Re: Fan kills self after Manchester United loss

Tragic lack of perspective - obviously wasn't at the York away game.

Even before opening up the thread I knew this would be from Kenya. Coming from Kenya myself, I know how passionate they are about football. Everyone thinks they are passionate but they take passion to a whole new level. Most of them have little else in their lives and football and especially the Premier League is their only outlet. Everyone out there is either a United, Arsenal or Liverpool fan.

RIP young man, very sad.

Whether it's "very sad" is debatable.

What isn't debatable is that the gene pool is stronger as a result.

Arsenal fan loses house in wager against Manchester United fan who staked his car and wife

The pair were betting on the outcome of the match at Old Trafford on Sunday

While most Arsenal supporters lost some pride when Manchester United beat the Gunners on Sunday, one fan lost much much more.

A man in the Iganga District of Eastern Uganda reportedly lost his house in a bet over the outcome of the match.

It's claimed that before the game Henry Dhabasani staked his two-room home in a bet with Rashid Yiga that Arsenal would win the game at Old Trafford. Yiga accepted the bet, and put quite a bit on the line himself. Along with his Toyota Premio, he also staked his wife.

The pair put their bet in writing, which was witnessed by local leaders and fans.

Dhabasani, who is married to three wives and has five children, reportedly fainted upon the final whistle with the score ending 1-0 to Manchester United.

On Monday, Manchester United fans "stormed" Dhabasani’s home and threw him and his family out, according to the Observer in Uganda.

Are you sure he wasn't a Liverpool fan?
Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that.

I don't believe this story. Or at least don't believe this was the extent of it. Probably had gambling debts or something similar.

If he genuinely did kill himself just because of a football match, then to quote Bill Hicks, "we lost a moron."
