Yes I'm south of the river, but it doesn't stop me going to game, nor does being in Cambridgel; I'm going to the Kiev game even though its a) a weekday b) on telly c) expensive. I'm also joining the travel club because I fancy travelling the country to watch my team play. I was also born and bred in Wood Green, which is less than 6km from Highbury, so your arguement falls flat on its face. Not only that, but the fact you have the cheek to argue that I live too far away to support a team is just ever so slightly hypocritical.
And yes, because you haven't been to a game, it does make your voice less valid.

DanMushMan who has the diving Jeffers on his team outwits ZJuwelH as I requested. ZJuwelH, please, continue the argument.

But why is my voice less valid because I've never been to a game? Should someone who advocates disabled parking be ignored for being able-bodied?

My argument is actually showing your hypocrisy not mine. I always watch European games as a neutral (where it doesn't concern United) so good luck.

the fact that you won't get up out your arm chair and actually go to a game, shows you're not a supporter. You can watch as much as you like on the telly, but it doesn't make you a proper fan, just an armchair supporter. Also, it doesn't come anywhere near the atmosphere at a football ground. It's not even like tickets are that hard to get for OT.

What I've conveniently highlighted in bold for you means you seem to contradict yourself. That's how people defeat their own arguments. Just a thought.

Actually tickets are that hard to get. Consider that I'm still in sixth form with £20 a week from my folks (and don't tell me to get a job, I care too much for my studies), and my tight-ass dad won't consider funding my support. I'm well aware of the atmosphere difference, but I still consider myself to be a 100% Devil from my armchair, and one day I will go to OT.

ok, thats why most people try to support a team which they are actually close to! And I meant that you can't claim to be a proper supporter, an armchair supporter at best.

I'm close to United. In the way that matters.

Why do I not support Cambridge, because unlike you I've been an Arsenal fan since I was 5, and I'm not going to change alleigance, I actually love my team. Plus, Cambridge is on the same train line as Finsbury Park, which is why I can go to games.

no you're not close in the way that matters, real fans are at the games supporting the team, where you can actually make a difference.

Real fans are there however they choose to be, so long as they are giving their undying support, as I do every game. I love my team too, don't assume I don't due to the fact that I can't go.

Ah but technically your local team is not Arsenal while you're at Cambridge. If the distance argument can be used against me then it can be used against you.

no, I wasn't using the 'local' team arguement. Unlike you, who are seeming to suggest that you can just change your alliegance to a club every 6 months, I will never leave Arsenal. Unlike you, I feel there is something called loyalty. Its not my local team whilst I'm at home, but it was the first team I supported, I was born local, and the distance isn't prohibitive to my attendance. Incidently, why did you not go to any away game in London, somewhere like Selhurt Park always had tickets available, which weren't very much at all.

When do Man United play at Selhurst Park nowadays? Besides, I did mention time was a constraint. Usually I have a more pressing commitment when United come to town the five times a season they do.
This is fun!!!
