85 per cent of fans would dump their girlfriends to watch football

Who needs women when there's football?


Football, not love, conquers all this Valentine's Day, as a heartbreaking 85 per cent of fans would dump their girlfriends to watch their club.​

More than three-quarters of men surveyed in a Football Fans Census poll also said they would rather lose their girlfriend than their club. Amazingly, 42 per cent said they would be more annoyed with their team getting beat by their arch rivals in the FA Cup Final, than finding out that their girlfriend had been playing away with their best mate.​

The same number also claimed they would never go out with a girl who supported their club's biggest enemies.​

When it came to wearing their colours with pride, nearly half of all men admitted they would happily buy a replica shirt for their other half, but 82 per cent would never be seen in a replica kit themselves.​

Supporting your team also took precedence when it came to flashing the cash as the average man spends £80.85 watching their team away from home, compared to £51.85 on a date.​

The survey of over 1,700 fans across 125 teams was conducted to mark the premiere of TV programme Football Hurts on Nuts TV, tonight at 10pm.​

Can we say 85% of male British football fans don't love their GF?

Probably just a bunch of jokers that make fun of those who make the survey ;)
And bust the balls of their gf in the mean time. (I know)
