Derbies

Yo fans of the greatest club on Earth!!!

2day I'm going 2 talk about derbies.For the ignorant,a derby is a rivalry between 2 teams in any sport(etc.Man United vs Man City),especially if they are local teams.

In the Singapore Football Weekly issue 325,it is said that derbies keep the soul of football alive admist the overseas takeovers & all that argy bargy.This ,2 a certain extent is very true.However, there is a dark side 2 derbies,destroying an extremely important thing.

It is friendship and family bonds.If the whole family support the same club,this is no problem.However,if a few members support a rival club,these bonds will b shattered.Who knows how many friendships and family relations were broken @ the realisation that one party supports a rival club.Some people are reasonable & r only unfriendly 2 that friend on match day some are serious about this kind of thing & would have nothing 2 do with that person anymore.

As Manchester United is a club with many fierce derbies,I find it necessary 2 address the issue.Yes,derbies r part of what Manchester United is,but they should only b taken seriously on match day.Soccer is not the most important thing in the world,so chill man!!!
