It was more a reaction to being told an over the top reaction and moaning is what the top four fans do. I was just saying that for me it is the opposite. Fans of the big clubs who watch them on TV aren't really passionate to any great extent when they lose.

For me react how you feel is right, within reason. There are much worse things to do than have a bit of a rant on a message board or in the pub afterwards. Football fans have done that in one way or another for years. From the reasoned man in the corner to the ranty man who people think is going over the top. People react differently to different events and always have.
