Sufely the point of winning is the end goal of what you are playing for.
Are you suggesting United fans should be like Spurs or Liverpool fans and not care about winning stuff so long as we are entertaining.
That isn't aimed at all Liverpool fans by the way as I know some who want to win some shiny stuff.

Here is my new match day routine, putting entertainment first:
Go for pint at pub. Instead of drinking the pint, I pour it over the massive guy in the corner’s head. It is entertaining. I get beaten up, which is entertaining for the rest of the fans. Good start.
We get to the match, I place a large spike onto my seat so that each time I sit down It goes right up my arrrse which is pretty entertaining for the fans, if not that successful a seat.
We are 3-2 up going into stoppage time, instead of holding it in the corner my team’s player takes it past his own defender and smashes it in his own net. It was very entertaining and meant we drew instead of won, but was more entertaining than taking it into the corner and winning.
I had a really hot curry after the match which meant I got diahorrea on the train when the toilet was engaged so was pretty entertaining, I don’t care if a less stomach upsetting meal would have been a more “successful” meal.
The diahorrea was more entertaining.
On the way home there was that big guy from the pub again, he asked whether he should let me walk home or whether he should stick a firework up my arrrsee (there seems to be a lot of things going up arrses, heyho that’s entertainment) so clearly I chose the more entertaining option.
I died. It was pretty entertaining.

I don't find things going up arses entertaining. Call me weird.
Although watching someone with a Pineapple would certainly get my attention, if nothing else.

blue collar means he supports City and hates winter because it contains the word "win" which he hates.

I think what he is alluding to is that people should stick to one colour and then we would not have all of these mixed coloured things in the world. We should decide upon the best colour, then eliminate other colours which we see inferior. It is just how we eliminate them which I have yet to figure out. the first thing to do it to round them up I reckon.

Blue collar workers are the people that were priced out of going to the stadium by the greedy bourgeoisie club owners. You know, people such as meself. Good, ol' honest & hard working men. The type that goes to the stadium these days is the Armani suit wearing types that work for thieving banks (their motto is ''Your money, is Armani'', lying lawyers, corrupt politicians, and any that works for big pharma, the media, the military industrial complex, ''green companies'' & clowns of that ilk.
