it's a classic rant, but with a rather flawed analogy. Football fans (and team sports fans in general) can seriously influence a team's performance both on and off the pitch whether or not they attend matches, by buying merchandise and promoting the brand. How can one influence a fictional, scripted and already filmed and edited movie?? A better example would be to say you're a bit supporter of a massive brand like Apple or Microsoft. Doesn't seem nearly as cool but you can influence them in the same way

The players even acknowledge how important we are hence that is why in football the supporter is know as the 12th man. You still don't believe me?

@@TONYCOV881 while I get what you're saying, the phrase "without fans there is no football" is a bit too far. I've been playing football with friends for ages, without any fans. The football was still there :) But *without fans there is no business*, and without business the players can't do it full time and the team can't have the best players. That is similar to the movie analogy presented by David - fans buying the tickets to see the movie, and the merch etc, pay for the movie production - so without fans there is less special effects, less top-level actors, and low chance of sequel (up for discussion whether that is good or bad for some movies). The only difference is perhaps that the fans in a football game can hype the players for better performance, while the movie is shot without fans being present (but then again, there are sitcoms shot in front of live audience, so maybe they have a claim to be part of them?)

14 years later, this makes so much more sense. Captures the Premier league compared to when it was just Division 1, perfectly with the ‘fans’ watching on TV. The Fast Show did a good one when a ‘fan’ turns up all kitted out in one teams paraphernalia, only for them to lose, so takes his shirt off and says he now supports them, who happened to win. For those who don’t know, Liverpool beat Spurs in the European Championship Final, the same competition as the one they won in 2005 against an Italian team called A.C. Milan. Then the year after, they won the league, beating Spurs quite convincingly.

Just emailing this around at work today. I'm hoping they take the hint and not bother me with football talk. I don't hate the sport, I just resent the fact football fans just assume everyone is into it.

I've grown to hate the sport precisely because of the "everyone must be into it" attitude of the fans. And the players. And the TV schedulers.

This just about sums up football in general ... Paying to watch 22 millionaires kick a ball about & pretending to enjoy it so you can be accepted as one of the lads !! 🤪

As an avid football fan, David has a point. But it's a bit of a conundrum. The name of the team is usually too long to comfortably incorporate into every sentence, so it makes sense to shorten it to a pronoun. But 'they' sounds too impersonal. It sounds like it's referring to the other team, and doesn't do justice to all the emotional and time related investment that you've put into the team you support. It's a funny sketch of course, but it nevertheless makes sense to say 'we.' I'd trust people would be aware that fans who call their team 'we' know they didn't really do anything to contribute to the team's result. It's not meant in a literal sense

Very good explanation mate. I say 'we' talking about my team but i certainly dont try to take credit for any of their wins. I know where the line is.

David Mitchell's just jealous that we've won the European Cup five times...

Very good - and I'm one of the people they are taking the mickey out of. I refer to the club I support as 'we'. A football club is a family if you actually go to games. Football fans can affect results by creating atmosphere at games. Those that attend matches have every right to say 'we'. I'm not knocking M&W here, just some of the twonks who have commented here.

Where there is obscene amounts of money, there are no 'clubs', just one massive team that switches around to exploit peoples need to feel part of something. You don't need these twats, support a small team that plays because they like playing and that actually needs fans and the money they bring.

Seinfeld did a bit about how supporting your sports team comes down to supporting their uniforms - basically, it's all about supporting clothes. But it was obviously nowhere near as brilliant as this beautiful rant I made here. 😂

Ahahahahaha! I also reacted to the use of "we" by my friends when i was a child in grammar school. I told them that "they" meaning our team, had won, and not "we" because we were not in the team playing.

listen, we pay good money to watch'em play, we contribute financially, we influence scorelines and activities within the club even as far as getting a amanager fired, if thats not being part of the club and referring to ourselves as one entity, then you lot are deluded..

steven smith Also, pulling the "financial contribution" card is pretty dumb considering the size of the most-supported Football clubs.
