Major Bumpkin DSO 0 Posted June 29, 2009 Very insightful.... I haven''t bothered to look at it, if truth be known, just felt sorry for the poor schlep who''d penned it (I''m guessing there won''t be a follow up?) so thought I''s start of the tidal wave of appreciative posts.

Lambo 0 Posted June 29, 2009 I thought it was a good read actually, interesting way of looking at it.Although i don''t think a club from Norfolk who plays in yellow and green and are nicknamed "The Canaries" will ever be thought of as cool lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Saturday Boy 0 Posted June 30, 2009 Yes - I''m afraid unless you support the team local to where you grew up, at least local professional team, then you are a glory hunter. If you start supporting a team because they are successful, that makes you a glory hunter. All Leeds fans from outside west yorkshire are still glory hunters in my book, no matter how crap Leeds are now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that is the case then i would be supporting Arsenal.Or to a lesser extent Watford or Luton.Or even Spurs like my brothers,who could hardly be classed as glory hunters!Most people support Norwich because a) They are from there,b)they have family from there or c)some really obscure,tenuous reason,not because of our trophy cabinet!!Your second sentence is spot on.I grew up through the 70/80''s and had loads of schoolfriends who supported Liverpool![:@] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Major Bumpkin DSO 0 Posted August 12, 2009 It''s even worse than the first one and that is saying something!I haven''t read either of them, of course., I just have a dislike of blogs - how vain do you have to be to assume that anyone else couyld give a monkey''s chuff about your views. And as for Twitter.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was born in Norwich, but my parents moved when I was 18months old to the north. I grew up in Wigan. Does that mean I should support Wigan?! I don''t think so. Norwich is my team, and always will be, no matter where I live. Simple as that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
