We discover who the true Rossoneri among our fans and members are.

We're in for a long, hard season and I'd suggest anyone who quits (or disappears from this forum) based on it probably wasn't much of a fan in the first place.

There are many members who disappeared for one reason or another, but I'd argue the main regulars now are the board's established population. Anyone not here in January of that lot for Milan reasons are the chafe, IMO.

I myself have taken time out from the place a couple of times but not for football reasons.

If Milan get relegated this season, I'll still be here.

Will you?

Interesting theory. I have one too. If your first team is not Milan, then you are not really a Milan fan. And you certainly can't tell Milan fans how to be real Milan fans. Maybe I should explain the meaning of irony to you allover again.

A bit of a stretch that? Though it is good to see your ugly self here again. I missed you butthead. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)


In the end, you're always a football fan I believe. And the values you like in football are the ones you look for in a club. Sometimes you have supported the club long enough to know what its core values are and therefore believe anything contrary is just a blip in the graph. Sometimes it doesn't work that way, and the very core values of your club does change. And sometimes you're not okay with that change at all and can no longer support what your old club now represents.

So I'm not one for censuring anyone. Who am I to judge why someone should support Milan? If you supported a winning team that had some of the best players in Europe strut stuff as an elite heavyweight, there's nothing wrong with that, and you probably shouldn't let someone tell you you're being shallow. After all a heartfelt admiration towards excellence and professionalism is nothing to be ashamed of.

My values are not the same.

I supported Milan and Newcastle coz of that community feeling they generated. It was a nice cozy family atmosphere. When I feel it no longer exists without a shred of hope for it to return, then I too might need to find another club. But yes, winning or losing has little to do with my loyalties.
