Saya, Pyroboy1911, dengan sukacitanya memaklumkan kepada member2 LYN bahawa, di bawah akta Yukieliew yang dimartabatkan sebagai definisi Pemburu Kejayaan ataupun dekenali di dalam Bahasa Inggeris sebagai "Glory Hunter", adalah seorang Glory Hunter. Pengakuan ini dibuat setelah saya mendapati saya menyokong Kelab Bolasepak Manchester Bersatu ataupun dikenali di dalam Bahasa Inggeris sebagai Manchester United Football Club. Penyokongan ini bermakna saya telah memenuhi syarat2 akta yang berkenaan, dimana penyokongan kelab-kelab bolasepak yang telah memenangi sekurang-kurangnya SATU (1) piala adalah ciri-ciri Pemburu kejayaan. Sekian, maklum.

that one is akta lama la. Yukieliew has come in with enough credibility in his name to change the definition. I mean, who can say he is wrong right? after all, his word is the law.

Still no answer to my "if a smoker stops, is he still a smoker?" questions. Here's how I would answer if I were on the other camp. "have you guys stopped smoking?". Has your team actually stopped winning? This is how debates are meant to be conducted. Instead I'm getting ," dont care, you are a glory hunter", retorts.

I didn't read through the past 29 pages but for me,the easiest way to define a glory hunter is by looking for the main reason why that particular person chose to support/follow a particular team.

The best example i can think of is the Galacticos of Madrid. They won everything. They had the best players. When i was in school,everyone who talked about Spanish football talked about Real Madrid and their galaticos. The reason why people liked Real is because Real won everything.A great number of them didn't even watch the games.All they cared about is that the team won and they can gloat. Then came the other group who just wanted to support the underdogs,and ended up becoming fans of that team. (equally annoying i must add)

The best example for this,and no offense to fans of other teams here,is the anti-MU guys. Again,in during my schooling days,there were a lot of people who just hated MU for the sake of hating MU and whenever there was a title challenger to us in that particular season,suddenly that team would gain fans by the tenfold.

So basically a glory hunter doesn't really care about 'his' club. All he does is follow them when they're winning and blast them when they lose. He just wants the win to shove it in the face of the rivals.

What's your prove? Source

Interesting facts
- United have had a higher average attendance than City EVERY SINGLE SEASON since 1947.
- When City won the league in the 1968, they had the 6th highest attendance in the country. United had the highest average attendance of 57,552, more than 10,000 higher than any club that season.
- When United were playing in Division 2 during the 1974-1975 season, they still had the highest average attendance of any club in the country, including Division 1.
- City have had a higher average attendance ranking than they have average league position every decade.
- Between 1946 and 1949 United played at Maine Road whilst reconstruction work was being done on Old Trafford after the bombings in the war. In the first season, when City won the league, United had an average attendance of 4,662 more than City at their own stadium. In the second season, United had an average attendance of 12,165 more than City at their own stadium. In the third season, United had an average attendance of 10,109 more than City at their own stadium.
- United have a higher average attendance than City for every decade since the 1940’s.
- Between 1947 and the year before the Munich Air Disaster, there was an average of almost 7,000 more United fans attending games than City.
- City were a more successful club on the pitch than United in the 1970s, yet there was a difference of over 13,000 in our average attendances, with United the best supported club of the decade.

In the 1950s…
City’s average league position: 15th
City’s average attendance position: 10th (1 year in Div 2 – position not included)
City’s average attendance: 30,028
United’s average league position: 3rd
United’s average attendance position: 4th
United’s average attendance: 35,667

In the 1960s…
City’s average league position: 18th
City’s average attendance position: 13th (3 years in Div 2 – positions not included)
City’s average attendance: 27,823
United’s average league position: 7th
United’s average attendance position: 2nd
United’s average attendance: 45,199

In the 1970s…
City’s average league position: 9th
City’s average attendance position: 6th
City’s average attendance: 35,178
United’s average league position: 11th
United’s average attendance position: 1st (1 year in Div 2 – position not included)
United’s average attendance: 48,328

In the 1980s…
City’s average league position: 20th
City’s average attendance position: 5th (4 years in Div 2 – positions not included)
City’s average attendance: 26,866
United’s average league position: 5th
United’s average attendance position: 1st
United’s average attendance: 43,090

In the 1990s pre Premiership/Sky…
City’s average league position: 8th
City’s average attendance position: 6th
City’s average attendance: 27,846
United’s average league position: 7th
United’s average attendance position: 1st
United’s average attendance: 42,654

EDITED: So, this is long before the glory fans rolled in. Even when United played at Maine Road after our stadium was being reconstructed following the bombing, more fans came to watch United play than City. So, what happened to all these Mancunians? Does it make any sense at all to believe that all these people coming to watch United in the 40’s changed allegiance and passed down a different team to their kids? Lunacy.
Regardless, it’s interesting to note that in City’s Europa Group stage match against Juventus, currently 9th in Serie A, only 35,212 fans bothered to show up, meaning the ground was less than 3/4 full.
The obvious excuse is the expense, however, with City all but giving their tickets away, in the vain hope of appearing to be the MASSIVE club they’d like to see themselves as, City fans could attend all three group stage matches for a total of £50, which works out at less than £17 a game. Tickets were on sale today for this game alone at just £10!
Useful information for the next time somebody tries to tell you all Mancs are blue.
Oh City are a massive club. http://therepublikofmancunia.com/all-mancunians-are-blue/

How long you were there? I stayed at Old Trafford doing my degree for 3 years. You can not be more wrong on your observation.

Would like to comment on Corez's post. When I was in Manchester for a visit, they were selling City kits at 50% the regular price.

Maybe u are at a particular location where there are more City fans than United. Greater Manchester is pretty big i would say. Or maybe psychological, other place u only see United fans and none City fans, and suddenly u reach Manchester and more people wearing blue, that will of course make you think "wah, there are more City fans here."
