all that but it's eleven blokes kicking a ball around that's at stake at the end of the day. Not a sick child, the livelihoods of a mass amount of people, an entire community not being destroyed by natural disaster, etc.

This isn't about success or failure - it's about being treated like idiots. BWFC don't give a shit about the fans. Where are the official (truthful) statements from the club?

At what point does loyalty become stupidity.

Rammy - I don't know if you have a daughter but let's say you do and one day, after 10 years of marriage, she comes to you and says her husband has been cheating on her. Do you tell her to stay loyal and ignore his wandering penis, or divorce him and find a chap who will treat her well?

You're still choosing to give your cash to an institution that hates you.

In years to come your family will mock you.

Be careful what you wish for....a maxim that could be relevant to this entire thread.

If you supported someone else this wouldn't have happened.

All I care about next season is that we're on a stable footing, no matter what division we're in, and we can start to enjoy the football again. I just hope we have a few youth players come through to make it interesting for us.

I'm hoping that's not too much to ask for.
