    Anyone else got a 2nd team?

    Not so much as in one you support really, but just one that you like for no apparent reason and like to see do well, except when they play us.

    For me it's little Norwich...

    They play good footy, a noisy ground...nowt to dislike really...


    And they're playing Chelsea at the mo. and i find myself cheering them one...

    Anyone got any different?

    My nanna was from Tuscany, and she was a really big Fiorentina fan (glory supporter, she was from Siena....)

    As a result, I have a big interest and a lot of feeling for them.

    Soft spot for Malaga now of course, but I can't say I care too much.

    Always had a soft spot for Notts Forest, ever since Clough went there.

    Sunderland have always been my first team, but I've always had a soft spot for Hartlepool. Follow them every weekend as well as the lads.

    Bottom end of Rosemount Place, used to drink in the RG union bar and The Prince of Wales one of my favourite pubs of all time. if you get a chance go and see Cove you'll see some good fottball and they where allways a friendly lot got into a couple of scraps with the Elgin City Mob for some reason they used to hate us going to the ground

    Mine is Malaga. I went a few years ago and fell in love with the place, the local's were very friendly and nice aswell.
    Theyd just beat Real Madrid when I was there aswell, so the place was buzzing!
