because he judge you, you should at least take some time to think of why others would say that. Tsunami doesn't happen just like that, it happens after some earth cracks beneath the sea. Same goes to you, when someone judge you, at least make the effort to consider, rather than saying whatever you say which implies that you don't care about others. To be honest, ask yourself, do you really not care what people say of you? Are you able to live in the world by yourself and not take others in account? Instead of ignoring the comment, how about you answer it, at least make an effort to defend yourself, or if you realise that you are on the black side of the sheet, try to change yourself.

Bayern Munich was one of the contenders in Europe all this time. Even at those time Manchester United wasn't too much of a threat in European football. Bayern was one of the team that could match Juventus and Real Madrid at those times. So, I'm just saying that you too were supporting one of the best team which makes you a ditto of Manchester United fans at this period.

You kept mentioning yourself being a football fans who sit back and enjoy the game. The fact is, Milito's goal was awesome. The way he faked the defender was just pure skills. Anyone who enjoys football would have had an orgasm. I watched the game with my friends who are fans of Bayern Munich. Obviously, i was rooting for Inter Milan because Bayern Munich knocked United out of Champions League.  But when Milito scored, when I just about to pull out of speech of sinister towards them, they stood up and clapped, and praised Milito. Obviously, they were football players too, not professionally but still football players. And I'm just mentioning the last part for fun. Of course they were sad when Munich succumbed to Inter Milan, but still that match was just great.

And I have took the effort to find your previous posts and none of them mentioned you tried to be not bias. I only could spot the post where you mentioned you just sit back and enjoyed football. How does kicking the chair match "sit back and enjoyed footba"?ll

There's no maybe about it. You are not a fan, no 2 ways about it. It's an insult to fans if you are labeled as one

whats so big deal about it..

speaking about fans, IMO, there are few kind of fans:

a. club fans (only)

b. football fans

c. fans of both

d. FD fan, ID fan



© comprise of those who know in and out of the so-called football knowledges/infos/facts/trivia/history/background/anything else.. notworthy.gif
not only know about their supported club, but also other clubs as well.
at the higher level, even other clubs across the nation/continent, or small club, also they know. notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

(b) similar to ©, but they do not support any specific club, maybe just follow/admire/like one. icon_rolleyes.gif

(a) only know about their supported club. but usually only limited to the general knowledge of the club/player info.
even others know more about that club that they do. sweat.gif
when others give positive opinion about their club, they agree. but in opposite, when others give negative opinion (which sometimes are widely known), they dont! shocking.gif
(also) usually know almost nothing about others.


the question is, which one is you?

ask any Chelsea or Bayern Munich fans, they'd probably slap you if you say you are fan of TWO clubs. Being fond is somewhat not the same as being a fan. Fond is something like admiration, but being a fans, you gotta root for them no matter what. Its like you support Wigan, but when Wigan find Chelsea, you will root for Wigan. So it is rather impossible to call yourself a fan if you sit back and enjoy when two of your favourite clubs are playing against each other.

Most of the people just choose to pin point one team from each different leagues as a point of support to make watching games in that league much more interesting.

If 'international clubs' no longer attached to their actual root surroundings and allegiance can be cheaply obtained by just about everybody all around the world, what stopping the people from making allegiance to 2 or 3 teams? Its that cheap.


Its kinda weird people is questioning that. Most of the people are gloryhunters in our domestic leagues, and we see nothing wrong with that. But we never accept gloryhunters when it comes to the foreign clubs we support. Isn't that kind of ironic and hypocritical?

i think 1 thing that could be worse than glory-hunters are exposure-hunters.

So the teams are pushed down your throat by the media and the people around you all walk around wearing the team's non-original jersey, you duly obliged and jump on the bandwagon?

if you choosing a foreign team to support, at least make an effort to be original.

I think that we've exhausted every possible definition by now. About supporting two clubs, we'll I admit to having soft spot for certain clubs I like to watch but it ends there. In the end, I'm of the opinion there can be only one. If your heart is torn between two loves, it just means that neither has appealed to you and the attraction isn't strong enough.

This thread is aged a year plus already. I think we already discussed what should be discussed back then, the only reason why this thread rose from the dead was because a person is being labelled as a glory hunter by making a fool statement/response here. Even though i got to admit is is interesting though. Kalau nak support 2 teams pun, diam diam aje la no matter how stubborn and how strong you stood for yourself. No need to tell the whole world. Look at your own mirror lah, and the thread title as well. It's written Glory hunter damn it. Of course you will make lots of enemies by making that statement/response here. LOL laugh.gif

Old topics get revived but mostly because there are new users who stumble upon them.

before calling oneself a fan,ask this:

would you still call yourself fan if your beloved club falls hard from it's place.like getting relegated?

sounds impossible?ask juventus about this

another type of gloryhunter is the support your team only when winning type..

they may mostly only declare support for one team. they propably have been supporting the team for a long time also...

but most of the time, they just remain passive and will not go to the stadium because the team is not doing well.. but when the team reaches a final, boy do they came out in drooves. Even genuine fans hard to get tickets.

This is typical for malaysian football fans. we have heard a lot of criticism on football players and admistration. But malaysian football fans is not erfect also and must learn a lot more from football fans in europe.

Suppose I support 2 teams one domestic (say Selangor) & the other international (say City) and , God willing, they happened to meet in the World Club Cup. I maybe rooting for one or the other or both does that make me any less a fan of either one of them?
To question me for being less a City fan? Oxymoron! doh.gif
Why? There will be arrogant posters here who will foist their definition of the notion of my being a City fan or a Selangor fan i.e. I have to choose one or the other.

I say stop being pedantic & quibble about somebody being a Chelsea Fan and a BM fan. To me he is still a Football Fan! A Chelsea Fan & a BM Fan to boot knowing that he can separate chaff from the wheat.

Here we should encourage football fans to support whoever they like or better4 still more than one club across several leagues (whether internationally or domestically)


By doing so we encourage & welcome new fans. No?

As far as I'm concern you are a Chelsea fan & a BM fan to boot. Does that make you a plastic fan? Definitely you are not! The most important thing is you are a knowledgable football fan.

Don't let others browbeat you into submission about that.

I suspect those that questioned you with their inane posts have an axe to grind.



Look we can't even agree on the definition of glory hunters and there are even folks here who don't even understand the meaning of BANDWAGON. shakehead.gif
