why is it that the english like winners, but not major winners?

in america it seems that everybody supports for the underdog, except when it's vogue to support the winners (like the yankees and lakers, WHO LOST! whoohooo!) but the british seem to support the better teams, but why hate manyoo or arsenal?

i'm interested. and incoherent.

[coct]

so if they like winners, but not major winners...surely these winners must be underdogs at some point?

Hate them? Jealousy, or just plain sense (in the case of scum united)

[Morals]

I thought this was about Michael Winner. Was thinking Calm down dear...

It's a good question though - I guess everybody hates the Manchester Scum because they're all *, and Alex Fergusson deserves a good shoeing, and everyone apart from peolpe with taste hates Arsenal because they're arrogant as *.

[Bridgie]

united are the best team and jealously makes people hate them because their teams lose to them.

agreed with morals that arsenal are the most arrogant * around and thats why everyone hates them. i think its more the fans i hate than the team though, although i do hate both.

[Adam]

oh calm down dear morals - its only football.

[MK Chris]

*Withholds the comment he was about to make about Manyoo fans being anywhere but Manc land.

Hypocrite? Nah, not me.

[Bridgie]

weve had this discussion before - both me and ad are from salford

[Lawrie]

i hate Man U cos Leeds hate Manchester threw many years of rivalry and there fans are pains..(only Bridgie!)

i soo wanted Southampton to win FA cup but it didnt happen

[Jonny Hoare]

i so wanted a plane to land on the arsenal dressing room, killing them all...

united are the best team and jealously makes people hate them because their teams lose to them.

United were still hated before they won anything largely cos they have always been a bunch of b*stards. i have nothing against arsenal but Wenger an Bergkamp are two of the most odious people ever to step foot on a football pitch. You always support the underdogs though cos its always funny seeing good sides lose (even better when it was madrid in europe an itv had already decided they had the trophy won).

[coct]

People like city, just coz they are lovely. United however are scummy fkers who need to be shot on sight.

Salford...

[Bridgie]

lol, too much time on your hands there topher.

[Adam]

No, Bloody Salford in Greater Manchester. The Salford where Paul Goals was created. The Salford I was created. Okay to be more exact I was born in Salford, but lived in Irlam. More a Surrey Boy of than Manchester Boy. Want it to stay like that as well

the americans with their lombardian ethic supporting the underdog??? catch yourself on

[MK Chris]

lol, too much time on your hands there topher.

What do you mean, I didn't go "oh lets look for another Salford" I used to cycle through Salford every day on the way to work.

Yeah, ok you're still right though.

[Jonny Hoare]

and the quay of course

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

The Salford where Paul Goals was created.

is paul goals any relation to Ihaveno Goals the little know chinese international. Li Tie on shortlist (no pun intended) for asian player of the year.... guffaw.

[Jonny Hoare]

is he like Qu Bo ( Now everybody salsa)

[Sidders]

Everybody only hates Sheffield United because they knocked everybody else out of the cup.

[Jonny Hoare]

I like sheffield united . I want them to win. Warnock is a god

[kendra k]

they're not the owls, now are they?

fecking winners.

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

is he like Qu Bo ( Now everybody salsa)

more like toda crossed with iverson (truely hell).

I hate sheffield united for many reasons not least: neil warnock, sean bean, neil warnock, crap football and neil warnock.

[MK Chris]

I think Neil Warnock is the subject me and Gaspode agree on most (except that we would both do anything in a skirt.) He is a cheating twat.

[Sidders]

Neil Warnock is an arse, but that doesn't stop me wanting United to go up.
