Benteke is a footballer, an athlete yes but not track and field.

Yes it's accurate but I don't really care. 'Athlete' is generally applied to track and field competitors.

If someone says they follow athletics I assume they mean the Diamond League not the World Cup.

Must be a British thing, we call that track and field out here.

[The Batlord]

And I've never met anybody who follows track and field so they'd have to explicitly tell me that they follow track and field for me to get the idea that they follow track and field.

Nobody who follows football (soccer to you) here would say they followed athletics. They're seen as totally different, just the same as tennis, golf, darts etc would not be considered in any way athletics. It covers the likes of running, jumps, javelin, hammer, shot putt, pole vault and gymnastics.

It accurately depicts an annoying vocal minority of a group.
