ITT: Poster who doesn’t want to waste emotion returns with emotional buzzfeed essay insulting fans
- Thread starter Raees
- Start date
I doubt you have any emotions left after the OP.
You need to relax for your own good. You are massively overthinking things.
We should be encouraging people likening Mourinho to hitler? This is the most stupid post ever..
Indeed
Exactly.
The OP just screams Glory Hunter, while trying to justify being a glory hunter by trying to claim the moral high ground.
I completely understand the points of the thread and agree with the majority of them.
But I cannot agree with refusing to support your club while such and such. If you arent willing to support your club in bad times you arent a supporter in my opinion, just a follower of the club or a fairweather supporter.

So people who don't want Jose fired are Trump supporting facists.
Jose is equivalent to Trump and/or Hitler.
Basically, this is a long winded insult to anyone whose opinion does not conform to the OP's. It's psuedo-intellectual horseshite. Well done OP for coming across as a close-minded, jingoistic, morally superior knob.

Excellent post. Sums up the thinking behind taking such a long sabbatical (Which I wasn't really aware of) and coming back all guns and blazing.
What a load of diabolical shit
Don't know much about Bluemoon but speaking from first-hand experience on RAWK- the post is right up their alley. The overtly emotional, melodramatic, poetic essays are welcomed. RAWK is not going to laugh at Raees, they are going to embrace him. He just might get an honorary membership - the next Johnnowhite!
WTF is this ?
Glory hunter
Simplistic way of trying to paint anyone who is unsupportive of Jose’s project as a ‘fair-weather’ fan.
Why no boycott under Moyes or LVG where the football was as bad or where the results were actually more terrible?
The difference is that those two managers were incompetent but they weren’t abusing their position of responsibility. The playing style they both utilised whilst here wasn’t strictly in line with our values etc but off the pitch they didn’t disgrace the club or actively seek to create divides within the club (not to the same extent). End of the day the manager in many ways becomes the personification of the club especially a club like this where we give managers a huge say on the actions of the club.
Most managers stick to football stuff and don’t really dabble in the media and play politics - Jose does that. Fans from other clubs will tell you that Jose has previous in doing so, which makes him unique. See @carvajal post on his time at Madrid where he had fans turning on each other.
That’s why it isn’t a normal situation of just sit tight, keep supporting the club and hoping results come in and things turn around. He’s poison and I cannot actively support the club getting results - when each result keeps him in longer but the club becomes more and more of a laughing stock with his antics and players who have the potential to be great players here end up walking away. I don’t see how that is being a good supporter.
Being an England fan for example, we are used to years of failure and we’ve had years of incompetence pre the recent World Cup campaign. No need to boycott though, as everyone in the role has tried their best and even though the football has been shite, still never missed a game or stopped supporting. I’m not the one here who is fussed about results or ‘winning’. Yes winning is nice and a bonus, but ultimately you support a club because something about it connects with you whether it’s because it’s your local club, your dad supported them etc. When someone is abusing the very thing you care about (and I feel post Sevilla - Jose has especially during pre season almost tried to tank it with some of his comments and seems more concerned about the preservation of his legacy than the well-being of the club) how can I justify supporting that any longer.

Not sure if a drunk poster or a footballist feminist antimourinhoist.

I feel the same. I agree with a lot of the points made by @Raees but not supporting the club while Jose is manager exclusively because Jose is manager is contradictory to some of his original arguments.
It's easier to do so when he hasn't won a league like he did with Real.
I kinda understand why someone would post something like this considering the state of the club right now. I know a guy who used to work at Burger King nearby my house, a proper ManUnited fan that one. He really loves the club to the point where after the game against Tottenham, the guy got so depressed that He lost not only his job but also managed to lose his dog and lawnmowers. When his neighbor asked him why didn't He eat and what did He want for lunch, He quietly whispered "Louie van gaal's army" nobody knew what He meant until I came and gave him a pack of biscuits.
Thanks for that, I stopped reading after the first one
tl;dr - Jose and the fans' toxic masculinity is ruining this club and this is why we cannot reelect Donald Trump in 2020.
(Or at least that's what I got from it. If that's not what the OP actually says, same difference.)

It is a genuinely awful post, full of self aggrandizement.
The club you want, you need is gone and will never be again. We'd need to get rid of Ed Woodward, sack three quarters of the squad and reset the entire footballing structure for this to happen. It simply won't, you can't snap your fingers and erase 20 years of foundations and have a perfectly new club there ready to go that is tailor made to your desires. It is as simple as that, the sooner you understand that modern football is a bunch of overpaid feckbaloons running around kicking a parcel of breeze around a patch of grass with absolutely no consequences to how the fans feel about results, the sooner you're going to realize you just don't like what football is anymore.
But it is nowt to do with United as a club, they simply plug into the structure of the machinery.
But this sticks out.

More virtue-signalling. You failed to adequately respond to the post you quoted. As previously stated by @Brwned, you boycotting the club in no way prevents it from “crumbling”, to use his phrasing. What is your response to that statement? Furthermore, why not go quietly into the night with these ideals, rather than broadcast them across the forum? Are you attempting to enlist support, or are you instead publicly presenting yourself as a martyr, and in doing so, rather ironically becoming something of the ‘top red’ you so evidently despise?
I would like to have seen you in the 90's, preaching this to these masculine football fans faces. You would get smacked upside the head real quick.
Say my name one more time and I appear in your bedroom tonight.
This is the guy who claims he used to be a pro level manager at a club in England. Don't remember if it was PL level or championship. He also starts name dropping who he has been discussing with on the caf to validate his argument.
Didn't you guys now he's a big deal, before criticising him?
I imagine I could find similar posts from the Moyes era too. Just stop mate, you are just upset that we aren't winning the league every season playing great football and you're trying to justify it with some moral nonsense. The weird thing is that no one is asking you to stay. Go ahead, boycott away.
Nope. You're the one categorising groups of fans into different moral realms, and placing yourself in the most laudable one. I'm just talking about you. If you want to categorise me into your weird groups, try this one:
It was in September 2016. My opinion on that hasn't changed at all. Whether you're supportive or unsupportive of Mourinho doesn't really matter to me. Or the club. The only place it matters is in your own head. That was really my only point. You're making a grandiose point about a comically small thing.
We all like to tell ourselves stories but you've painted a particularly rich tapestry and decided to announce it in the most dramatic fashion. Within that tapestry the only nugget of truth was that you follow the club for entertainment. That's what you care about. That's what you're upset about. If it wasn't about entertainment you would support another club which has far more cultural, moral and geographic relevance to you. It's probably better for your mental health if you just embrace that.
The problem is some think they're more important than they actually are. Someone stopping supporting the club or not will mean nothing in the long run. No one really care. Your support of the club is something dependent on you, and it only interests you. Neither the club, the board, the players, the manager or the fans will care a little bit if you didn't watch the games. They don't even know you to start with.
If I'm deciding to boycott the club, I'll do it without talkng and leave, because no one really care about that beside me, why tell everyone then as if mine boycotting the club is a disaster that will force the club to change its routes ?

Not going to get into a debate about the OP. However, there's an attempted to paint those that don't support Mourinho or want him out as lesser fans who aren't supporting the club properly.
And the same is happening those who do.
Maybe I don't see it cause I'm on the other side of the argument but I wouldn't be surprised.
Quelle surprise, they love it.
You don't see it because it's not really a thing, outside of the OP of this thread it's not common.
If you can't support us when we lose, DON'T support us when we win.
Please tell me this was a joke.
I wanted Mourinho to go. But after reading the OP , I hope he stays for a long time
I agree with most parts of the OP, although I seem to have only read the censored version. I‘d even go further and give some supporters another reason to feel offended.
The first dozen replies in threads on the new and improved Caf seem to point out the direction which many posters will happily follow just because it feels nice to belong to a majority.
