There's a big difference between wanting a particular team to win a particular game, and actually supporting that team.

Celtic and Rangers should never be any part of the English league pyramid.

Edit - replying to Wolfman

I entirely agree!

No idea how anyone can cheer that scumbag club.

How is it a scumbag team?

Because it was founded by Irish immigrants?
Or because some of their fans are scumbags?

I’d accuse Rangers fans of similar 
One no better than the other

Hate seeing politics or sectarianism on this forum tbh

Because they get every decision in every match?
Because their supporters inside Villa Park spent all match singing about terrorism?
Because they still claim to be the underdog?:
That politics for you,as mentioned Rangers are no different and it's what people have grown up in Scotland especially Glasgow unfortunately, with the Scottish government failing to address the issues

I agree, but for some reason Celtic are seen as the good guys.

Celtic are the good guys compared to Rangers, but only in the same way that Mussolini was alright compared to Hitler.

They're both utter twats, and if you're not from Glasgow and "support" them, then so are you.

I don't know if you've noticed, but supporting the Villa hasn't really been 'gloryhunting' fo a good long while.

If Villa win fifty league titles and people across Britain and Ireland pretend to support them just because they've won fifty league titles, then they would be twats. As that isn't the case, the comparison is worthless.

Right. Gloryhunting is a form of power-worship. It's serf mentality, fodder mentality. Not a good sign in a personality.

Supporting a club with 1 league title and 1 FAC in over 100 years is hardly the same as latching onto Rangers or Celtic.

Although we have won the trophy they most want to win more times than they have between them in the last fifty-nine years.

Its the sign of a whips and chains kink if anything. We're all masochists.
