It’s a disgrace!

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Bellamy is pelted with what seemed like coins and bottles before taking a corner, the corner is eventually taken and Man Utd break away to score. Does the TV commentary even hint at the possibility of player intimidation. No. Cheat to win the Carling Cup semi final? Yes.

 Note: written in real time before the final result was known.

Carling Cup: Manchester United 3 v 1 Manchester City

Manchester United fan a disgrace

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

A Manchester United “fan”paid £55 for his team’s kit printed with 96, the number of people killed at Hillsborough, YSB standing for You Scouse B*****ds and the words “Not Enough”. A clear dig at rivals Liverpool. Then proceeded to put photos on Facebook. This has been generally condemned by all football supporters including, to their credit, Manchester United fans at ManUnitedDevils. Obviously at Hate Man Utd we condemn this inhumane gesture. This website is aimed at poking fun at Manchester United and everything that there is to hate about them. However, derogatory references to the Munich air disaster or other extreme types of hatred are not tolerated here. Indeed we strive to keep the content suitable for a family audience (after all we want kids to be put off supporting Man Utd!).

Man Utd fan joke

The road to Rome starts in Blackburn!

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Did anyone else see the  “news story” on BBC breakfast TV which featured a bunch of Manchester United fans setting off to Rome in a camper van???? You can imagine the bosses at the  BBC sending out the camera crew to Manchester to find some fans and capture this story. At what point did that camera crew panic and end up in Blackburn to find some travelling fans!!!!! :)

Oh yeah, doesn’t Blackburn have it’s own Premier League team ;)

Manchester United Fan Psychology

Saturday, May 2nd, 2009

Is supriority complex the reason so many people become a fan of Manchester United. Read the information in the link and make up your own mind. I’m no expert or student of psychology but I’d love to hear from such (via the comments) to provide an expert judgement.

Prawn sandwich brigade

Prawn sandwich brigade.  Maybe old news but deserves a mention following the lack of support for Man Utd at home v Spurs when loosing 2-0 and the booing of Berbatov by Man Utd fans for the poor penalty v Everton in the FA cup semi final.

Sing when you’re winning v Spurs

Saturday, April 25th, 2009

Spurs are 2-0 up at Old Trafford and the place resembles a morgue. Man Utd fan went silent - no passion, no support, the fans just turn up expecting to be entertained. Enter Howard Webb and a dodgy penalty decision to get the crowd interested. Man Utd go on to win :(

Disgrace all round.

PFA biased to Man Utd

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

 The nominees for the PFA player of the year have only one non Man Utd player in the list. That player being Liverpool’s Steven Gerrard.

The full list being: Cristiano Ronaldo, Ryan Giggs, Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic, Edwin van der Sar and Steven Gerrard.

This is a plain case of bias. Please comment if you could name a player who has been over looked. In the meantime, lets hope Gerrard wins!

A quick note to regular visitors to this site. There have been no updates due to holidays and a bombardment of SPAM comments. Whilst on holiday we had some fun at the expense of a “Man Utd fan” in a continental bar, he had a Man Utd shirt on. He claimed to support them because “they are the best team” (sic). When questioned he had not been to any games. An individual with no loyalty to his home town or country and likely to swap his “support” when another team become the best. Well done to FC Porto who scared Man Utd in the Champions League Quarter finals (but alas did not win in the end). And it sounds like there is a new “wonder kid” to keep an eye on :(

Manchester United and Glory Hunters

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

A recent posting on Man United Devils blog about Glory Hunters has inspired this posting! The blog article discusses Man Utd “fans” who don’t live in Manchester or the surrounding area which are often called glory hunters, because they don’t support their local team. That blog’s stance is they do not agree, you will not be surprised at Hate Man Utd blog supports the idea that the majority of Man Utd fans are glory hunters, read on to hear the evidence.

A quick search of the Internet revealed plenty of details on the definition of Glory Hunter.

A glory hunter is a term used by people who are jealous of another persons team success , or who are suspect to, supporting a particular football club due to its size, quality and/or popularity in the media.

It is the latter point which is particularly relevant to Man United fans; supporting a team due to it’s size and popularity in the media. People with an inferiority complex in normal life feel they need to associate them selves with some thing big and popular, so they feel that “they belong”. As for popularity in the media, how many pages per day in a tabloid national newspaper are dedicated to Man utd; 1,2,3??? Not to mention the amount of TV coverage, not just live matches but on Breakfast TV as well, for example.

Manchester United v Blackburn Rovers

The media: responsible for the Glory Hunters.

 The article on the Internet goes on to state:

“Glory hunters usually live outside the town or area where a particular team is from, and may, in fact, live in a different country altogether. It is common for a person from a town to support their nearest most successful club as opposed to their actual town’s team. Manchester United have by far the most supporters of any English club, not only within England, but worldwide. This is due in part to their domestic and European success coming simultaneously with the introduction of televised European Cup football in the mid-1950s. Manchester United’s second coming coincided with the huge increase in the amount of televised football due to the introduction of satellite broadcasting in the early 1990s.”

With the availability of replica shirts and other merchandise, the concept of ‘the glory-hunter’ has evolved. And we all know how many Man Utd shirts we see worn on the streets of our Towns and Cities, don’t we?

Availability of merchandise - too wide spread.

 The article goes on to describe Second Generation Glory Hunters:

“People who are, or who are suspect to, supporting a successful football club although having no obvious affiliation with the team and giving their reason for supporting such team as it also being their fathers chosen team. Second generation glory hunters usually live outside the town where a particular team is from, and may, in fact, live in a different country altogether.”

Man United fans Hate Paul Ince!

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Much to my amusement I’ve found something, or more accurately someone that Manchester United fans hate - Paul Ince. Apparently it stems back to when he was playing for Liverpool and celebrated a goal against Man Utd (how dare he!). Enjoy these pictures :-)
