If you were given £52000 (£1000 per week tax free). You would have to wear a club shirt and go to all their matches for a season. Well?.....

As the OP I should have put my answer first... No I couldn't do it, I could never live with the shame, mind you the fifty two large would come in handy...

Can I just go to away games? Do I have to cheer when they score? Do I have to buy my own rake?
Who would be paying the money?

Well, going back to your question above; you could fund several new nieces in Swindon for that amount, I imagine.

No f*cking chance, and it took me about five seconds to decide.

I'd bite your hand off for £52,000.
I'd even throw in a Swindon tattoo on my arm for that sort of money.

Im a bit disgusted at myself how quickly I thought 'YES'. As long as it wasfor a year only andI didnt have to actually cheer them on. For me, that would be a life changing amount.

I wouldn't, and couldn't, do it for ten times that. I would hate myself for the rest of my life and the money would never compensate for that.

Probably about to make myself the most unpopular poster on the forum, but here goes... Although of course Swindon are our bitter rivals (etc etc etc) deep down I have far more respect for the majority of their supporters (actually turning out and supporting their home town team though thick - very thick! - and thin) than I do for any amount of sofa-sitting replica-shirt-in-the-pub-wearing tv-televised-watching Prem team glory-hunting 'supporters' who back a team they have no connection with because they are successful, trendy or 'its what their mates do' and who probably never actually go to a game. So yes, I'd take your £52,000 (although I'd have to read the small print) - I'd be listening in to the Oxford game on RadOx while I was there. Can I have a half and half scarf please Ask me to give up going to live football, to wear a Man U shirt and sit in the pub pontificating about over-paid, over-rated players I've never seen play live and I'll pass and just keep going to see the club I love, thanks all the same.

Of course I would. £52K is a lot of money, and would do me and my family very nicely. It doesn't mean I will enjoy it, but it's a bit like going to work for most us - how many of us enjoy that? But it pays well effectively working out as £1000 for 2 or 4 hours 'work' so to speak.
You mention going to the game, but no mention of watching the game - I might just spend the 90 minutes propping up the bar/sitting on the john whilst listening to more important goings on via Yellow Player/Radio Oxford.
Oh and once the season's over, the Swindon shirt would be very useful should I run out of toilet paper.

Definitely. I'm Oxford through and through, but £52k would mean I could enjoy my 20s without constantly having to decide between saving for a deposit or enjoying life (by which what I actually mean is enjoying life without having the guilt of not saving).
