I support Spurs only because my dad does. Surely family is as good a reason as where you were born to support a team.

Unfortunately come the revolution this won't be acceptable ?

My brothers mate left Liverpool to go to London in the 80's and ended up settling down there and having a family. He wouldn't allow his kids to support Liverpool, they had to choose from their local clubs and ended up with Spurs.

That's just responsible parenting.

That's just responsible parenting.

It was, til they ended up with Spurs. Then it became child abuse.

Yeah. It gets rid of that I support xxxx because my grandad did etc

Seeing as he's been to a good few games home/away/Europe then he's able to carry on supporting us.

If he was born in Manchester he'd have to support his local team.

Fabinho 2nd best CB in the world already.

So if your grandad supports the reds, your dad supports the reds and you move to Wycombe, start supporting them just because of a geographical anomaly even though you have no link with them.

Your dad picked it because he moved for work in the local factory?

Rubbish.

If I'm born here and move then no. If I'm born there then yes.

Its not rubbish, its about supporting your local team.

We're lucky we were born in a city that has a world class team, and I do believe that you should support your local team, if your family has roots there, but if you have no roots there, support your arl fellas team.

Nah, support your local team, it's that simple.

Born in Enfield, grew up in Hertfordshire, university in Leiocestershire, moved from there to Oxfordshire, to Manchester, back to Oxfordshire, to Milton Keynes, and then to Dorset.

Who do I support please?

And does this change if/when I next move?
