not for nothing but whats the point of knowing about football as just a game?.....take the culture out of it and its fuckin pointless......
Didn't say you should take the culture out of it at all.
I don't have a problem with them talking about being fans, the culture around it and everything like that. And they do say that they don't really talk about football as a game and the 'jargon' around it.
But at the same time, I've heard them contradict themselves before and actually try and talk the game and ideas around it and be really critical of managers and specific tactical things, and frankly they talk nonsense of the highest order. All I'm saying is that if you're going to say that formations and 'jargon' isn't what the point of football is (I have zero problem with anybody saying that by the way) and say that you don't know anything about that and it's dull to talk about it, then don't contradict yourself by trying to talk about it and being really critical of other people's ideas, which is something I've seen them do before.
That's my problem with them. I'm not questioning their knowledge or experience or presenting of the culture of fans and general enjoyment of the things that surround football.
