Again, I didn't say it was just Man Utd.
There's nothing wrong with having supporters clubs around the country. As I said, people don't live and die in the same street anymore. If I moved to Manchester, i'd still passionately support Spurs.
What's wrong, and a blight on football are little kids who choose what team to support by looking at a results table or because of one charismatic player. What if everyone supported the same team? The future of football relies on diverse, geographical support for all teams.

Man Utd fans aren't going to complain. They've done very well with the financial support of glory supporters. But to the rest of the football league who are trying to compete with a couple of massive clubs, it is a problem.
