solid glory hunter - i am 20 years old, but my club has won 1234 trophies, but i did not watch them lift any trophy before. but still my team damn good! i will support them forever, support my arse, this is a solid bandwagon jumper

and yes we are ALL somewhat glory hunters in our own ways, thats a fact.
but its minimal compare to the above^
like one of you guys mentioned, we dont support MU Chelsea Liv Ars for nothing, this 4 teams simply was at top flight football over the past 10-20 years, that lead us in supporting them.
same goes or other sports, eg: F1 Michael Schumacher
basketball etc etc

i hate people who brag about their club winning 123456 trophies, yes it is something to be proud of... but not till the extent of bragging it till now, those that brag about it probably your father did not even had the chance to witness such moments.
imo,the present champions should be the one getting the utmost respect and deserve some bragging rights aka Chelsea.

arguably, the most glory hunter at the moment falls into MUFC fan's
simply because they were overall dominant side over the decade, altho chelsea is picking up the pace now. i wished my Arsenal could find their way this season tongue.gif
but its a good thing of course to have a lot glory hunters, the more glory hunters for your clubs means your club is doing good in reality, but then its a nuisance to layan them when they speak peanuts laugh.gif

What if those so called glory hunter don't jump ship even after Arsenal don't dominate BPL anymore? They stick to Arsenal. Still call glory hunter?
What I want to say here is that everything must have a initial, defining moment. A reason. I am sure alot of us here start supporting their club because of something, and winning trophies is one of the reason ppl start supporting their club. This doesn't make them a glory hunter, but how is their affection to the club's up and down does. smile.gif

you are being extremist,
what i said touches only a part of glory hunter as a whole, if you put things to that extreme that they have to jump ship everytime a new club wins
thats the ulimate glory hunter that you meant i guess.

o haiyo i guess you have mistaken my point
glory hunter has a few levels
we are probably the best of the worst in glory hunter category
a bad one eg (well to Arsenal fan's) - beandy
and arguably the worst - leeyawk of barcelona
do you get where i am heading now?

Today is a Classic Example with all the Cat. 1 & Cat 2 Glory Hunters ( over 90% as Yukieliow articulated so strongly) coming out
'Gloating & Jeering ' for United's loss & likewise prior to that Arsenal's Draw.

A typical example to quote from a Wolves fan

hmm, im a glory hunter
i remember the reason i started to support Arsenal was when they won the FA Cup at which 199x year laugh.gif i cant even tell what year was that rclxub.gif i only remember nineteen ninety something
was to young to really know about football, but they won! and i saw anelka..he looks awesome back then, but not any more now tongue.gif
then i straight support them, right up till now

but i was a MU supporter before i turned Arsenal, i remember i bought the MU sticker book , got stickers of gary pallister and brian kidd sweat.gif
and then i realize that i supported them base on influence, media, people,everything.
i have to admit during my child days it was an on thing talking about MU
as though there was only 1 club in the world, then slowly got to know more teams.
there were arguably to many MU supporters, pusing kanan langgar MU supporter satu, pussing kiri langgar MU supporter 2
wanting a change also plays a part i guess,
opted for the Gunners , i guess i made a bad jump to the wrong club from MU fan's POV laugh.gif
heres hoping theres an end to the draught this season icon_rolleyes.gif

so if i were to rate myself by my own definition of glory hunter, yes i am a glory hunter
prob the right way to address my situation is that, i *kick start* myself as a supporter/fan through the process of glory hunter
if it wasnt for them winning the FA Cup,and if i did not on the TV and ter bump into them..i wouldnt even know who the f Arsenal is
