London Broncos • Re: What is a supporter
I suspect there are fewer "supporters" in August than there were last January.
The "official" supporters group were formed as nothing more than a snub to the LBSA, but no sooner had they had their first cult gathering, they were asked to volunteer and to a man woman and child began staring at their shoes. Then when their fuhrer was deposed and scuttled off back to his sweatshop, the vanished as effortlessly as they began, with no thought given to their purpose.
I was never a ST holder. I could never return to a commitment I had adhered to in football that ends up being detrimental to those around me, but I rarely missed games when possible. I helped out whenever asked or when an offer was accepted and I arranged away travel a couple of times. I am now extremely beligrent and critical of the owner, but this wasn't always the case.....but I back up my reasoning with facts and stats.
I consider myself a fan. Monday mornings at 5am I reach for my smart phone and the first page I go to is BBC sport, Rugby League results....I purchased tickets for my daughter and granddaughter for the double header and when next back in London I will drag myself to a game......but I won't stop being critical of the mistakes being made REPEATEDLY at the club, because I care......and that is the definition of a fan.....someone who cares enough to be critical of something they care for.......whereas the bloke you're debating with sounds like a psychophant (sic).
