Cool, Hate Man.Utd bunch of umpa lumpa's.
you CAN support a good team, as long as you live near there.
I kinda like chelsea, I got a shirt before they became good, The Autoglass one, And i have the old one with veron on the back, And now i have One with Essien on the back.
Because I want to, being a supporter of a club from the lower leagues dosent make you a better supporter. I wont be dictated to by some whimsical belif that supporting the club from your own town makes you the dogs ********.
O and the fact that my Dad is a Utd supporter, who was born in Manchester and has brought me up to support them.
I'm a Chelsea fan, and I've never lived in London. If I'm honest I support them because they were the first team I ever heard of, in first school I asked some kid who he supported (not knowing any teams myself) and just agreed when he said Chelsea. Like DarkDemon said, that was back in the Autoglass days :D Wouldn't say that was "before they got good" though, they were winning lots even back then.
I love Arsenal and I was born and raised in Australia. When I'm not bound to any territorial team and I love the EPL (a lot) it's only fair to support someone, right? Well anyway.. my love for them wasn't because of the team so much, but specific players themselves. Dennis Bergkamp and Thierry Henry.. two of the best players I've ever seen. I don't consider myself a glory hunter because the results don't effect my point of view or stance as a fan. AFC are struggling and I really don't care, I just love watching them play. I haven't missed a match in five or so years.
I like arsenal because well... they have T.HENRY and he is cool because he is french and french eat snails because they cant eat worms because the worms get eaten by birds and such.
EDIT HAHAHHAHAHAIHAHFIKSNF
I never said I was "purebred" Australian I said I was born and raised here. How can I call myself anything other than Australian? AFC = Arsenal by the way. As for results, of course I want to see them win, it's just not the primary concern as I'd like to see good football over unexciting results.
