I’d expect any kid to develop an affinity for the local team in the area where he is educated and then carry that affinity into adulthood as he makes an astronomical amount of money. FFS.
Oh, thanks for proving my point on the tiger stripe debate btw. I didn’t expect your help but it was much appreciated
What? I mean it. I never would’ve thought about posting a pic of our most ‘tiger-like’ shirt with its stripes going across rather than up, but you doing that proved my point perfectly.
No one has landed a knockout blow yet, just plenty of sparring so far. Seconds out ..... round four ....
Wow. He made 15 bn last year, that’s some going. I wonder if he fancies investing in a local football club?
Given that BCC literally described my route to supporting Hull City, I don’t regard it as nonsense. Apart from the astronomical money, obviously...
There’s nothing wrong with people supporting a club in an area they move to, it’s the assertion that a kid should be obliged to change the club they support that’s a nonsense. Just over ten years ago I contemplated moving to London and if junior (who’s been a City pass-holder since he was six) had announced that he was switching to being an Arsenal fan, I’d have dropped him at the nearest orphanage.
My lad switched from Arsenal to Hull City when he was six, on moving back North. I’ve deleted his number off my phone.
