Footy Fans....


..... It's a great thing to be a supporter of a club, it give you a sense of belonging and identity but it is sometime taken too far and they think the own the club and that they should have the deciding vote if people stay or go. Fans are the emotional support that a team needs to help boost morale and work rate and get the results. If the fans turn against the team, this is hardly supportive. Like how the Juve fans were pelting the team bus with eggs before the game with Catani, which they ended up losing. This thing that the fan now DEMANDS that you must win it says more about the fans than the team. Espeacially in Italy, the negative acts of fans are tolerated too often, sometimes they are even expected to act that way.... and it's sad. Again Juve fans are the culprit, their refusal to listen to the club has lead to Juve being fined again! This must stop but you get the feeling that in some areas it is expected and encouraged.
