1) A 'Johnny-Come-Lately' football fan. 2) The 'Prawn Sandwich Brigade'. 3) A 'celebrity' who claims to have supported 'x' since they were knee-high but in reality wouldn't know a goalpost from a corner flag. 4) A person who treats a Premiership game as an alternative to a trip to the theatre/art gallery etc. 5) A camera-swinging tourist.
Typically white, liberal, middle-class, professional, higher than average income, university educated, lives in the home counties or the more desirable areas of most cities, and had only the most marginal of interest in/no interest at all in football until 1) after the Taylor Report, 2) the advent of all-seater stadia/The Premiership/Sky, 3) the repositioning of football as 'entertainment'. Drinks in wine bars rather than pubs.
Taken from Nick Hornby, whose first novel 'Fever Pitch' introduced the game for the first time to a whole class of people who had never even thought about going to football before reading his book, and consequently set in motion the complete snd utter commercialisation of the working-man's game, whilst at the same time pricing the working-class out of the game altogether.

"Excuse me, my wife and I cannot see the field if you insist on standing throughout the game? Would you please sit down?"
"Do want a slap you cunt? Fucking Hornby's.."

An English male author who writes books about the hopeless and pathetic lives of other English men. They can be very good but kind of depressing.
