Agree with most of what you say but the last line. There seems to be a difference of opinion on "criticism". I generally am a positive sort of bloke, for me the glass is always half full (although this can catch you out near closing time!) So my criticism will differ from others - but to say "some people on this list wouldn't sanction criticism no matter how bad the team got" seems to be a little like "awww thats just pc crap" or belittling other's criticism in total.
And a life time supporter? Of course, you don't go changing bleedin teams halfway through your life, I'd have (if it were possible) less respect for a turncoat City supporter who changed to the Red side cos he finally realised he'd been cheated by god and geography! And besides with my bloody big tattoo I'd have to pretend I was a devil worshipper or Belgium supporter -and my sons Duncan, Ryan and daughter Alex? (I won't mention our dog Cantona :). My reaction to some of the criticism is "oh great - so lets sell 10 -20 players every bleedin season and see where that gets us?!" The one comment that always gets me going (like fingernails on a blackboard), is the "not fit to wear the Red shirt". Is it just me or what? I do totally agree with the family comparison - although I do think that the family has faces and personalities - not just a big bland family. And there are newer members of the this family whom I have a hard time seeing leave the nest as well. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 2:30 PM Subject: [Mufc] Re: The Arse and Chants at the match > I count myself as a United supporter for life.
