Why I'm giving up on football, City and Bluemoon

So this is my last post. 55 years after my first match seeing City. 10 years a season ticket holder 1985 to 1995 until work and family took me too far away. I was there in 2012 and was there for that Tuart goal. Been to many but not all recent cup finals.
I have been vocal about VAR, CAS and FFP.
So, today I have decided I have fallen out of love with this game, the trolls on this forum and the corruption hiding in plain sight both financial and governance. Refereeing and game manipulation and arguing the toss with morons and hypocrites.
My passion has faded with each passing year of vested interest interference, press compliance and journalistic spite.
And, yes, VAR has killed my excitement. Thank God we didn't have to wait for it in 2012. A moment that will never be repeated again in football history.
In truth, this has been coming for a while. I will sign off and find a new passion. City are not to blame. I watched football for the fun and passion. I now know more about global politics, financial compliance and sports governance than I do about our own under 18s. Something has gone drastically wrong with the game.
Our own forum has also become raggish and dipperish, misogynistic and trolled by posters who don't even support the club... And then the fans who love certain players rather than the club. Yes I'm old and I won't be missed but I already feel better letting go. Good luck fighting the good but ultimately doomed battle.
Thanks City for the best and worst times of my life but life is too short.
Really don’t want to see you disappear if only for our music chats.
Dont blame you at all but this is exactly what the Yankee owned cartel want.
Best wishes

Don't blame you at all. I'm not sure City themselves give a shit about us 'legacy fans' (evidenced by the european super league fiasco, ticket prices and seating home fans below away fans for cup games). Money and VAR are ruining the game that we all love. That said football is still a fantastic game, consider going to support a lower league team, who'll value your support and the revenue.
 
It’s hard granted the shit we get from every corner but since yesterday I’ve just switched off every football channel radio shite and won’t be going back anytime soon if ever just going to put all my passion and energy into the blues and fuck everyone and everything else and what will be will be
