The article is about who are football fans, their habits, custons and pastimes.
The author's communicative aim is to make us reconsider our attitude to this youth group.
Most people believe that all football fans are hooligans, but it isn't so.
In his article the author touches upon several problems related to poor organization of youth leisure, the problem of vandalism and the problem of unhealthy joy of their team.
At the beginning of his article the author reveals who is a football fan.
He is convinced that fan's work is a set of rituals.
There are a lot of attributes, for example: am bands, flags, T-shirts and caps.
They usually cheer supporting their favoutite team.
Also they meet out of stadium discussing their team and humbling the opposing team.
At the next paragraph the author takes up a firm attitude that young people are attracted by such a move as football fans because they can share their feelings and talk about their favorite team with the same people who is interested in it.
Undoubtedly, the author criticizes the negative activities of football fans such as fights, graffity and as well as large-scale fighting with other team.
Finally the author concludes that many teens simply playing fans because of their partner is not organized as follows.
I strongly disagree with the author's opinion.
To tell the truth in our society there are a lot of young clubs and arganizations, which usefully spend their leisure time.
As for support of the team, a person can watch the game in the sport bar without further fighting and screaming or join to the football section.
It is much safer for the society.
