I know I know I shouldn't listen to football phone-ins but I had 5Live on in the background yesterday and it was lemming after lemming United or Liverpool fans with London accents phoning in. I can accept it on Talksport, but you'd expect 5Live to a bit more discerning. What really grinds my gears (#edna) is the way the pundits treat them like real football fans talking about their real teams and give them so much airtime. If anyone else was listening yesterday and heard that idiot going on about how he was going up to watch his first game of the season at Anfield in November and was going to try and get front row so he could give Klopp a hug because he is such a legend you will feel my pain.

Thanks for listening. All been done before I appreciate, but aaaaarrrrrrrggghhhhhh! Wankers!

I think there is a massive difference between supporting a club, which we do with our local team, and simply following a team's results, which is all that they are able to do.

I get annoyed by the number of "fans" that phone into BBC Sussex after a home match to give their view of the game, and they haven't even been to the match.

I sit in my car on the way home listening to people's opinion of a game they have not even seen it.

I know live and let live - each to their own and all that.

But, we also see it at home games when cheers go up in the concourse for respective "Prem" teams scoring a goal - I don't get it personally - not for me.

On the park/ride bus in on Saturday one guys yelps excitedly - "yeah United just scored" (whilst wearing an Albion shirt and looked around for others to share his joy) my response was crap I know but I said "What Leeds United?" knowing full well that Manchester United were the early kick off.

HAVE SOME PRIDE - FFS.
