Would You Join a Group for a Club that You Hate?
Thoughts, stupidity August 6th, 2008
I might be wrong and against a lot of people but i don’t think it’s a good idea. I’ve just checked my email and got this invitation to join an Anti Chelsea group at a one of the biggest football social networking site i’ve joined last year.
I rejected the invitation, why? First and foremost, I only like Manchester United. I don’t even enjoy watching football if there’s no connection with Manchester United. It’s good, that i am a fan of a great club. But in other side, i hate any other club in this planet, especially when they become opponent of Manchester United. The question is, how many Anti This and That group should i join to express my feeling about those football clubs? Second, i don’t rate Chelsea that much i don’t think i should join a club dedicated to Chelsea.
I didn’t use the site well since i don’t feel or need to commute with other football fan except with Manchester United fans. It’s like a religion to me, so why debating my beliefs? There’s no need to discuss your beliefs with somebody that don’t have the same faith with you. Everything ManUtd do is wrong for them, and everything they do is wrong for me. So what’s the point of discussion? I believe not every ‘discussion’ is good though. Sometimes you just need to go for it and do your own way.
Note to this. Several people in any given times stop by this blog and express they hate of our club. It doesn’t bother me really because i also hate their favorite clubs. So what. However, some of these morons even show their hate by having some antimanu or antimanutd domains (seriously). Well, in other side that is why i become a fan of Manchester United. There’s no grey area for Manutd, you’ll hate or love United. But all in all, i will never buy antirealmadrid or antiarsenal or maybe fuckbregas.com to show my hate to other club. Well maybe if i’m drunk because it’s so easy purchasing things in the internet, but even if i end up buying these stupid domains because i’m so drunk, i won’t use it as soon as i got sober. Well, maybe i will park it since i spent my money already 
.
In conclusion it’s so stupid and a waste of time. Go support your team goddammit or shut up.

Hiya, I totally agree with what you say. For example, I have come across this blog all about hating man united (http://www.hatemanutd.co.uk), what they come up with is rubbish.
I am not going to join any anti whatever blog because I am dedicated to manchester united not any other club.

I agree, I wouldn’t join a hate group either. I thought that these days of hate were over but perhaps I am living under a shell. I can grasp the concept of hate when opponents meet on the pitch but to take it to social networking sites, in my opinion, is just childish.

Hmmm. I guess my opinion will not go down too well here! Anyway here goes…. I support my lower league team with passion and the England national team likewise. However due to the fact my team are not on TV day after day I need an angle to go with. I’m not into the concept of a “second team” so I choose to hate a team and thus find and angle to the matches on TV. Why go to the trouble to blog it I here you ask. To provoke a bit of banter, just like this. Fun isn’t it?

Your opinion is welcome. It’s your motif and it’s your money and time you waste. Your blog only make Manchester United even bigger. That’s the point of the post anyway.
