Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2138908, member: 1764"] That's a brilliant analogy Hammo. Whoever came up with it is very astute. Fans see football almost like a fantasy, a way to take them away from reality and into a different world where your heroes are virtuous and immortal. It's so much harder to have the same passion and enthusiasm when you know they get up to shit like this in their own time. Which is why it's better to know as little as possible about the men, but rather focus on the bloke in the jersey. And the best way for that to be possible is for the players to keep their private lives guarded. And the best way for them to do that is to not act like a dickhead in public. Funny how it all comes back to the same point. And ultimately if these guys are too dumb to keep their noses clean in public, the club has to make it a part of their contract that they're forbidden from frequenting public places of drinking and debauchery while on the books.
