  • By default - Birmingham.
    My husband is a Brummie through and through.
    He has every home and away shirt for the past 25 odd years and he's only 29 now!
    He now lives in Australia but his nan still sends every shirt when they come out and records the games and send the DVD over as well so that he can see his beloved team play.

    We have hats, scarves, the mini kits that you stick on your car window.

    He even wore Birmingham cuff links at our wedding! And wanted the blue and white to be the wedding colours!

    First thing he does every morning is check the BCFC web site to see what is happening.

    We have got the worst Liverpool team I have seem in my living memory.

    Regarding the Man U thing I hate them, I am red from Liverpool , it's the law I have to hate them any English fan will tell you that.
    Where as all evertonians wear Manu underwear (banter)
    With Manu it not a money thing they are not being bank rolled the team was built.

    Leicester City FC, but as I'm an African, I'll always proclaim love for the mighty Kaizer Chiefs.
  • Spurs fan here...for those who dont know it Tottenham Hotspur.... Americans in the squad are (Mr Consistent) Brad Friedel and Clint Dempsey!

    Started supporting about 20years ago, was the first 'real' game i went to, taken by my grandfather who is an Arsenal fan (think my Yankees to his Red Sox) haha.

    I try to get to the games as often as possible, been once this season, soon to be 3times!! one more on 8th Nov and on new years day, when i have a friend coming to visit from NJ who wants to go to a 'soccer' game while here in England

    So thats me and my club :)

    man city season ticket holder here! enjoying the ride,last night an example of how as a city fan you have to take the lows as well as the highs!

    Mancini seems to be using that excuse "we failed to prepare properly" a lot, said the same when Everton beat you. Another bit of great business by Moyes selling you Rodwell :smile:

    yeah i think he believes it deflects attention away from the players, we seem to have turned into evertons cup final,having spoke to other everton fans,i really get the impression they walk around all the time looking at us and their thinking why not us? rodwell,jury's out,but if he turns out to be as good as lescott,i'll be happy.
  • Another vote for Leeds!

    And that d*ckhead was from Cheltenham so he should have been a M*n United fan!

    And there is no atmosphere like Anfield.

    I don't know my local library was quite similar last time I visited.

    The Anfield atmosphere is legendary......but when did they start to sing hymns and arias? it's all you could hear

    I only just recently started paying attention to football/soccer. My interest was peeked about a year ago when I found a local radio show that covered soccer both in the US and abroad. Since then I've began watching and listening to more, trying to educate myself.

    I didn't want to be a Man City/Man U/Chelsea fan just because they are popular and doing well right now. I'm interested in the Wigan Latics and have been watching their games recently. I like that they are an underdog, and plus I'm an Oakland Athletics fan so the name works :P

    Hoping they can avoid relegation this season, and can recover from their loss to Man United.

    Go Latics!

    Spurs, Arsenal, and Man City. And I'm not from London hence don't care about the local rivalry between Spurs and Arsenal supporters.
