It seems like an odd time to ask this question, as there are
so many signs indicating that Milan is finally starting to resuscitate. But as
a Milan fan, where do you draw the line? We have suffered so much this past
three and a half years since the exit of the Senatori and the sale of Ibra and
Silva. And we have already lost many fans along the way. But what is your
limit? Where do you draw the line?
Most people have a line that can't be crossed... will Milan cross yours? |
If Galliani
helps rival teams while we are trying to reach a Champions League spot,
would that be a dealbreaker? If Mihajlovic is fired to bring in a coach like
Conte this summer, would that be your final straw? If Berlusconi were to sell a
stake in the club to someone even more criminal and despicable than him, would
you finally say “enough?” What if the club was sold to someone who didn’t even
know football and they sold anyone worth having and bought MLS players? What if
the club were relegated to Serie B and you couldn’t watch them play every week?
I have always insisted that I
bleed red and black, and will never change. But after witnessing these
past years of turmoil, and thinking of the possibilities that still lie ahead,
I have to ask myself the hard questions: will I still be true? I like to think
that I will, that the passion
which binds me to this club will overcome every obstacle that may lie
ahead. Despite all of the insanity, when I look into my heart, I cannot
comprehend a scenario in which I will not support my beloved Milan.
The Curva are done with Milan... when it suits them |
So my question for
you is where do you draw the line?
Do any of the above scenarios make you ill? Do you have a line? Because most
people do, and that’s okay. We’ve seen first hand how many fans have reached
their limit and walked away already. If not only temporarily, then permanently.
And it’s okay, I certainly can’t blame anyone. Being such a masochist is
nothing to be proud of. So take the poll
and then tell us in the comments where you stand, and be honest. No blaming
or finger-pointing or shaming. I just want to know where you draw the line.
