I grew up in the 90s in the South West of England so I'm naturally a Manchester United fan ;)
Also a season ticket hold for my local team in Wales which is a great fun

My Father introduce me to EPL when The Special One start to dominate EPL with Chelsea. So yeah, I support Chelsea FC.
Leeds United here.
FC Cincinnati if we're going beyond EPL.
Ah I hadn't even thought to name teams from other leagues.
I have a soft spot for Seattle Sounders ever since picking them as my team for a fifa tournament many years ago. My mate bought me a Sounders shirt with Dempsey on the back after I scored a wonder goal with him.
Similarly, got a soft spot (and replica shirt) for Chievo Verona after playing as them for on LMA Manager (remember that?).
Arsenal. You lot really want Sambi Lokonga?
Fuck knows. We've been linked with approximately 5 billion players already this summer.
Please take Sambi
As a fellow Gooner, it's pretty clear Sambi's got loads of potential, he just is not far enough along developing it to be immediately useful to the process. Especially after this season just ended, where we're that much further ahead of where we thought we'd be - we just can't be spending the minutes on developing a player like that. Burnley under Kompany would be great for him, I think.
I'm a masochist. So, obviously I support Arsenal.

Any worries about Rice now that Shitty are going in for him?
Crap. This is the first I've heard about it. Figures. Yes, now I'm definitely worried it won't happen. This is how it goes every year for Arsenal transfers though. They excite fans with these small feelers to good players, and when their bids are easily turned down, they settle for sub-par signings. Maybe not always the case, but generally it feels that way (Lemar, Buendia, Dembele, Suarez for example).
Liverpool and Falmouth Town (Step 5)
Born in Lancashire of a Scouse mother, with scouse parents, so was put in a red shirt when i was a bairn and that was that. Been a red for many decades now..
Falmouth, we moved to when I was about 13, and the bulk of my late teens and early 20's was spent following Falmouth up and down the South West. Now 400 miles away, but still keep in touch with their results every week. Finally back in the Western League after having to drop down in the 70's because of the travel cost.
Also keep an eye on Daggers results. We moved to London when I was about 3 and Leytonstone was the nearest football club. They merged with Ilford FC, they in turn became Redbridge Forest, and in turn merged with Dagenham. For a similar reason have a soft spot for the O's, and cheered on the Hammers in Europe last year as long as we arent in the same competition. Virtually all my friends as a kid were West Ham fans.
Palace.
Sporting, Inter Miami, and Spurs
I'm ostensibly a Watford fan, having lived near there as a kid before moving to the States, but I don't really support any particular team. I kinda pick new stories each year that I like to follow. I realize this is probably a strange way to watch football, but it works for me.
Because life hates me, I support CD Feirense, and FC Porto, both from Portugal, both in a sorry state due to the boards being greedy cunts.
At least the Portuguese NT got rid of Fernando Santos, I guess
Panathinaikos
Gooner through and through.
No specific team. I just like the game.
True Neutral alignment.
The greatest football team in the world: Crewe Alexandra
My heart beats for Werder Bremen but I'm also a season ticket holder at my local club FC Gütersloh. They just won the Westphalia Double: Oberliga Westfalen (5th tier) and the Westfalenpokal (weich qualifizierte for the DFB Pokal). It has been a surreal year after two decades of misery.
LAFC, Tottenham.
It's really too bad neither have communities here.
Come on you Spurs
Newcastle here HOWAY THE LADS
Atlanta United, Tottenham, Union Berlin
Gooner, plus a local affinity for South China AA
EPL: Newcastle United
MLS: Atlanta United
PAOK FC, Newcastle, and the Pittsburgh Riverhounds
Birmingham Legion FC in the USL Championship. Any other USLC folks in the house?
Yup another USLC fan here! Just went to my first riverhounds game a couple of weeks ago
Arsenal!
Hopefully they implement flairs soon
