If Kelvin McKenzie went to a Liverpool game he'd get the same amount of grief that the morbidly obese gentlemen with horrific teethD

They have never been associated with one area and have always moved around in the same way franchises do in the US, so they don't understand when fans of other clubs take exception to hearing their area abused. You're in Tottenham the moment you step off the train at WHL or the tube at Seven Sisters but you're only "in" Arsenal when you get inside the stadium. And what do you to find there? Sun faded pink seats, fans who largely sit in silence and film themselves. A geriatric dictator strolling around kicking water bottles. All overseen from afar by a very strange looking American person. And when Arsenal fans visit other stadiums it seems to traumatize them seeing people chanting and making noise. I think it's probably best for everyone if they stop travelling to away matches, pretty much like their team has.
