Can it ever be right to boycott your team?
February 24, 2009
There are literally millions of football fans around the world all of which take a keen interest in their team. Many people go and which their team every week and brave the elements in order to do so. But what happens if the team is not winning trophies – or even winning matches?
At any level of football, a winning team is going to generate larger gates than a losing one. This is common sense – people don’t go to watch a game of football if they are pretty sure that there team will lose.
The question is however whether or not there is a fine line between fan loyalty and lying down and letting your club take the mickey out of you. I am going to boycott my club this week as not only is the style of football absolute garbage, the results are even worse. But more than that, nobody at the club seems to give a damn in terms of investment in the team or the club in general.
Is this right? Does this make me a lesser supporter than someone who blindly accepts whatever the club say to them? It’s a difficult one to answer but in my mind, staying away from your club in certain situations can be because you love them so much you have to do it.
What do you think?
