I suppose it's just the easiest thing to do lah... especially to those who barely watch the sport... they just want to pick a team for the sake of being "in the crowd". A strong, winning team is a reason good enough for many. I guess only the more dedicated fans will take the trouble to find a deeper reason to support a team and to learn more about them.

This not only applies to football... there were also a lot of Ferrari "fans" some years back and they know nuts about cars except that Schumacher wins every race!

In general I've nothing against glory hunters, coz they will always be around. The only thing that gets me is the gloating lah - what gives you the right to make so much noise when you barely know your own team, while I've supported my own team through thick and thin for over 15 years!

Comon, altogether now, sing with me!
"Glory, glory, glory hunter... glory glory glory hunter..."

Here's something to ponder.

Can anyone here name ONE player in our Malaysian national team? What's the result of our last international game?

I'll bet only a few, if any, can answer that. Aren't we all glory-hunters then, for supporting teams half the world away but turn our backs against our own teams?

Btw - the answer to the 2nd question, is against the UAE back in January in KL. They canned us 5-0. Sadly, I cannot answer question #1.
