Thing that the "supporters" of the big six don't get is that if they only played each other it would soon get boring. One of them would be bottom of their mini-league and probably every season, unless promotion and relegation was still allowed, in which case one of them wouldn't be big six anymore, and probably more, as time went by. Oh, and Leicester would never, ever happen again would it? Not that it's likely to anyway. Also a lot of the so called fans support whoever is top of the league at the time. Wasn't hard to spot the tourists on the Tube coming back to Central Larndan either. Half & half scarves- really?
I was stood with about half a dozen Belgian's on my row - they'd come to see Depoitre - they claimed. The reaction when Hazard was subbed seemed to say otherwise.![]()
Funniest/stupidest moment of the match, off the pitch. 3 jobsworths in Fluorescent Orange tops removed a 'Cheslki fan' from the front row of the next section over for trying to generate some atmosphere in the library that was otherwise their 2/3rds of The Shed end. Persistent standing maybe? We didn't sit down at half-time let alone during the match. OK he was 6'19" tall but cut the lad some slack. He was probably visiting from somewhere else in Europe for the first time too.
Premier League is already boring, it feels soul less. The Premier League is mainly aimed at armchair fans, foreigners and fans in this country who can afford to go. Football used to be affordable but ever since the Premier League has come along it's mainly for the middle classes and the upper classes who have the ££££££ to spend, look at Chelsea without money they would be finishing 7th or 8th in the League and that goes for a few other clubs in the Premier League too. Can't see a Leicester scenario happening again the Premier League wouldn't allow it. Anybody who buys or wears a half & half scarf should be banned from going to football, I've noticed that half & half shirts could be a thing in the future and that would be just dreadful.
Another thing which annoys me about Premier League fans (mainly the big 6) there fans go on about a crisis or that they are depressed etc with the football or results, these people don't know what a crisis is, come back to me when you've seen your team have back to back relegations and gone out the football league altogether. Now that's a crisis!!!
Also vloggers piss me off too but that's football in general. You go to games and you see people with cameras, phones, iPads taking selfies or filming themselves react to goals, now there is nothing wrong with taking pics of the game or videoing bits of the match but if you are a fan how can you experience what is going on and how can you celebrate and go mental when your team has scored a last minute winner, you can't can you? Well you could but you'd have to drop the camera. I remember when we won L2 in 2013/14 season and we played Fleetwood at home last game of the season and we needed to beat them to win the league and a woman and her family were sat a row in front and the way she was talking it was like it was her first ever time at a football match and she spent most of the game talking selfies, texting and uploading them to social media, she didn't really care about watching the game at all and I found it all weird and I thought you've took up a seat, not bothered to even watch the game or show an interest when a real fan who actually supports the club has probably missed out witnessing it.
