What is a "true fan" ?

[Goring Gull]

With all this waffle about true fans especially from some of those who seem to spend a lot of time on here when the Albion are in action - What is a true fan?

 

[algie]

Not you so piss off

Me

And is a true fan the same thing as a loyal supporter or a good punter?

 

[Wardy]

Plus you needed to have gone to

The FA Cup final
The FA Cup Final replay
The 1991 Play-off Final
Hereford in 1995
The 2004 Play-off Final

Oh and be against Mark McGhee

I miss out on three counts.

I went to the youth cup game at Newcastle on the Bobbler express now surely that makes me a true fan.......

Yes but only of the youth team

I think it is a bit like being married (from talking to those who are), you take on the Albion and foresake all others, for richer for poorer, better or worse until death do you part. Also you get as much as you can whenever you can, regardless of personal cost.

oh shit

Does watching AFC Wimbledon count and missing the Albion play

 

[Wardy]

Seriously to me a 'true fan' is one that stands by the club no matter what.

Is not afriad to say so in the pub when their mates are saying how great their team ( Aresnal / Chelsea / Man U) are.

In all we are the result they look for first. and if money, family life, time and distance allowed would go to every game home and away for all levels of the club.

no no no. That makes you a dork.

I know I'm a true fan because I couldn't give a monkey's what anyone thinks. I follow everything I can, and that's all you can ask

Says the ICF hammers wannbe.... oh dear , oh dear , oh dear

I'd define a true fan as someone who just gets on with the job of supporting his or her club in whatever way they want without sitting in judgement on anyone else.
