Facebook is always filled with plenty of hilarious groups that keep you procrastinating from dawn till dusk and our five football favourite are no exception.
Becoming a Man Utd fan because you don’t live in Manchester
Description: Like if you hate all the little and old, clueless glory hunting mongs from around the world. SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL TEAM!
Granted, the user behind this group is a little over-sensitive, but the title of the page made us laugh all the same. There appears to be an inkling of casual racism at play here (why are only Asian fans used in the group’s pictures?), but the idea behind the group is the kind of sentiment that Irish United fans have had to put up with for years.

Becoming a Wigan fan because you like having a whole stand to yourself
Description: Wigan is a Rugby town! Football fans in Wigan follow other teams!
No matter how impressive a run of form Wigan Athletic can string together, it doesn’t matter one bit to the local, rugby-loving population. Until Roberto Martinez’s men manage to persuade the FA to allow them to play home games with an oval ball, the DW Stadium will remain unfilled and unloved for quite some time.

Becoming an Arsenal fan because you don’t like the noise at other stadiums
Description: Becoming an Arsenal fan because the other stadiums are too noisy.
Since moving to The Emirates, Arsene Wenger’s men have been bereft of trophies and some would say, bereft of any atmosphere at their home games.
For evidence, have a listen to the home crowd at any of their end-season 2011 implosion, with fans dead silent once their team had conceded a goal. The profile picture for this group is a bit of a low-blow, but it’s a cracking group all the same.

Becoming a Blackburn fan because you love chicken nuggets
Description: LOVE Venky’s HATE Blackburn
Let’s face it, the owners of Blackburn are probably the biggest chancers in football. Arriving with dreams of buying Ronaldinho, they sacked Sam Allardyce for no reason, nearly got the club relegated and were too busy showing off their flash sports cars for fluff pieces on Sky Sports News. On the other hand, they make great chicken.

Becoming a Millwall fan because you enjoy bottling fans of better teams
Description: Millwall motto: If you can’t beat them on the pitch just stab ’em afterwards.
Is there any group of fans that jump at the chance to conform to stereotypes more than Millwall? Even the group itself is full of ‘well ‘ard’ Millwall fans challenged fellow ‘firms’ to brawls at forthcoming games. What a fun bunch!
