The "nobody died" quote is too glib, you may as well quote the one about "football isn't life and death, it's more important than that". I'm sure for most fans, the second one is closer to the truth. Nobody died when the club folded. And nobody died when I stood in the Bobby Moore and clapped the best West Ham side I've ever seen into relegation. But they were both two of the worst days of my life. True, it wasn't the death of a close friend or the news that you've got cancer, but to dismiss it so glibly is to deny the impact of the emotional connection many fans have with their clubs. We invest a ridiculous amount of hope and expectation into our club, many of us for a lifetime, some with little else to look forward to in their lives. We don't expect reciprocation, of course, but we DO expect, at the very least, that they care and they try. Probably explains why you've got over 10k posts on here - 99% of which are more drivel than mine I only do it to save you from the ennui of your otherwise pointless little black and white life (nothing but bamboo to eat, no sex, and, ultimately the utter pointlessness of extinction). You should be grateful. Although, at least you're more fun than nws.

That's the Eloi but the sentiment is the same and apparently on the dark winter nights I look like a Morlock.
