So if Manchester United moved to Charlton tomorrow it would be the same club?
Tbf I was correcting grammatical mistakes about three pages ago.
You know the vast majority of fans on this forum are not from Manchester. Easily 95%+, if not more. Given that you think it's odd that they're all Man Utd fans, it would appear to be extremely odd that you've spent hundreds and possibly thousands of hours engaging with them over a number of years.
I don’t agree with @Wumminator in regards to locals being more important/better fans or that it is odd to support a club that isn’t local to you because there are many different ways that connect us to clubs such as players, managers, owners, family etc. saying this, I also don’t agree with personally insulting or labelling people as xenephobic or racist because of this difference in opinion and most of you are smart enough to debate without resorting to such pettiness.
What has dyslexia got to do with bad grammar?With every poster that goes against me in this thread I look more obviously right.So dyslexics don't get to have a go?
So if you, for some reason, need to move to Italy, will you become a lesser supporter of the club?
Yes.
Do mistakes in English, which is not my first language of course, make me a lesser fan?
I tried to find her home residence but as is typical of the Hollywood and inferior Manchester United fan types, it was throwing all sorts of cities where she has houses soo I went with an obvious one but fair play, thats good info.
Fyi She was born in Atlanta. So she has to support Atlanta United only.
No, it makes you a lesser human
No you supporting literally two teams does. I thought we’d covered this.
You look more obviously wrong.
Go to games > fund Glazers > Glazers milk the club dry > Sells club > Qatar buys
Wumminator helped Qatar owned United. Which I kinda appreciate

The irony is that the club's key employees; past or present are mainly foreign -- the managers (Scottish, Norweigian, German to Dutch with a couple of English ones), current or past players; the break-out star, Ganarcho ... doesn't exactly like he sound like he's from Moss Side.
This whole top, top-fan argument is just silly.
Oh so you cant possibly support 2 teams. I get it.
We havent covered anything.
They're all lesser fans cause they havent been born in Manchester, obviously.
I mean… no? You can’t?
What?No, it makes you a lesser human
Oh right, Wumminator says you can't so.
Thanks for popping in. Say Hi to Barbara and the kids.
I can’t believe I’m having to explain why supporting two clubs isn’t the done thing.
You absolutely can not have the posterchild in this thread for “foreign fans mean just as much as local fans” then transpire to support another club in his home town as well.
You seem like a nice poster but you literally make my point.
Wumminator's law: The intensity of emotion you feel is inversely proportional to the distance from the entity you feel the emotion for.
can the law named after me be something along the lines of “something called Manchester United might somehow be related to Manchester.”
I don't think a hierarchy of fans is conducive to anything relating to United, it literally goes against what "United" means, it's irrelevant what "Tier" of fan you are, a fan is a fan and we all contribute by whatever means our financial, timing & geographical realities allow, I'd rather see us unite and genuinely discuss what's best for the club rather thank rank each other.
Sure mate. Whatever rocks your boat.
Hold up ,
We better tell the players that aren’t from Manchester that they aren’t real Manchester United players and only Marcus gets that prestigious honour.
It’s laughable that a global club considered “the biggest in the world” has fans that think you’re only a real fan and are somehow more important if you’re from Salford.
Where does it end?
Actually I live 500m from OT AND I go local chippy every Friday - I am more IMPORTANT.
But wait old Jerry who thinks we should get Sir Alex back and lives down the road from Carrington has supported the club for 50 years and been to 2 games but is always down pub on a Sunday afternoon actually knows what’s best for the club.
All these arguments are absolutely absurd.
I don’t know why in big 2023 there is a discussion about where our own fans come from or who’s more important.

Six new pages since I last visited thinking there may be an update...How wrong I was!
We're talking about Qatar.
I am sure like you, I would also be upset if my country of birth and the country I have resided since childhood were to purchase a football club. However, Qatar is a special case and a vast majority of its people will be proud if they managed to buy the club.
I personally think it's a bad financial investment from a monetary perspective just like the World Cup. I would also point out that as a Muslim myself money would be better utilised and the reward would be immense in the hereafter if Qatar spent its wealth on building hospitals and schools and helped those lesser of in the world.
On your last point, I do now think football has now become a commodity - not to fans, but certainly to those wanting to profit in some form from owning a club.

Thats incorrect. You have to be born in Manchester and live less than 1 mile from the club. Otherwise you are a lesser fan.
Until the so called family joined an online forum.
Even by the standards of this thread, the last few pages have been a waste of bandwidth
Even some of the players are lesser fans than some of the posters on here.
Got curious now who is the biggest fan we have amongst the players (born closest to OT).
What if you're born in London but move to Manchester?
Fecking hell I had 10 new pages and thought that something had happened. What a waste of time.
