I am so passionate about Manchester United, I felt all the pain too, losing to Arsenal in the FA cup hurt me alot.
And losing Beckham and Keane were also hurtful times too.
I do not care what you think, just because I was born here doesn't mean I have to support the nearest Premier League team. No one in Gateshead supports Gateshead, and why is that? Because they are not in the Premiership.
Do you ever consider what real professionals go though? Moving from club to club, finding a new heart, dumping the team they supported as a kid, and why? because they are playing for the team they are paid to play for, that goes for managers too.
