Football is…

Football is a wiggle of the hips
Football is a whistle to the lips
Football is an unfollowed script
Football is

Football is kickabouts in the park
Football is floodlights in the dark
Football is fans not oligarchs
Football is

Football is the dream of finishing top
Football is the fear of facing the drop
Football is an open book not a closed shop
Football is

Football is not a share price but a shared obsession
Football is more than just keeping possession
Football is freedom of expression
Football is

Football is the real thing not a rehearsal
Football is a language that’s universal
Football is drama not a corporate commercial
Football is

Football is a door to which we are the key
Football is nothing without you and me
Football is whatever we allow it to be
Football will be…

Poem by Brian Bilston

 

Expressions of hope from fans

Blackburn fan Callum Dunn-Broom
“Hope. It’s hoping for a team that fights for the badge. It’s hoping for a team that makes you proud. It’s hoping for the next Adam Wharton. It’s hoping for last minute winners, celebrating with strangers and losing your glassesin the process. It’s hoping this year’s the year. The year you walk down Wembley Way with your old man for the first time. It’s the hope that kills you. But we’ll be there. Week in. Week out. Hoping.”

Cambridge fan Connor O’Reilly
“Another season brings bouts of anxiety following our teams up and down the country. From the highest of highs of last minute victories and cup shocks, to the lowest of lows with derby day defeats and awful form with no end in sight, it’s never easy being a football fan.”

Wycombe fan Jonny King
The best bit of the season is just before kick off in the opening game. The moments before the first whistle is blown and the first ball is kicked, when everyone is equal and anything is possible. Both sets of fans united by the same hope. The tantalising prospect of what if? What will happen next is anyone’s guess. So all the more reason to enjoy the blissful pre-match ignorance of whatever madness, agony, heartbreak… or glory is about the come.

Crewe fan Jonny Tomlinson
In a town that many pass, but few ever stay, the passion here shines, in a special way. The hope of the Railwaymen, our hearts filled with pride, Crewe Alexandra, we’re always at your side. When passion meets hope, a magic ignites, something truly special, under our stadium lights. Through triumphs and trials, our spirit stays true. Crewe Alexandra, this season and every season were with you.

Salford fan Andrew Gordon
We trust in the process, we hope in the dream. With past high to inspire us, and past lows to drive us. We believe that this is our years! A belief we can be champions. A belief we will go up. You can call it blind loyalty. We call it true faith.
