TYPES OF FANS 1. The bandwagoner: This is the type of fan that supports the top team at that current time. Example: At this time that fan is probably a huge Bayern Munich fan (Possibly Dortmund). 2. The cynic: This is a fan who expects the worst to happen to their team and tends to focus on the negative aspects of their team. Example: After 10 minutes into the match “We are going to lose this game! Oh no look at that!” 3. The denier: This fan will never admit that his team has performed badly or is ever in trouble, to them their team is the best no matter what. 4. The aggressive fan: This is the type of fan that will swear profusely, raise his voice and start fights. You can insult this person’s car, house or family but don’t you EVER insult his team. 5. The manager fan or fanager: This fan believes that they should be the manager of their team and will contrast the coach’s decisions of formations and substitutions. 6. The hater: This is a fan that would rather jump with glee at their rivals losses than cheer their own team. 7. The seasonal fan: This is the type of fan whose mood is dependent on the form of their club.

The optimist: This is a fan who expects everything to go well and only sees the positive in their team. 9. The crazy fan: This fan breaths their team.

The no fan: These “fans” are simply people who attend a match or watch a game but have actually no idea who or why they are supporting a team. You tend to never see them again. 15. The influencer: This fan tries to get everyone they know to support their team and get as involved into the team as they are. 16. The superficial fan: These are fans that support a team simply for a player’s looks. Examples: Real Madrid for Ronaldo, Manchester United for Beckham, Arsenal for Fabregas etc. 17. The noob: Now this fan can be broken down into 2 subtypes: They will either be hesitant to make any comments as they are not yet confident in their opinions or they will pretend and act like they know everything.
