Therein lies the issue. There's load of Liverpool fans in their late 30's / early 40's who made the same choice you did as a kid
Good job I made a sensible decision then.

Anyway Matth's banter is better these days. Him following me around social media has helped him loads.
We went for a night out in Newcastle a few weeks back and I could have sworn there was a Newcastle match on that day, everybody had their black and white tops on in pubs.
I still have an old Crown Paints Liverpool top that was passed down to me by my brother once they'd realised it was looking like a tank top on him, I think they surgically removed it with the help of some 999 lube. [HASHTAG]#memories[/HASHTAG]
Arsenal fans make me laugh.
Go to a game at the Emirates and everyone looks like they've been slapped by the club shop.
Last time I got a replica top was 1991...30 quid even back then..before that was 1985 when my dad saw it in some cash n carry back in the day
Since then I've had a few fakes because my bro used to go to China with his mate, 4 quid a pop..wear them for 5 a side etc...still got a cool AC Milan number lying around somewhere
When I play 5 a side I only wear Barca...proper plassie it up.
Haven't played in over 10 years tbf.
Turkey is my go to for snides. Used to go a few times a year and fill up a couple cases of fake ***s, fake football shirts, watches. Anything fake - suckers in the UK love a fake.
If we had 10 peeps meeting..I would have made sure we organised a game..would be jokes...we all talk **** on here

If I'm captain you're going in goal
I'll put Matth up top.
This old debate.
My opinion, which will never change, is that you support your local or a localish team.
How can kids get properly into football if they can't easily go to a game? It makes no sense to me at all, as I kid I loved going to games and my sons love going to games.
United are my own local team and Swansea are my boy's local team. I take them to both but I'd never force United on them. They do gravitate towards United though so I get the family connection bit.
I just don't, and never will, understand 'supporting' a team you have no connection to and will never go and watch because they're based miles away. Sorry if that doesn't fit with a lot of people but there you go.
Foreign fans are a different story but I couldn't care less about them to be perfectly honest.
Pittsburgh Steelers by the way. First game I ever saw they beat Dallas Cowboys so I supported them thereafter. Turns out they're good so that's a plus!
