“Football is a gentle sports persons game, which requires all the motor abilities, technique, tactics etc.,. For me its like life & death, hope more better than these”.

For me the football is an art, a well composed and performed symphony music. The Manager (Boss) is the conductor. It is not an individual sport but a teem sport. Every player must go for its physical strength vie training, diet and positive life and to improve it endlessly and to convert this strength into technical skills. Football is not a street fight, it is a skilful fight. Players, managers and teems can improve endlessly, towards 100%, which, of course, is unreachable. The strive for perfectionism as a colective exercise, put and guided by the manager, is the beauty of the game. THE BEAUTIFUL GAME. That’s what make the people to follow it and millions to love it. That’s roughly what I think.

To start, great article. I am relieved to hear that I am not the only one that has difficulty in pin-pointing my passion for the game.
What exactly was the trigger that reeled us in? How did we evolve from that of a simple fan and admirer to a full fledged fanatic? I belive that in one way or another, this beautiful game has touched us deeply and left a mark in our heart on a very personal level. As for myself, football has always been there for me through the ups and downs of this journey we call life.
I did not choose to becme a football player and fan. Football chose me.

I am proud and honored to be a part of this sport.

I’m 17 and I’ve been watching football for 6 years. I’m a great United fun and I’ve supported the club in good times and bad times as well. I find it very difficult to explain what I feel for football. It’s more than passion: whenever I’m sad or having a very severe migraine, it’s either because Man Utd has been scored or a ManUtd player is injured. I love Brazilian soccer as well: THE RIVALDO’s era was the best. My favourite players are Kaka and Ryan Giggs because they never disappoint, they play with great passion and determination. In school, my friends find it rather intriguing to find a girl loving soccer and I tell them,’Soccer relaxes the nerves”. So Jason, Keep on loving football and Keep on supporting the RED DEVILS coz we’ve got a lot to prove this season.

The 2 biggest things I have to explain to people is the liking of the sport and the club I support. I live in the US and support Man Utd. Glory Scum I know…I’ve heard it all. Explaining that part is somewhat easy. My mom’s, cousin’s husband is from Manchester. He went to the Academy there and even play for United. of course it was their school games and a handful of reserve matches, but none the less, at 12 years old that was the team I liked. I had a family member play for them. I’ve supported the club for 11 years now and the bigger they get the more I hear the words glory scum. doesn’t bother me though. I get excited when they win and saddened like anyoen else when they lose. The 2 years of watching Chelsea on top the table were terrible! of course the 99 treble was great but I was 14 at the time. only been watchins for 2 years, so it was just a high point in saying the team I supported was unstoppable. Last year was the greatest season I’ve witnessed now as an adult. I cheered my team on. My cousin is an Arsenal supporter so it was nice to watch those games with him 2-2 and the 2-1 win later in season was nice to rub in his face.
I agree with everything in the article. It’s hard to explain why we as football supporters have the passion we do for the game. I watch American Football and been a fan of my “home-town” team for almost 20 years, but it doesn’t excite me as much as when it does to see Tevez score the winning goal after a long fought match, or giggs running down the sideline to cross in a header for Rooney or Ronaldo.
