Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws support the Gryffindor Quidditch team against the Slytherin
Yes, but after checking the books, I don't think that that lasts throughout all seven books. Obviously, there were no games in book 7, and the Tri-Wizard Tournament meant none in book 4, either.
In OotP, *Luna* clearly supports Gryffindor in the Gryffindor vs. Slytherin game, with her lion's head hat, but I just skimmed through that game, and we don't hear about anyone except Gryffindors, Slytherins, and Luna.
In HBP, we have:
One end of the stadium was solid red and gold; the other, a sea of green and silver. Many Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws had taken sides too: Amidst all the yelling and clapping Harry could distinctly hear the roar of Luna Lovegood's famous lion-topped hat.
Point one: "many" Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws, not all.
Point two: only Luna is specified as having taken Gryffindor's side.
In terms of specific people, we've got the Ravenclaw Luna for the Gryffindors, and the Hufflepuff Zacharias... not especially for the Gryffindors, although not especially "for" either side.
There is also:
Ron saved goals with apparent ease. [...] the crowd greeted a particularly good save with a rousing chorus of the old favorite "Weasley Is Our King"
We have no idea who's singing. It could be just the Gryffindors, but even if it isn't, it could be that the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws were showing their appreciation of a good play, more than taking a particular side.
So, that's all we see after book 3, during the Gryffindor-Slytherin games. Maybe there are other comments not at the games; I dunno. But it looks like the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws cheered Gryffindor against Slytherin until they won the Cup in book 3, and then didn't care so much.
