Society & Culture Things that Shit me part X- The Tenth edition!

[Cruyff14]

I ain't going back to the Soccer forum until

A) This season, a club other than Liverpool wins
or
B) Their celebrations/taunting have died down a bit

Yeah but you're a gloryhunter too/fairweather supporter, so it's to be expected.

The passion of a supporter is measured by how often said supporter visits the Soccer board of BigFooty?

Only someone who knows they're a gloryhunter would use that as a defence.

This is too easy.

Don't really think you can be a gloryhunter supporting Swansea. They have never won any major trophies that I can remember. Didn't even know they weren't from England until they got promoted lol

Here I am thinking that watching the games each week classifies me as a real supporter. Only to find out that I have to post on Bigfooty to get my rep up on the interwebz. Dem feels

Well you support St Kilda, so I don't think it's possible for you to be one even if it is another sport

Dem accusations only come in when you support 2 vastly superior clubs like mwa

Except the league cup last year mate Don't even ask me how I started supporting Swansea. But, that also wasn't my point. You were talking about the passion of a supporter, not specifically about glory hunting, despite that being the conversation root

Accusations do usually come in at this point!

Mate the Mighty Manchester United have already won the Community Shield this year. Already a successful year. The rest of it has been a bit of a blur. I support Manchester United because I looked at the ladder one year and am like "Hmmm they are top, I will support them.....until they become shit". But let's be honest there's no chance of becoming shit when you have an A-grade manager like David Moyes

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

I started supporting united becuase i liked Beckham and Van Nistlerooy, also the red white and black banners did also sway my mind as a kid.

When I was born, and therefore made an Essendon supporter, we had won 14 premierships. One behind Carlton at that point. Reload and try again glory hunter.

I wouldn't know half the European geography I do if it wasn't for soccer

Visited Swansea once...cold windy joint.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

Gerrard was actually the sole reason for I went for Liverpool. I love that man ever since I was 11

Full of smack heads too, the valleys were awash with gear last time I was there.

When I was born Hawthorn only had 9. According to my Dad's mate who is a mid 50's Saints fan, I am very lucky. Which might be correct but most of my first memories of them are poor. 2003-2006 were not our finest moments.....
On a serious note though, I have never known anyone to be a "gloryhunter/bandwagoner". Do people actually change teams when theirs is shite? I can't fathom how anyone could. So much so that I still support the Perth Glory over either Melbourne clubs because I supported them in the old NSL. No idea why. Not that I follow it that closely but yeahhhhh probably not my best choice. #Unique #Glory4Lyfe

Don't actually mind Gerrard. It's that Karmichael Hunt Suarez I can't stand.

I moved to the UK that year. Liam Gallagher and Patsy Kensit were on the cover of Vanity Fair the month I arrived. Roaring days.
