How can some people sing at the top of their lungs that horrible song, crying their eyes out, claiming to be the greatest fans of the greatest team on earth and at the same time spewing the worst abuse and insults you have ever seen and let’s not forget this is all directed towards WOMEN. You can’t make this shit up.
So Renee skips the press conference…. ok, I get people are not happy and have opinions, and some pundits like Jen Beattie and Shebahn Aherne have expressed their thoughts assertively, kindly and objectively, as you would expect from those two who are among the best to ever do it. That is vastly different than the shit that we see on social media towards the manager and the players.
It will never stop.
The game as we knew it is over.
Gone forever.
The kind, loving and welcoming atmosphere is not more.
The honeymoon period is over, and fans have ruined it.
Mind you, this is not referring to the in person experience for the most part, I’m talking about the online space which has been toxic for a long time. A faceless place where people can hide behind their keyboards or create Tumblrs about people’s private lives and I’m sorry all of this bothers me a lot because I care about those players and former players personally.
I’m just so hurt and disappointed and I’m sure I have contributed in some way with my negativity and I’m very sorry, I hold my hand and beg for forgiveness.
Some of us NEED football to be happy, and others don’t. AWFC can do whatever they want and I will still love them and love my life and love the memories and the trials and tribulations of being a supporter of this damn club. But that love isn’t unconditional in the sense that if it all starts affecting me directly somehow then my priorities need to shift.
I have lived it first hand with my podcast that I had to stop. It can be crippling and I just cannot imagine how the players feel reading so much bullshit.
It’s not the player nor the manager’s fault that some people dislike their own lives.
