Thank you Blue.

I can sort of understand why Asenal, Spurs, and l'pool fans may sink to such sad depths, because they have nothing else to shout about. Little or no recent success, very distant past success; one of the few things that helps them feel better about themselves is to belittle others and claim they are big/bigger clubs.

However there is no need for United fans to stoop so low, we are in a privilaged position with no need to abuse that position.

I suspect some say this of Chelsea because they constantly pose a threat, something that Arsenal have not been for several years!

personally i like to be, like yourself more passive and logical when it comes to football.

i am not a fan of wumming, bit of banta is fine but further than that is just silly.

one of my first articles on here was asking people to say something nice about another club... some did and some got the knives out....

it is nice to see a fan of another club (rival club at that)
who you can have a football convo with and not just back and forth point scoring.

good luck tonight!

I think any team's fans who feel the need to chant "we support our local team" constantly at OT during their annual visit can quite comfortably consider themselves as representing a 'small' club.

Can someone who claims to support man utd please tell me what is a small club!

Perhaps whiteside has a point, perhaps the smaller clubs are the ones that don't catch the attention and/or support of people from a wider circle, nationally or internationally. However I still don't find we gain any qudos by belittling other clubs!
