I disagree. I support other teams. But that doesn't stop me enjoying the opposition too. UK team plays, I generally watch. If they play a big team, I enjoy both teams. If opposition plays well, I enjoy that that.

And yes, if man utd lose, I enjoy it. But more for it being a surprising result, as those type of games interest everyone. I would react the same if it happened to Barcelona, Madrid etc

I try not to worry what others think of my team(s). I am often a harsher critic at times.
