Football

Newcastle for me and villa for OH, we live up north so he doesn't go very often but he's never seen them lose live. He is therefore banned from any Newcastle v Villa games for the rest of his life/ until he stops 'bringing them luck' (i know its superstitious nonsense but i'm not risking it) lol.

I'm not fussed but my H and daughter are season ticket holders at Reading. My dad is a life long Everton fan.

Im a Gunner (therefore support Arsenal for all those non footi loving peeeps) and have been since i was 11...and they are currently winning 2-1 woop woop!!!

I dont support the local team, Ipswich, tho Mr F is an avid fan!

I also follow Birmingham, as my dads a brummie, and have been to many a game!!

Still gutted that Brighton and Reading are playing on the two most useless days of the season...

I'm not too big on football - think it stems from growing up in Glasgow where it makes sense not to pick sides - especially when it comes to Celtic and Rangers ?

We both support Liverpool.

*High fives Fruitbat83*

Did you watch the game last night?

'im indoors is a die hard Nottingham Forest fan. I don't really care but for the past ten years have been bombarded with Forest information/rants so I would say I know more than I'd care to.

I do enjoy going to the odd game though. Especially as I tend to get pie, chips and gravy from a dirty van when I do.

OH is a huge Spurs fan, has been brought up supporting them as his Grandad was from near there. I've only been to one live match which was more fun than I thought it would be (more of a rugby girl).

Know far more than I should do about the team due to it frequently being talked about in our house!

VILLA!!!! And Northampton Town as my local team. H claims to support Chelsea though he knows nothing about them whatsoever!

My first memory is of me, aged 3, being taught how to say Manchester United as my brother was a big fan and ingrained it in me! I had a cupboard full of his shirts that no longer fitted him that I wore as nighties when I was younger so I'm afraid to say I'm a Manchester United fan.

H wasn't a football fan when we first got together, he's a bigger fan than I am now!

My supports Chelsea. He gets very passionate about it. I don't get it.

When I was a kid I used to support Arsenal. But only because my crush at school did and I thought it might make him like me ?

I personally do not like football but H is a Birmingham City fan as are his sons and all his family. He detests V*lla with a passion. I have to star out the i as it is a swearword in our house. They are referred to as either "the sh!t" or "the scum".

My family are Stoke City fans. I am very much a girl in that I have no interest.

Wow, I've got a similar first memory - mine is standing in front of the TV (probably also aged about 3) and my dad teaching me to say "come on you reds" - and I've been a Man Utd girl ever since! H supports Sunderland, which works out quite well for me as Man Utd are a bit of a feeder club for them!

I really don't like football and all the attendant tribal guff that goes with it. Each to their own though.

I am a Middlesbrough Fan - just hope we can play amongst the big boys next year! Husband is a huge West Brom fan - I am the other women in our relationship

Fantastic!

We try and get my brothers little girl to shout "goal!" when Utd score but her big brother is an Arsenal fan so we'll see which way her loyalty falls as she grows up, daddy or big brother! ?

Very similar memory - except mine was in a blue Toffees shirt!

My dad tried and tried to turn me into a Everton fan but they had no fit players. Hence why I was a plastic Man U fan - Lee Sharpe........

I hate football. OH officially supports Spurs, but isn't a die hard fan, which is strange, because he's a die hard fan of anything football related. He will watch Hungary v Sweden under 21s if it's on. His family is from Swansea, so he's very happy that Swansea are now in the Premier League. He also manages a local football team and has their colours painted on our study wall!

Very sore subject.

*Trickers of Reading*

Oops - sorry Trickers.

He was hot!!! Had a framed photo of him on my wall (much to my Dad's disgust!)

I am a Millwall fan. My Dad took me to my first game when I was 3. I even played football for their women's team for a few years as well.

OH is an arsenal fan!

Swear word in our household!

Remind me not to mess with you nicnol!

I was brought up a Man Utd fan and still am.

OH supports Liverpool. Needless to say, it can get ugly...

Im from a family of Villa fans, so had no choice.

UTV!

Me neither and one of the many things I love about my OH is he cant stand it either. Thinks footballers are a load of girls. That said though we cant go out on saturday afternoon because he has to watch the rugby league final!

My new BIL is a villa fan- my sister's garter at her wedding last weekend was claret and blue!

Yes hooliganism is in my blood...watch what you say haha!!! ?

I wasn't happy that we let a 2 nil lead slip in the dying minutes against Reading on the opening game!!

No I'm from South Shields but OH is from Nottingham!

Best chips and gravy ever were actually at Preston North End's ground. They were delish.

When we go to a home game I tend to favour a chip butty.

I am a sooper hoop Queens Park Rangers fan (4th generation apparently) and OH is Portsmouth. Yuck.

In case my username didn't give it away, I'm a Liverpool fan! OH on the other hand supports Oxford - he's a local boy.

Yep, did you? Wasn't a bad second half, nice to see the new boys settling in.

I seem to have been converted since meeting OH to a Leeds Utd fan! Though I will always follow Wolves with interest.
