NR_Daddy Posted August 4 Report Posted August 4 (edited) The football season is upon us here in Britain, and while it's not everyone's cup of tea, it is recognised as a national sport and the birthplace of the modern game. So .... lets hear about the team you support and why. Which competitions are your team in? I'll start the ball rolling. I support Newcastle Utd. I've been a supporter since I was a kid as my dad was a Geordie (name for those from Newcastle area for those that don't know). Our biggest rivals are Sunderland (only other local team) and it's been a while since they were in the EPL. Looking forward to thrashing them this year. We are also defending our title for the EFL Trophy, also known as the Caraboa Cup (Sponsor's name) which we won last year as underdogs, beating Liverpool in the final at Wembley. We are also back in the Champions League. Edited August 4 by NR_Daddy

Lol Given the way he conducted himself, I'm glad he is gone. No loyalty or gratitude to the club who made him. We got 2 world class strikers for the price of him with Wissa and Woltemade. Our season will be better than just having Isak and it will help with PSR because we didn't spend much. I don't think Ekitike will like it though, because he now has to play second fiddle to Isak at liverpool. Which team do you aupport @Ancientad1992? Edited September 8 by NR_Daddy

I'm an Arsenal supporter, happy with our business in the summer. Now gotta put it into results. Either Ekitike or Gakpo will get the short straw which is a good problem to have for Liverpool. Let's see how the season pans out, international breaks are the worst 😂
NR_Daddy Posted September 7 Author Report Posted September 7 I think while Gyokeres is a useful addition to your starting line-up, he is still unproven in premier league and that's a risk. I would have thought Arsenal would have gone for a bigger name, even someone like Bryan Mbeumo, proven in the PL. Hopefully it'll be a better season for you than last actually having a striker. As for the Ekitike/Gakpo problem, I don't think either of those players is going to want to be warming a bench for long.
MissNMTX Posted October 2 Report Posted October 2 Ok here goes. I know I'm an American, but I've been a Manchester United supporter for 20 years now.. Back when we could only get top table squads here and had to pay for extra channels. It's not nearly as fun as it used to be, but love hopes all things, right? I've never been to the Theatre to see them play, but I did see a preseason match once. All the other stuff you know. Main rivalry is Liverpool, so obviously not fun times of late

Most of their fans are glory hunters (people that started supported them because they bought their success with debt) and their "home" fans are known to be "tourists" because none of them are from Manchester. I think we need to find you a new team 🤣
MissNMTX Posted October 2 Report Posted October 2 @NR_DaddyI'm 20 years in. I think I just have to suffer.

MissNMTX Posted October 2 Report Posted October 2 @NR_Daddy I was raised not to be a fairweather supporter. I just feel lucky to have discovered European football to begin with. Plus, I look good in the red.
