Pardon me if this post or something similar have been created before now. Well this post was inspired by a news from Football Tweet on  X concerning a Swansea City FC   employee who got sacked for betting on the club he works in to lose for about 130 times. It's so unfortunate he lost his jobs, Well some people were in his support and claimed it's not his fault for the club to keep losing and the man was only trying to make extra cash, while there were others who claimed it was betrayal and he should've supported the club as a true fan. Left for me, I feel he's not a fan of the club and just an employee and I'll do same if I were not a fan of the club I work for moreover the club kept losing and he seized the opportunity to make extra cash from their misfortune. Well I never betted against the club i support I'll rather bet on other matches. However this brings us back to the question, would you bet against the club you support ?
I am also a fan of a football club "sorry I don't want to mention the name of the club", every time that club plays against any club, I remain in the position of the club that I like. I don't care about winning or losing with that club, and I don't care about losing money because the club I love lost a match. Maybe the story is almost similar to what I experienced. Of course, as someone who likes to gamble, it's not worth it that way. They must follow every match professionally, not based on their love of a club.
