As strong as your words are, keep in mind that it is but merely your opinion and everyone has given theirs. I'm sure he appreciates your support but do realise that sometimes, and just sometimes, when the world conspires against you, that you can be wrong. In any case, it's your opinion and I'm sure everyone acknowledges it, even if we don't agree.

Hi, my name is Coconut Baron. I am from USA. Never been to any games, only have 5 jerseys, only supported after 1999 and think i am a true manchester united supporter. I never miss a game on tv and always on the internet a minute after fulltime. I live too far away to attend any matches. I guess that doesn't matter. Glory, Glory, Man Utd.

because everyone appreciate great clubs playing great football

thats what i have been saying all along. If you support any foreign club because they play 'great football'.. just go on and do it and except that you are a 'gloryhunter'. Whats so hard with that ..

its not like you are killing anyone. Speeding or downloading pirate MP3s are much worse according to the law yet its acceptable for us to accept that we do it. so just accept that you practice glory-hunting and get on with it...

the first step to address a problem is to break down your veil of denial and accept that 'you have the problem'.

So altogether now. " Saya gloryhunter, saya ok". Say it..

ini bukan american idol lah..
apa yang susah sgt nak terima.

ini bukan dunia hiburan lah
apa yang susah sgt nak terima.

this is football. true football fans support their own local team.

i watch Chelsea Milan & Real to 'fill up'my passion. nothing more than that.
i wont buy RM 250 oversized ADIDAS chelsea jersey for the sake of prooving i'm true to them.

I'll start!

Saya GLORYHUNTER

Supporting a club with AMBITION.


I'm not a BANDWAGON JUMPER.




Sorry so say s'times I speed (not more than 10% over speed limit)
I don't download pirate media for my 'halcyon' days of 'collecting' or duplicating copies are over .

I am a football cognoscenti of beautiful football ala Barca-RM super classico.

It makes sense since 2010 FIFA team comprise of Barca & RM players mainly. No?

thats whats i talking about.....

^thanks for clarifying that

Another football fan!

Don't be daft. Being loyal to one team doesn't mean you can't watch other teams play. It doesn't mean that you cannot appreciate good football. We don't see the world in black and white like less evolved species do, so just because someone loves on club, it doesn't also mean he only watches one club, or owns one jersey. The argument is against fans to support more than one club even if they are rivals. e.g how can one support Man Utd and Liverpool at the same time?

being a true fan is about being loyal.
supporting any big club in particular =/= glory hunter.
get your facts right before trying to act smart.

so, if I've been to Old Trafford, I am no longer a glory hunter?

so you are saying i have to be born there to support the local club there?
well, then more than 90% of the fans are glory hunter according to your a$$wipe theory.

glory hunter?

well i remember during my primary school days... almost everyone in my classroom are Man Utd fans... maybe like 80% of them and eventually i become one of those idiots who got brainwashed... and it was just right before Arsenal break Man Utd dominance during the late 90s

i still have some red devil passion around year 2000 (sekolah menengah now) but is slowly fading away

and i feel Man Utd games are boring, i simply do not find their game that interesting to watch... same goes to Liverpool... don't get me wrong... i have tried so many fxxking times to watch their games, but it is still boring for me

i don't care if they lose some matches but i tend to get really bore when watching their games

and now thinking back of it again... that is just so pathetic of me for being one of those fools who got brainwashered
i called it brainwasher bcoz of my friends influence

as i grow older, i tend to find the right "style" for myself... i read tons of paper at the sport section as my family do not have astro at that time

watch some Arsenal games on tv1 or tv2, and i never get sleepy

reading all the headlines such as "Arsenal hammered team blablabla 5-0" or "King Henry the top scorer", and etc. makes me begin to slowly fall in love with Arsenal... and since around 2001 there is no turning back for me, yes i support them before the 49 unbeaten runs

so am i glory hunter? i don't think so coz i am more of a "beautiful game hunter", well i guess i hate to get sleepy when watching matches

keep it clean and stick to the topic folks

yes.. according to globally accepted urban definition, around 90% is about the right amount.... and base on arab team's fan attendance in Asia Cup, i think this it is widespread among the whole Asia as well... IMO, only small pockets of fans that loyally support their local clubs in Japan and Indonesia are pure non-glory hunters...

its not just about being loyal... what more important it to who you being loyal to... i think most glory-hunters are loyal to the big club they choose to support, no doubt about that.. but i think this is due to reason that big club tend to be favorite to win games most of the time for a long period of time, making being 'loyal' relative easier.... you cannot use the world 'loyal' easily without being really tested... i mean 'reaally' tested... not just not winning the league on the the last day of the season for 20 years.. the real test is when your on pitch expectation of the team that you support become soo low, that even a draw result againts Wolves or Northampton you will receive with an open arms as a good start and can really make your day...

in generally accepted definition , when you are not 'loyal' to your local club while supporting other people's club like crazy, then you are a glory hunter. If you come from kedah, you would not support Selangor in any condition eventhough they dominate the whole of Malaysian football title history now do you...

but of course, out of denial, we tend to make our own un-complete definition about glory-hunters that suit our position... and who am i to deny it

Added on January 26, 2011, 9:54 ami think the best thing to shield yourself from the guilt is to purchase the season ticket ..... even if you dont go to any of the matches... ..

being a season ticket holder will make you looks like a local from that area .. even if you are not..
