WHATS YOUR LOCAL TEAM

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Sydney FC. :lol:

It's good to be able to go to live games, or at least to be able to watch them at sane times.

Standard isn't too good, but its interesting enough. The fact that my brother supports Melbourne makes it more interesting too.

in theory should be Barnet. Had a season ticket for a couple of years back in the Charlery/McGleish days, when a young Marlon King was the talk of the terraces. 1st team has been Arsenal from day one but always keep an eye out for the bees results..

Going to MK Dons v Lincoln City this weekend...... £5 adults, £1 kids via the local Youth League!! Will be a good atmosphere at the "Moo camp" esp as Dons are looking to get a big crowd (10,000+) as live on Sky.

Please no more "franchise football" comments or I'll start referring back once again to our move to Islington ......

My "local" Team is Magherafelt Sky Blues FC who play in the NI Intermediate League (Amateur) and as I am a Committee member (PRO)most of my Spare time is given over to the club. Great bunch of lads and always good craic.

First love is Arsenal and I am counting the days to I head over again :D

ARSENAL WERE ORIGINALLY MY LOCAL TEAM BUT LIVING IN HACKNEY, LEYTON ORIENT ARE ABOUT FIVE MINUTES BY CAR DOWN THE ROAD FROM ME. YEARS AGO I USED TO WATCH THEM WHEN ARSENAL WERE AWAY BUT HAVEN'T BEEN TO BRISBANE ROAD FOR DONKEYS - OR IS THAT BECAUSE THEY'RE DONKEYS? :? :wink:

ALTHOUGH THEY ARE DOING WELL SO FAR THIS SEASON, BEING ORIENT, THEY'LL INEVITABLY END UP SLIDING DOWN THE LEAGUE AGAIN. HAVE TO SAY THOUGH, THEIR STADIUM IS LOOKING BETTER THAN IT ONCE DID - WELL FROM THE OUTSIDE ANYWAY. :lol: :wink:
