Fans And Fanfare
Sportstar
|November 26, 2016
Every sport has pillars that support it. They are the players themselves, the administrators, the media, the sponsors, but above all are the fans. Without the fans, the game WOULD BE POORER and the players would not enjoy playing.
-
The England cricket team is in India, and as it happens on all their overseas tours,they have a band of loyal followers who travel to whichever country they are playing in and cheer for them. There are many such groups in England and they bring with them their banners of support and slogans, and also those of their favourite football club team.
The most famous group is the Barmy Army. They have their own logo, their own travel agents and have some sort of official recognition of the England and Wales Cricket Board. The players also recognise their support and so make the effort to meet up with them after a game, or whenever they can. Of course, it is not possible for the group to stay in the same hotels as the English team does, but in smaller towns and cities, where commuting is not a problem, the Barmy Army does manage to get to the hotel where the team stays and meet them.
