I would genuinely like to know what the actual fuck is wrong with football fans.
It's not about wealth or class or "tribalism" (Rugby League fans aren't utter cunts all the time) and it's certainly not intelligence (I watch a lot of live Rugby Union and, frankly, football has no fanbase monopoly on retards) ... so what is it? Something about the game? It's not the money, fans have been being cunts since way before the PL era.

It's their low IQs and working class-ness.
Frightful oaves, the lot of them.

You get the same people at cricket Monty, they just don't act as cuntish.

I've covered that, though. Same applies to Rugby League, without the same result.

I wish I knew.

I think the money has something to do with it
A lot of fans feel a sense of entitlement as a result of shelling out a fucking fortune to watch their team.

The 80s were pretty much "optimal cunt time" in football
it wasn't expensive back then. So not sure that's true.

Surely that had more to do with the rise of hooliganism?
Which is more about a small group of utter cunts making the rest of us look bad, no? Perhaps the lengths gone to in order to quash hooliganism have caused the frustration behind it to infect larger groups, the old "one bad apple" theory.

Perhaps this is utter bollocks.

It's probably no more or less bollocks than any other explanation.
