I travelled four hours on a freezing cold April day to see Bristol Rovers draw 0-0 at Fleetwood and I stayed when we went 4-0 down vs. Exeter in the 24th minute but somehow, that makes me less loyal than the average Yank that wakes up at 8am to watch Liverpool vs. Arsenal on ESPN
Asian and American fans are 10X the fans of most Europeans.
Most club stadiums sit half empty in a pile of rubble while millions around the world wake up at an ungodly hour to watch a team they have no regional loyalty to play for the love of the game.
Never underestimate how much Europeans think the world revolves around them
