I guess when a club has achieved so little in recent years that any little thing they do manage to win seems likea big achievement to the fans ![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
(joking)
Fair play to them, good result for them and british football, personally im a wolves fan, so i cant even remember what its like to win anything

I guess supporting a team is just about followin their progress (or lack of
) and caring about the results, not everyone has the luxury of being able to go to matches.
I know lots of "Formula one fans" who will never be able to afford to go to monaco etc
Im not really a follower of football anymore though anyway, but i did use to be at one point and it was wolves i supported then (since i was about 4 years old or so), and I used to go to watch as often as i could afford at the time for the 15 yers or so that i actively followed them (before i was working full time, so we are going back about a decade now)

chip theres a difference when formula 1 is sooo unaccesable to us poor people ( you dont count rich kid
)
if F1 was on every second week and ya never went then ya not a follower but watch it cause its on tv
following wining teams and then switching teams confuses the hell out of me

Do you support Chelsea or Arsenal at the moment out of interest??
Monaco F1 is soooo sweeeet Chip. Will put some photos up later! Chopper was cool, boat was awesome, cars SOOO loud. Parties are the best thing by a mile though. I met David Coultard in a nightclub and got him to sign a piece of paper for me... ok so that piece of paper happened to be a 500 Euro note

Surely if someone watches footy on the telly then they can still be a fan?
When i was younger, due to supporting wolves and living in somerset at the time, i VERY rarely got to watch them, but i genuinely was a very keen follower of them.
I dont think its fair to say people arent a supporter just cause they dont watch the team very often.
Cally (my girlfriend) is a life long Man Utd fan, and has even had the opportunity to be at wembley and watch them win an FA cup final as her dad got tickets due to being an FA referee, but if she wasnt lucky enough to have seen them like that, it wouldnt make her any less of a fan than becaus she did IMHO

i don't support Man Utd, but ive met the players a couple times, and my aunty used to WELL fancy Giggs and used to buy me all his merchandise to some how re-live her childhood fantasy
, and ive watched them play a dozen times or more and been to the FA cup in 93 (when they played against Liverpool funily enough and i was on the Liverpool side as my dads a Liverpool fan) but ive never supported one team as such, if i had to say one team now it'd be Wolves cus ive seen them play too and i have there footy shirt and cup at home!
(oh i mean your shirt Chip)

Oh well shows how much notice i take of you, i assumed that you supported them cause you went to watch them, lol
Still it goes to show what i was saying is true, that its not if you watch a team actually play or not that makes you a supporter i guess!
P.S
Either give that shirt back or at least have the decency to wear only that and some stockings in bed tonight

How do you not support them by watching on TV? By watching them on TV you're increasing the viewing rate which in turn adds to TV revenue which then gives your team a bigger financial profit because they let Sky etc televise their match. Football is a global sport and a business, the more support a club gets through out the world means more money, more money means better quality players, better quality players means a greater chance of being sucessfull in domestic and European/world competitions, which again, makes the club richer through gate reciepts, merchandise and TV revenue etc, not to mention increasing the fan base even more. Football clubs need as much support as they can, whether it be local, non local or foreign support, it doesn't matter, what matters is following and supporting your clubs progress and doing your best to benefit the club by buyiong the shirt etc.
Rant over.
Besides, if you live in Northern Ireland, you really don't want to watch our excuse for football, most players are only Semi Pro and hold normal jobs through the week.

Possibly, a fan is a fanatic ( sorry for being Captain state the obvious
), knows the history and whatnot, a supporter could be described as someone who just likes to see a team doing well. I'm definitely a Liverpool fan. Either way, regardless of what you are, you're still helping out the club and thats what counts.
