I'm sure most fans will because it is a common reaction. It's the same if someone were to 'kutuk' the car you were driving. You get offended. Seldom do you see Malaysian fans engage in friendly banter like in the UK. Everyone here takes it personally as though someone just insulted their mother.

And the irony would be that they would think that they're a hardcore fan. I personally feel they're immature. Winning and losing is part of everything in life.

To me; the most important criteria of being a hard-core fan would be a dedicated support to the team, but a belief in the club's principles (both football and non) as well.

As such, a fan who can admit when his team were outplayed and continues to support the team even though they're not winning anything is a hard-core fan for me.

I should know. I support a long list of losers. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Like I said; I support a long list of losers. They are; Wolves, Fulham, Middlesbrough.

If I'm not mistaken, I've met a hard core fan of Bournemouth. We have absolutely nothing to talk about, when it comes to football. biggrin.gif He does talk about memories about Frank Lampard Sr and Harry Redknapp though. biggrin.gif
