One thing first.....i am not a "fake interista",i am a lpool fan born in lpool who has had a season ticket since 1976( yes im 47!lol),i am on here because i like to see other teams fans opinions of various issues,thats all,so now we've got that straight....................you have a very romantic/idealistic notion of football/inter,nowhere in my post have i condoned or mentioned racism so i dont know why you mention that to me?ALL i said was if you are local to the club you follow then "normally" your feelings will be stronger( i understand "outsiders" feelings can also be strong as well btw)than those from outside the clubs home town,case in point was when micheal owen was available on a free transfer this summer,myself and all my mates and the VAST majority of reds who were born in the city would NEVER have him back after the way he left for madrid,it made football and financial sense to get him back BUT we didnt want him,however if you were to look at various LFC websites in other parts of the world THEY wanted him back.my point is that "in general" local football fans tend to look at things in black and white,things tend to hurt them more,im NOT saying people from outside a clubs home city "dont" care,im saying that its only natural that locals get more passionate about their club and feel betrayal "more" than "outsiders",its just human nature that someone who has been going the match and borrowing thousands of pounds(as i have)to go to finals in europe etc since they were a teen "will" have stronger feelings,thats all my point was,i dont think there is anything wrong with people who get wound up/angry by their top player leaving their club,like i said........it may not even make sense BUT its just all about emotions!i personally could never have your magnanimous/forgiving attitude to micheal "the maggot" owen for instance,to me he's a judas,the lowest of the low now that he's joined united,i dont analyse my feelings ,they are how i feel in my heart ,and thats all that matters as a fan of lpool.so we will agree to dissagree on the subject,you can take your subjective/analytical approach and i will go with my feelings.
