Well not accoring to several friends I have in Manchester, my sister lives in Manchester also and says most hardcore mufc fans she knows were so disgusted at the increasing commercilisation of the club and the glazer takeover that they have quit OT and now watch other clubs but mostly FCUM.

I wouldn't call any fan who stopped watching Man Utd to watch FCUM a true fan. Yes, the Glazers have taken over much to the disappointment and anger of us fans. But to jump ship and support another football team for non footballing reasons is stupid. The true fans will support Man Utd through thick and thin, not leave altogether because they don't like some of the decisions being made at Old Trafford.

Hardcore, yeah, you could call them hardcore, hardcore *******s.

Pfft a contrived reply. Most lifetime Manchester based MU fans feel let down and alienated by the total comercialisation of MU, hence most true fans have looked elsewhere, leaving the prawn sandwich brigade and the glory seekers who travel in.

but we were commercialised years ago when we floated on the stock exchange, one of the first to get kit sponsors etc...

so are they leaving because of commercialisation, or because we dont win as much as we used to? dont sound like true fans tbh.

Got to agree. You support the team through thick and thin. Just because the club seeks more money from commercialism doesnt mean you go elsewhere. There is only one MUFC. Does that mean that you move allegiance because the club fals to buy new players. No it doesnt. Yes many will air their views as they have done here but they still support the team.
 
exactly, at the end of the day, i dont like every move the club makes, but thats only because i am passionate about them and want to see them doing so well. hence u get a lot of heated opinions and stuff going back and between the fans because they care so much about the club and what is happening to it.

switching alliegencies wont really help the club as far as i can see.

You're all missing the point, and clearly aren't aware of it in the first place.

Location: Belfast lol.

How can you say that people that had supported man u in manchester for years are 'glory supporters'?

Its what happens on the pitch that makes fans feel how they feel about the club, not what goes on behind the scenes. Some may not agree with it but at the end of the day you support a team based on your love for football, not what happens with the suits. The football is still there, and thats what the real fans care about.

People who "gave up" (fickle people) supporting united when the glazers took over we're naive to do so, we havn't gone down hill, nothing major has changed, the only difference is that Fergie seems to be a little too cautious with transfers these days after a few flops.

Sounds more like a bunch of people following the 'trendy thing to do'.

Regardless of the club, any TRUE fan will stick with it through everything.

So footballs not a global game. You have fallen into the disillusion that only manchester born people can supprt MU. Does that mean only players who are born in Manchester can play for the club. Lol. :rolleyes:

No sorry that wasn't my point, which I know you won't get. Seriously you're all missing the point totally and obviously haven't a clue.

So what happens when FCUM make decisions that these supporters dont agree with then they can simply move allegiance again...

I don't know i can't see into the future based on rather banal hypothetical situations

BTW ripper i don't agree that what happens on the pitch is the be all and end of of football, and that is an extremely strange statement for a suposed man u fan.
