Working Class Football Identity
« on: October 16, 2017, 08:10:49 PM »
Since the creation of the premiership, has football lost its working class identity, and have football fans lost there working class roots. Have we been brain washed, and socially engineered ??

The treatment of working class people in life is perfectly summed at football.

They deliberately under educate us to rip us of our identity and habits.
