I'm not sure if my communication skills are at fault, or if it's something else, but I thought my points were simple enough :
1. the article is boring as, adds nothing to any debate, and is simply a recapitulation of what has existed on social media for ages, notwithstanding any recent additions from tyre kickers like Cornes. If people find this to be great writing, good on 'em.
2. Using love of the club as a justification and legitimation for lashing out is IMO a problem. To wit, recent posts on here regarding low life behavior at the recent Lions game. These offenders would also claim that they love the club, and their love made them do it, or that the club failing to meet their expectations made them do it. And my statement that this is same argument used by domestic violence offenders (i,e she made me do it) is completely correct. I'm not suggesting one leads to the other. I'm not suggesting the gravity is the same, but the line of argument most certainly is.
