I have just been on Red Cafe winding up some Manc Twats
It seems that loads of them have lots of second teams and they have shirts for these teams that they wear almost as often as their own shirts
Amazingly Barca is be a strong favourite and
I dont know about you but whilst i follow the progress of another team i wouldnt consider buying their shirt and wearing it more than an Arse shirt.
Is this a strange thing to do or am i in the wrong?
PS: God they don't like the term 'PLASTIC MANC'.
He told me he had been "supporting" ManU since 1978.
Turned out that he had never been to Old Trafford. Never been to ANY ManU game. Never bought a shirt. Or any other Manc merchandise.
So I said "In what way are you a Manchester Utd SUPPORTER?"
Er, er, er..........
Laughed my bollocks off He was quite embarassed
Most Manc "supporters" are exactly the same as him. Go to your local pub in Surrey or whatever. See the prats dancing in front of the telly when their team scores. They think they are doing their bit for the team.
In Ireland you will see a lot of people wearing Jock shirts but only Celtic or Rangers. No other Jock team matters yet they claim it's all about the football Yet they wear Prem shirts as well and claim to "support" both clubs.
When Celtic and ManUre met in the CL the great majority all supported Celtic (except the Rangers fans) on the night. How the f*ck can you support two teams
well i dont do shirts but i do take interest in other teams and like hearing when they do well. i'm all arsenal, but im at univeristy in aberdeen and i can see pittodrie from my window so i check out the odd game because i like being part of a football crowd and generally enjoy myself, winding up the huns last year after the uefa cup final was class and a lot more fun than some of the times ive seen the arsenal since ive been up here.
similarly with other countries, i like hamburg and bielefeld (because of people i stayed with) in germany, lazio (cos i dont like roma) and fiorentina (cos i like florence) in italy and villarreal (BOBBY) in spain. i like feyenoord and dinamo zagreb, i like fenerbahce because they dont like galatasaray... i enjoy football for the sake of football, im never neutral because i always take a side.
also: i like scarves, but i wont have one from another english club, except the towns non-leauge team but that was just a phase....

Got to say that i hate the term 'lol' but i am still 'lol' ten munutes later, quality story/post.
Back in 99 i ended up with my brothers sister in law (sorry sounds a bit convoluted, but she was hot as fuck). Anyway we went out for a while and her boy arrived for a day out in his new (bought by his bilogical father) manc shirt just after the 2nd semi final.
Well i'm sorry to say (as she was so hot) that i gave him a choice: either take it off and i burn it or carry on wearing it and i burn it.
He took it off and yes i burnt it!!!
By the way the relationship didn't last much longer

dont have a problem with celtic fans{or any fan whoever they they support arsenal,liverpool,man utd etc etcc } over here who go and watch league of ireland on a friday night and head over to the uk for there footie of a saturday but the celthick brigade whove never been to scotland and slag you off for following and english club i fuckin despise with a passion especially at ireland games these *word censored* probably couldnt even name you the first 11 that turn out at celtic park
Arsenal fan first and foremost but follow Fleet Town whenever I'm back in hampshire and not going to the arsenal so I have one of their scarves. I don't really think there's a conflict of interest between the Premier League and the British Gas Southern League (Or whatever the hell its called these days).
Likewise, I have a Hertha Berlin scarf as I went to one of their games when I was in Berlin which doubles up niceley to be a Reading scarf when I'm at the Madejski.
Yet they wear Prem shirts as well and claim to "support" both clubs.
Good girl
