No idea what PRSOM stands for
Otherwise, agreed. I'm still not sold on Moyes but I'll still turn up at the match and chant 'Every single one of us will stand by David Moyes' for 90 minutes. Why? Because the club have made their position clear; he's on a long term contract, he's just been given 40 million to throw at a player
in January and everything points towards more in the summer.
Even if the club
hadn't made their position clear, what's the alternative? Who would be guaranteed to come in, and would we be starting from square 1 again?
And most pragmatically of all, getting on the team/moyes' back achieves nothing. I back my team because I believe that's what a fan does; they need support now more than ever. Is it coincidence that during our poorest run of form we played better away than at home? I don't think so; the away fans have been magnificent and the home fans have been ambivalent and indifferent.
There's the argument of 'oh I paid for my ticket/shirt/whatever, so I should be able to voice my displeasure'. Tell you what - those people can talk with their feet if they don't like it. Go and support someone else, because the
real fans don't want these toxic arseoles around their club.
And I normally stray away from cringy, elitist terms like 'real fans', but the fact is if you're less enthusiastic about this team because we're not the best in the country anymore then you're just not a real fan in my book.
Being a United fan is a crucial part of who I am; it doesn't define me but it's much a part of me as the fact that I've got a beard or a brother and a sister. It's what I identify myself as what I will
always identify as regardless of how crap United become - it's ideological almost.
I can't really explain it better than that; but I shouldn't need to because every footy fan should understand what I'm banging on about and feel exactly the same about their own team.
