If Torquay United were as successful as United have been over the past 20 years, several of the other United fans on EoFF (Loony BoB at the very least!) would be Torquay fans. I don't count you among that, though, I know you supported United before they became United plc and I don't mean disrespect to old-school fans like yourself when I say that. As for Liverpool fans, well, I started supporting us in the Graeme Souness era, the very beginning of a 20 year spell that has been the worst in LFC's history for success and glory, so I don't know how you can call me a glory hunter. What glory am I after? The thrill of competing for 3rd place? (even that's a distant memory) If I actually gave a I'd have jumped ship to United years ago.

Also, there's this story about World War II I'd like to relay to you. The US navy had recently overtaken the British navy as the biggest in the world, and a British ship was docked alongside an American one in port.

Cheeky yank captain sends a message "What's it like serving alongside the biggest navy in the world?" British captain sends one back "What's it like serving alongside the best?".

In the same way, there's a lot of clubs I think are better than United, even if they don't have anywhere near as many trophies. Hope this helps
Yes, I was there as a kid of the 80s getting abuse everyday from glory huntingf Liverpool fans. I made the mistake of following United for 2 reasons, first is because of the Irish connections in Whiteside, Stapleton, Moran, McGrath, Donaghy and of course Best, Whelan, Blanchflower etc of the old days. Secondly, my Uncle. My Da actually supported West Ham (lived in Islington in the 60s). I had to live off the odd FA Cup now & then while every little where I lived followed Celtic or Liverpool. I'm not calling you a glorty hunter but I'm saying if you live in a glass house don't throw stones. Liverpool's fanbase was built on their past successes. Most their fans now here & outside Liverpool that are over 35 could be labelled as such. Anyway I can't speak for Bob's motives or anyone else I just seen u label United fams as glory hunters and reacted.
