Justify glory hunting? Thats not exactly what I'm trying to do. I'm saying that the glory draws fans, you know it, I know it. Now I have no doubt you are an upstanding Chelsea fan, and I'm sure Chelsea's glory did not draw you into the fan base, but lets just say for a moment it did. Now if it did, then tell me, what is wrong with that? The only problem I can see is if you changed your allegiances like socks.
As far as I can see you have two types of loosely grouped fans. You've got your fans who are die hard. They've followed their club forever and would never think of supporting another club the same way. Then, you've got your slightly below average fan. He supports his team, but he doesn't have the same passion for his team.
According to the general vibe, someone who was drawn to the club by its glory (not a glory hunter - the name implies he has been drawn to several clubs) cannot be a member of the first group. That's a load of tosh.
I would personally like to see the breakdown of the fan base of the top clubs. I would wager that a good percentage of Arse, Chelsea, and United fans are not glory hunters or fan boys. I would wager that they would never dream of changing their team. However, if you took a realistic view on things, not every die hard was born and bred United.
I am not justifying changing teams left and right based on their performances. What I'm saying is this - what is the problem with choosing a favorite team? Glory is a factor. Grant you, I'm not saying the only reason to support a club is their glory. You've got to know the history, the team, the tradition.

Tell me why that justifies a response, this being my second post or not.
it was my mistake then since I agree with that 
) inferior to Jose's men. But Chelsea have dropped points, and who could have foreseen it? Here's hoping to a 2007 Premier League trophy, but you never know what around the corner. United are heavily reliant on Ronaldo, and if he were to go down long-term, the tables may be turned dramatically. Chelsea have done well to stay up with their own injury crisis, but you wonder what would happen if Drogba was out of the picture.
