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

[Ballosteve]

blue44 has apologised and I’ve accepted it.

This is a story for another time but last year I had an emergency ileostomy to cut part of my bowel away as it was infected. It was cancerous. I’ve since had the all clear and am now a stoma bag wearing vegetarian.

I never used to understand how people could be so brave when undergoing this treatment and thought I’d crumble. You’ve just got to face it. It’s changed me considerably as a person.

I had part of my bowel removed and had a colostomy for 19 months but managed to reverse it but like you it changes your outlook on life big time...much better person inside and out...

I used to watch as many PL games as possible.
Now it would be rare that I watch one that doesn't involve City.
I'd never miss MOTD or MOTD2, but live games between Chelsea and West Ham, or Spurs v Liverpool don't really appeal to me.
I actually remember when it was a novelty a match on a Monday night on Sky and i never missed a game.
Blackburn v Chelsea with Tore Andre Flo playing - never missed a game. Suppose its part of growing up

Now I'd watch the odd live game such as United v Liverpool or Arsenal v United, but even if City were in a title race with another club i'd usually avoid watching it, or watch it until that rival team scores then give up.

Yeah I'm the same way, I can't watch other English teams.

Somehow cringed watching the Real Madrid highlights yesterday as they beat the dippers!

Did they have a good look at you before it was reversed? I think I’m about six months in. Wearing a stoma is fine (my arse has never been so clean) but it’s just keeping it hidden when I wear certain kinds of clothes.

Think this thread should be closed especially as the OP has said he’s giving up on City and Bluemoon, it’s just so negative. Everyone has a right to do what they want but I don’t see the point of this thread anymore, I assume the OP has fucked off now so time to close this debate @Moderating Team can you do this to save us from another batch of irritating, irrelevant posts?

I know where you're coming from HOTM.
The modern game is in many ways despicable.

I don't think it's possible for me to walk away as City is like a member of my family to me , one I actually like!
