    The UBER fan

    We have seen quite a few on the board recently.

    So what defines an uber fan. I'll kick it off

    .Uberfan, the ability in one sweeping comment to make a large portion of your fellow support appear to be ****.

    or

    .Uberfan, the ability to never say anything bad about your team

    The ability to stay on to the final whistle, even when thousands of your fellow supporters are heading for the exits.

    Uberfans are ranked by how many posts they have made on Hibs.net even though at least 99% of what they post is absolute tosh.
