    I had only liked Arsenal when I was very little when I hadn't noticed how badly they had played and compared to Man U they are pretty bad.

    So I have supported Man U since I was nine 3 monthe 2 weeks and 5 days in 15 hour of the daay in age when I had watched a football game.

    Southampton, as that's my original 'hood.

    Though if you can have a second team, it would be Fulham - as I live round the corner from Craven Cottage.

    that is the deffinition of a Glory Hunter, someone who picks a team because they play well.

    I did support Arsenal...

    ....But then I got busy and didn't really keep up with football. So decided it wasn't necessarily the truth to say I support them. But if I went back to following football and watching matches etc, it would be them. Wouldn't change :yes:

    Ugghh

    Talk about rubbish - they're named after a place they're not even located in.

    Fulham were offered the site of Stamford Bridge about a hundred years ago and turned it down. Don't blame them. The Cottage is a much nicer venue.

    Huuuh how can you say that, the Bridge is a magnificent jewel in the capitals crown. The home of the best team in London :thumb:
    The only draw back about the place is its really difficult to get away after the games, Fulham Broadway and West Brompton cant cope with the massive crowds although massive crowds are never going to ba a problem for Fulham i guess :D

    Leeds United!
    Because of family from up there and being taken to games as a kid when visiting my grandad. I have always supported them.
    Marching on together!!

    I do also have a soft spot for Brighton & Hove Albion as they are the local side for me, but when it comes to Leeds V Brighton, there can be no mercy. Leeds til I die.

    Craven Cottage does quite nicely thank you very much.

    Remind me which European competition Chavski are still in? Oh yeah, that's right :D

    West Ham. I take an interest in a couple of others (namely Norwich City, Southend, Leyton Orient and Dagenham and Redbridge) but West Ham always come first.

    A friend of mine once told me you can't support two teams in the same division - that's coming from someone, who at some point, was supporting Barnet & Bradford City.:yeees:

    I support Plymouth Argyle (because I was born here) and Man City. (Because I didn't want to support the same team as everyone at school - Man United)

    When I'm in London, I weill go and watch Barnet & Hendon both play - but don't dupport them as such.

    Exactly. I once got called a glory supporter - at the time, Plymouth had just been promoted to League One. (Division Two back then):yeees: I was born here, therefore, I have every right to support them. If I was going to be a glory supporter, I would've chosen a team in the premiership - not one just promoted to the third tier of English football.

    I never said I supported Brighton. I don't. I only support one team and that's Leeds United.

    I just said I have a soft spot for them. I'll check up on how they're doing in the league occaisionally and I'd rather see them do well than any other team in the league, other than Leeds. Doesn't make a loyal supporter.
