A symptom of how football has changed:
United have a bad run: fans tweet Ole Out
City a poor run: Pep Out
Spurs a poor run: Jose Out
Liverpool a poor run: Klopp Out
I've seen real fans of all these clubs tweet this after bad runs of form for their clubs this season.

There's no patience in football anymore, no understanding of context as to why teams lose games.
Fans think if you have a good team you can just show up, play well and win.
Sometimes great teams lose or draw, sometimes teams play well and lose, sometimes there's context.

Sometimes great teams lose or draw, sometimes teams play well and lose, sometimes there's context.
Sometimes great teams have poor runs of form and great managers have bad runs.
Jose's poor run with us in 2015/16 and his inability to turn it around didn't make him a bad manager, for example.
And this season more than any, every team has had bad runs.

There's this desire for instant gratification and perfection in football which, sadly, has been created by social media, and computer games.
Some people think they know ball but don't, people don't get the nuances around football and bad form and coaching.

People follow players as much as clubs, and newer fans who don't know the history - especially of big clubs - have no loyalty to their own even in tough.
It's all about instant results, their club is a product.
It's all about instant results, their club is a product.
They want instant results and deliverables on that product and if they don't get it they criticise and call for managers to go, without any sense of respect even for club legends.
But football support isn't or shouldn't be about that.

Football is about the ups and downs, about community and family.
It's being in it together and being loyal to your own, singing through the sun and rain, passion, love, commitment.
Yes, we all want to win, we all want success, but that's not all football is about.

Like if we were in a lower league and never had a chance of winning anything, how many of our fans would stick around or still enjoy football?
I'd be there. I was there, went to watch Chelsea last time they were in the Championship.
It's just sad how football has changed.

It is what it is, can't change it.
I just hope as fans we can learn more patience and to understand the context and nuances around football.
