I love how he thinks that Sunderland and Chievo are the "bottom of the totem pole" in their respective countries. Absolutely clueless. Fair enough Chievo arent a big club, but they have spent a good portion of recent years in the top flight, which classes them well above the vast majority of Serie C clubs and many in Serie B. Obviously this Canadian prick thinks lower league football doesn't exist, maybe its beneath him- arsehole.
But then he's a glory seeking prick who has, as usual, latched onto a successful club and pretends to give a fuck about them. I speak to plastic wankers on an annoyingly regular basis and they all say "its not the fact they win things, i'd support them even if they were in league 2" and all that, but it is always chelsea/ arsenal/ man utd/ real madrid/ inter "fans" saying this. I am yet to meet the one who randomly latched onto Rochdale. Fair enough if you want an "english club" you will go for one you can watch on tele a lot if you're a foreigner, so i can understand them opting for a PL club, but I have infinitely more respect for lads who choose clubs like us and Everton etc ahead of these dickheads who immediately think "I need an English club, will i go for man united or chelsea?" and disregard all others.
People who choose to "support" a successful club despite having no links to the club are generally clueless, self obsessed wankers whose opinion of football deserves to be treated with utter contempt. This sad collection of Finns, Swedes, Canadians etc who have decided to support Inter despite most likely never even having set foot in Milan, much less attended games, seem to be of the same ilk. Mind, I'm sure they enjoy thinking that "their club" is doing well, even though I can guarantee you that when Inter won the CL, none of them felt as good as our actual match attending fans with a genuine link to our club feel at the end of any game which we win, they simply cant engineer or cultivate that feeling and its their loss
Maybe some of the pricks should ditch Inter and actually try supporting a club they can watch that will genuinely value their support. Sweden and Finland have national leagues, go and support a team locally- if they have a good cup run or a big promotion deciding victory, it would easily dwarf any feeling of "elation" following an Inter win
class- you've probably attended more Inter Milan games than about 90% of their forum.
I have to put up with them by the bucket load over here. I can tolerate them as long as they shut the fuck up.
Being a football fan is about the experience and the memories. I have memories of getting a train down from Scotland every fortnight with me dad. Arriving early in Sunderland to walk around Joplings for an hour before making the walk across the bridge with all the other fans. A pie and a bovril and up to our seats we went. A passion passed down, father to son.
I spunked hundreds of pounds the other week to get a flight across for the derby, and get my dad down from Scotland just to be able to relive it again.
There's a mag over here who has kept his season ticket. Still flies accross to get to the odd game a season. Aside from a little banter, I refused to take the piss when they got relegated, because he's a proper football supporter.
These computer geeks from Sweden and Canada can fuck off quite frankly. Gobshite plastic twats.
