    Hi I'm Emily. I'm generally going to be a lurker but I thought it's only polite to introduce myself.

    I used to be obsessed with football as a kid, and played as a goalie until I was about 22. Unfortunately life ended up getting in the way of that (and other things). One of my fitness goals now is to be fit enough to re-join my old team.

    I'm a life-long Sheffield Wednesday supporter, but I do have a soft spot for Roma (because I used to have a crush on Montella. Shallow, I know).

  • Hi fellow beautiful game fans! I am a crazy soccer mom who is in love with the game. I played a long, long, long time ago growing up in So Cal. My jr. high school didn't have a girls team so a couple of my friends and I played with the boys. I played in high school before tearing my ACL over and over again. I went for my come back career in a women's over 30 league about 6 years ago and promptly tore my ACL for the last time. (At least I got four fun games in). Now I do a little coaching and a little managing.

    I LOVE watching my son play club soccer. I've been to the WWC final in LA in 99 and in Germany in 2011. Last big game was the MLS Cup Final -- hurray for the Galaxy!

    We have FSC on in our house almost every weekend we are home. Favorite teams include Everton, Man City and, of course, Barcelona. I have a huge mom crush *blush* on Joe Hart.
    Thanks for creating this group!

    Hi Fellow lovers of the beautiful Game, I'm Jamaican, living in Florida since 2004, actually on my laptop right now with the champions league match with PSV and AC Milan going on. I'm a diehard Arsenal Fan, and also a longtime FIFA gamer. I obviously support Jamaica but as we have only qualified once to the world cup I tend to support the Dutch, I like their style of play.

    My absolute favorite player is Zidane, there will never be any as good as him, the goal he scored for Madrid against Leverkausen is one of the best volleys ever. Some of my other favorite players are Thierry Henry, Klinsmann, Berkamp, Ronaldinho, and Maldini (I liked that Maldini stayed at Milan so long, pity he never won a world cup)

    zidane and henry are my two favorite players as well. if Jamaica ever starts using their track stars for soccer that could be interesting. :)

    For all my sins I am overweight and a Gillingham supporter (Skybet League 1 - english 3rd tier). Supported them since 1998, when I went to my first ever gills game. Before that (for the 1st 12 years of my life) was an Arsenal fan, but grew disintrested due to the difficulty of getting tickets and also the expense.

    Was a season ticket holder for 5 years from 2004-2009, but after my first born was born, the season ticket had to be shelved and it is now the odd game (mainly away).

    I like lots of sports - football was my original favourite, and is always up there. I'm a Liverpool fan (not that hard to guess!); and thus I enjoy any bad results Man Utd have - so this season is going ok! My kids are both Arsenal fans, so I like them too (when they are not interfering with us winning stuff)

    Well, that sentence went no-where... what were you going to say, Laces?

    Norwegian football fan here. I support the Norwegian national team and Manchester United. Been lucky enough to be at Old Trafford to support the team a number of times, including in big matches against Chelsea and Liverpool, and (un)lucky enough to witness the CL final in 2011 against Barcelona as well. Cost me an arm and a leg and ended in heart-break *sigh*

    Been a fan and an amateur player since I was 13, now 29, and have benefitted tremendously from shedding 10 kilos in terms of endurance, balance and overall performance. Feels really good to know that I won't be staying away from playing because of bum knees, achey back or overall soreness, which previously plagued me for about a week after a session with the lads.

    This group needs more activity, man! Are people still active on here?
