1) Have you ever been to a live football match or watched it on T.V
Answer: YES or NO
Yes, lots.
If yes describe the atmosphere??
Which one? Have been to the biggest of games (two CL finals in Istanbul and Athens) where the atmosphere was amazing and is something I will never forget. And also been to lowly Carling/FA cup games against minnows like Lutton where it wasnt the best.
I have had a season ticket for coming upto 18yrs now, so probably been to well over 500 games in my life, and Ive never been in an atmosphere where I felt something bad was going to happen - and in all those games Ive only ever seen one fight.
2) Do you support a football team, and which team?
Liverpool
3) How would you describe Football culture? (Example: what words would you use?)
What do you mean by 'football culture'?
4) Do you watch or have you ever seen any films or television series related to football??
Yes
If yes, what were they??
Green Street (where jr plays an amazing role as himself), Football Factory, that one with the mocky cunt Danny Dyer, loads of other documentaries.
4a) In these films/TV series do you think they link to what football culture is like today? Explain your reason
Most of these films/programmes have violence at their core. And although I know it probably does happen still, and certainly did in the past, in my experience they dont represent what football in the UK is like anymore. I can understand why they do it, as otherwise it wouldnt be worth watching, but it isnt helping remove the stigma attached to our game even though a hell of a lot of hardwork has been done to stamp it out.
and finally did you enjoy watching them???
Some of them, but jr and Danny Dyer's accents really fucking get on my tits.

Yes, but only at Anfield because I am too much of a pussy to go to an away game in the Premier League, or FA Cup game for that matter.

Bullshit, Luton vs Liverpool was a class game (2006), great atmosphere for Luton fans

TBH the one at Anfield was good too, Luton fans (and JonnyJ) didnt shut up for the 90mins. I only threw it out there as bait for Nath
