Earned indeed. You can tell the difference between real fans and plastics. "Banter" is a word almost invented for them.

During last season, whenever we dropped points, I would get texts off people I know who "support" Liverpool boasting that the league was theirs. This season, I haven't sent a single one back as they've turned to shit during January.

They do it because they want to feel a part of something but in truth, it has nothing to do with them. They're from East Yorkshire for fuck's sake, not Knotty Ash.

When we won the league at Brighton, I was so relieved. I spent the following hours, I sent tons of texts out to my Dad, my step brother, my cousin and any other blues I had in my phone. Not for a second did I consider texting a pretend Liverpool fan.

I think I'm a year older than you. I remember being in and around United fans throughout the 90's when they were the best team around. My mates would be jetting off to Valencia or Turin and I'd be looking forward to Colchester at the weekend. They were genuine reds though and always respected my loyalty to City. I was happy that lads I grew up with got to watch their team win the European Cup live - just not happy that it was United if that makes sense.

I'm on a rant now but go to any town outside of Manchester or Liverpool and as you said on a previous post, every town has them. Ask them why they support Liverpool and it's always "I saw them on telly when I was a kid and just loved them."

Now, correct me if I'm wrong but I remember Forest, Luton, Tottenham and Everton being on loads in the late 80's but these fuckers all seem to have tuned in to ITV when Liverpool were on.

Cunts all of them.

You’ve not encountered the Luton Massive Manc Chapter? There’s a large enclave in Openshaw. Handy lads they are too.

Think I've counted 4/5 games now where mane shouldn't have finished a match. Either straight reds or 2/3 yellow cards a match. By far 1 of the most dangerous players in the league also the snidiest. Yet if it actually happens he gets a red (will need to literally decapitate someone), the dippers will scream foul play/conspiracy. Horrible, nasty little cheating unflushable turd.

Needs a visit from Andy Morrison.

He is the worst. It's a shame he's Scottish because I'm half-Scottish and having that obnoxious little berk on the team puts me off. I remember one time he fouled Tom Davies and laughed at him because he knew he'd get away with it.

I remember it. He’s a proper little shithouse. I’d love to stamp on his face!

...and lets face it, if it'd kicked off on the pitch because of his actions, the sniveling shithouse would have run and hid behind dickie van dyke... van dyke's injury has got to be the leading cause for the lack of humpback robertson throwing opposition players into the advertising boards this season.

This all day long.
I was at school during the 80s in North Manchester and the number of plastic scousers in my school was unbelievable.
Sad, spineless, insecure glory hunting losers basking vicariously in something they've contributed fuck all towards in a bid to feel part of something successful.
I used to work with another plastic scouser 4 or 5 years back, was always mithering me for Champions League tickets whenever we played Real, Barca, Bayetn etc. as they were too shit to qualify but said fuck all otherwise.
Last season started giving it Billy big bollocks with his WhatsApp messages over the league positions and the uefa ban (yes the lack of self awareness really is on another level with these shithouses) so I gave the **** both barrels about him being a plastic glory hunter and fucked him off.
I could easily give it him back with interest but won't waste my time on the twat as he's not a real fan in my eyes.
Like you, I'll give it and take it with real fans but won't waste my time with plastics

... they love to go on about how nobody gives a toss about us and how people would rather us win the league than other teams because its easier to take... its easier to take when we win because by and large (and yes every club has some steaming turds in its support) we have supporters who celebrate victories for what they mean to us... not as a means of belittling other clubs. I'm too young to remember, but I'm sure the same was true when we were successful in the late 60s / early 70s as it would explain why our support was always generally well regarded across the country.

The out-of-town plastics’ entire “support” of these two football clubs (and it is generally these two and definitely only these two in huge numbers, there’s the odd fans of other clubs dotted about randomly but often through family ties or where they themselves have moved away from the area) are through a television or online life.

They don’t wake up in the morning and breathe the air or live the culture of the city their football club comes from and represents them as a person. I always think of them as people with pretty sad lives or are embarrassed of their own locality, its local culture and football teams so they latch on to something that makes them think they have some reflected glory in their lives, so they choose United or Liverpool no matter where they’re from. They don’t even choose their closest big club, they just pluck either of the two most successful clubs in the country and think “yeah they’re the ones for me, they’ll make me look great and I can take the piss out of everyone else because this football club I’m choosing is the most successful, they’ve got no comeback!”.

Only for them to crawl under a rock or come out with that brilliant line “yeah, well I’m just not interested in football anymore” when either of these two clubs go on a slump. But then you see them back in full kit with shin pads, the lot, as soon as they start winning again.

They’ve not got a clue about what supporting a football club is about. Their entire emotional input to football is on social media comments sections. I couldn’t do that for life, it’s done my head in over this pandemic. I’ve never felt more disconnected from City in my life and I live and work around the city.

Imagine what the locals in these places who do support their local clubs think about these plastic bellends. They’ll be off to watch their local team at 15:00 on a Saturday afternoon, a club that might have financial difficulties and a half empty stadium every week, only to go back to their local pub afterwards and be faced with a pub chocka-block full of Liverpool or United fans watching their 17:30 game.

I’ve never pulled back the doors of The Wheatsheaf off Tib Street on a Saturday afternoon and had a pub full of Luton fans who are all Mancunians there watching them on the tele. And even if that did happen, they’d be chased out of the pub and sent on their way.

I went to West Ham away once and got chatting to a few Hammers who said “yeah we obviously hate all the other London clubs but we hate Man U as much as you lot do, there’s that many of them round here that they’re probably our biggest local rivals”. And you could see that vitriol steam of out them in that final game at Upton Park against the Rags.

Another one that gets me n’all, is those from other countries who latch onto these clubs... and in their thousands upon thousands! Imagine how good their countries’ leagues would be if all these plastics actually supported clubs in their own country. Instead of going down the pub (some places even have fan parks there’s so many of them) to watch United and Liverpool, they could spend their money on their local clubs making their own leagues miles better. Again, you don’t get them supporting Cheltenham Town do you? And you don’t open the doors to the Wheatsheaf to a pub full of Cork City or Yokohama Marinos or even Canterbury Bulldogs fans do you?

I don’t get it me, never have and never will.

I’m a big rugby league fan and the NRL is the top league of rugby of either code in the world, I watch it every week, but I don’t have a club I’ve chosen to support. And I’ve even got family ties there as I have one cousin that lives in Manly and one that lives in Brisbane. But I don’t “support” either of these clubs.

Apart from on here when I do spout general pisstaking aimed at United and Liverpool, and in the ground when I’m like a rabid dog... I too never bother taking the piss or boasting to any United or Liverpool fans I know over text or owt. It’s like stooping down to their level, and becoming part of that plastics’ way of supporting their football clubs.

My mate is a Liverpool fan, born and bred Newton Heath lad. He would have been about 7 last time they won the league. Now fair play to him as he has taken shit his entire life as he literally is the only Liverpool fan round here. To this day none of us know why he supports Liverpool as all his family are rags. But he has to take loads of abuse his entire life, even off us blues when we were crap, but his support has never wavered. Fair play to him, he has not tried indoctoring his young daughters, who are both now blues.

We had a lad in our street (Albert Gardens) in Newton Heath, who was a Dipper fan too. This will have been early 70's, City and the rags were both doing well then, so why he followed them I have no idea. But likewise we gave him grief in spades.

I know a few who do. I am Everton but I will cheer on City unless you play us, but to support outright?
