Just wondering if anyone else around here has any interest in creating a loosely organized coalition of dudes whoobuy season tickets and love the game and club, but don't want to paint their face and stand and sing all game long because they have shit they have to do the next day.
When I was 25, I could do that. Not so much now. I'll pay supporters club dues, and I will help them out anyway I can other than committing to sit and sing with them. If no one has done so, I would like to start organizing an off-shoot/sub-set/whatever of people who share the passion, but not the drive or ability to be balls out in the supporters section all the time.
I'm thinking of folks who want to get seats near each other, meet for pre/post match drinks and good chats about the squad and tactics, but don't want to commit themselves to being part of the song engine/fraternal order of raising hell . I'm all about singing my ass off at the beginning and end of a match and a time or two in the middle if appropriate. Otherwise, I want to watch the match and applaud footballing done well and swear at the shit MLS refs.
I could give a fuck about someone telling me to sing. I don't want to keep anyone else from doing that (and SS should be that way). There has to be some other guys similarly positioned who are married/have other obligations and just can't be a part of that regularly anymore, but they would stil like the camaraderie and participation aspect of being in a group.
Is there something out there like this? If not, is there enough interest among others that I or someone might petition an appropriate party to get recognized as an officially unofficial wing/branch? Just trying to gauge interest to see if there are others similarly inclined.
