I stopped going to (My Beloved) Melbourne City this season. Mainly on account of moving a distance from the city.. partly because the football is shit and the people running the league hate fans. I wondered if I’d miss it.. because the who ‘thing’ of going to the games was always fun… but I’ve barely even registered that the whole thing even still exists.
I can’t imagine that FIFA’s bullshit would put me off Forest.. but I’m already a distance down the road with being done with international football. Qatar wasn’t an aberration.. it was how it is, and if the people running the game internationally are happy to let FIFA give a peace prize to the man blowing up fishing boats for clicks then, y’know, maybe all I can do is pointedly suspend my streaming subscriptions and not watch their tournament.. but that seems like a thing I actually should, and would, do.
