I often struggle to support the national team because of whatever perceived Villa based bitterness I have in my head at the time, let alone pop on the shirt of a club side in the same division as us. A man wearing the shirt of a team he doesn't support is just shocking, it's waltzing into church in a kippah. There are only three acceptable situations and a couple of these are for me morally ambiguous. You're playing for the team in question - it's okay for example to support Villa but play for Forest. You're on a stag do and you're young and easily fold to peer pressure and it's "bantz". Wearing it is raising an obscene amount of money for a charity that resonates with you on a deeply personal level. As for this poor chap - I worry for him; he has no moral centre, no loyalty to anything, desperately prostituting himself for the faint glow of received celebrity. If you look into his eyes you can see the dignity leaving his body - and what's more, I think you can see that he knows it's wrong. I don't know why he'd do this to himself and I can only hope that he finds some way to recover and find salvation. Hope and forgiveness can only be discovered through a lifetime of worship in B6 and I sincerely hope that he can find a way to commit to the years of atonement ahead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an unmoderated cesspool of hate. I 100% believe that people would send death threats about a football shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 It’s funny, if someone wants to support more than one club, what do I care? Literally 0. However, I absolutely would rip the shit out of you for it. The future of football fans is going to be… interesting to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw my 9 year old nephew at Christmas and he was in a new Leicester shirt. He then told me he supports whatever team Mbappe will play for. Sadly this is the future, it's all about the flashy player and not the actual team anymore. That's why Jack was worth buying for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this is a new thing tbh. Plenty of people are fans of players rather than clubs, and that's always been the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything this availability thing now should be helping villa dad's, your kid is villa and if he wants to glory hunt a bit then the world's his oyster... As long as they are a foreign team... In theory it should be easier, you kid gets a Villa shirt and a psg shirt, they don't have to glory hunt man City - and I think that's a problem man City have in general, glory hunting has changed and they're too late to the party Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I think what everyone is missing is that Jack is his close friend. Don't think any of us can relate unless we know professional footballers who play for clubs that aren't Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partly because he was no longer associated with Villa anymore but yeah, he just screams "influencer/Love Island" BS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is what does a 9 year old know about Mbappe’s intrinsic values as a player? The kids are literally told which players to like because of how they’re marketed on FIFA and baller YouTube’s and so on. The world is ****. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to be similar as a kid - I think a lot of people did? I have an inbuilt “like” of Holland, Ajax, AC Milan and Barcelona due to players I liked (strange selection of Van Basten, Kluivert, Koeman, Ronaldo etc) but was always a Villa fan. My “idols” just played elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no way I would put on another teams shirt. No way! One of my mates in the past brought be a Pittsburgh Steelers mug for my birthday. Don't see him anymore. Brought the mug into work and it's used to store the used tea bags by the kettle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
