You know what, that's how I feel about it. A couple of years ago changed my outlook completely. It's a game of fitba' nothing more nothing less. I love to see my team win but I don't lose sleep over a defeat, even a humping.
I care more about the fabric of the club, the history, the culture than the 90 minutes on a Saturday but I also think the true measure of a fanbase is how they react to difficult times. Sadly ours show themselves to be completely lacking, we're not supportive to a fault the way it should be, we're certainly not all in this together and that's a real shame. It's not a recent thing either, ever since 1991 I've noticed a shift in our support of the team on the park, no longer was it enough just to make do, we HAD to be doing well or else someone was getting it. Too long a list of targets for here but the prime example was Tommy McLean, even when we were never out of the top 4 in 1993-94 wee TomTom was getting pelters (and I was guilty of that before the Cup win admittedly then I wised up) so I shouldn't be surprised anymore at the reaction to anything less than a 3-0 victory. Unrealistic expectations is probably the best description I can find. If we're shite then so what, it's our shite and I'll still be with them 100%.
