Nothing to do with any of that rubbish. It's sport not another World War.

Supporting a team you never have time for just because they are playing a foreign team is odd as **** and would make for great debate on the Politics thread
Indeed. <applause>
 
I’ve just realised...

Spurs could shoot above ‘Pool this weekend with a game still in hand, provided that Chavs don’t bottle it.

Chavs need to win, of course, to keep thei top 4 dream alive.

How tragic would it be if ‘Pool lose to Real and finish 5th!

Very tragic...we don't want them Chavvy ****s to get CL football

I'm British ... that's it. Why would I favour a Spanish, German, Italian or French team?,

You might aswell say you favour the British players in your team more than the foreign ones.

What's Nationality got to do with it? Real Madrid are on a different Universe compared to Lesta, it's not as though there is a rivalry. Youre always anti Pool every weekend but because they are playing the Spanish, you support them?

<laugh>

...I'm only really anti whoever we are playing every weekend (or might otherwise affect us In terms of league position).. so right now I'm not really bothered who beats who as we are likely to finish more or less where we are ...

But I'm still British and throughout my life have had a lot of enjoyable interaction with the fans of other British clubs ... so I can't imagine favouring a foreign club over a British one .... you see it different ... fair enough ... but I suspect I am in the majority ... particularly if you look beyond the Premier League <ok>
 
Also, if you go on Ben’s website and FB page and look at some of the comments made by knuckle dragging expats, there is a disgraceful demonstration of racial bigotry!

It’s almost as though they forget that they are living in someone else’s country.

Oops!

I forgot that only a handful of the lads is privy to that information!

I get on with fans of other teams, Liverpool fans too, as you know...and having frequented Spain on a few occasions, I can't say Ive had a problem with the Spanish either

Go to bed Fosse
 
Why support any team other than your own?

You don't 'support' them because you don't pay anything ... but you almost certainly favour one team when you watch any sort of match ...whatever the sport ... when I watch athletics I cheer on the home nations athlete . I can still acknowledge the brilliance of foreign athletes .... but I'll want the Brit to win ... not hope they lose because they come from a particular city ..
