    Don't need to have a ST to be a fan.

    As Lamps said it's a wee bit baffling that foreigners support teams that they've never been to.

    Somewhere I can understand it being strange supporting a team in another country. I myself was brought up in England, not in Manchester though. However as durrty said, everyone has their own opinion, as long as we don't start flaming each other because of it

    Yeah I wasn't trying to pull you up. I know you're 'from here'.

    I know you weren't, don't worry

    Anyway let's avoid arguing about something so trivial (not to you personally Slender, this is to all).

    Is it worth buying FM17? I'm bored and could use something to play when I'm done with my weekly raids soloing in WoW, and bored of being shit at Overwatch ;D

    Norway is worse, ~8 euros odd for a beer. But they pay higher taxes and get other stuff cheaper, so I guess it all works out the same in the end.

    I honestly don't care who supports what but if you live an ocean away from "your team" don't flame the passion of those that support their local team.

    Sevilla 6-4 Espanyol

    what a crazy game. I don't know how well we will do this season but it looks to be a stressful and entertaining ride.

    Being a fan of a club absolutely doesn't require to live nearby. If you can watch all games on tv and read the news you can identify yourself with that club more than others.

    Football's all about cheering for the team with the most trophies and acting a hero on internet forums these days, sadly.

    Someone where i work is a Liverpool supporter. I sometimes wanna smack him in the face because why does a portuguese who (as far as he claims) hasn't stepped out of Porto support Liverpool. Whenever he goes "we won against X Y Z" i just cringe. I get if you were born in another country but currently living somewhere else but someone who hasn't any ties to the city or even the country is just weird imo.

    I've got a season ticket for Barcelona. But that's mostly because I'm well-acquainted with someone who manages travelling for the club (Hotels, flights etc.)

    Planning on going to El Clasico in December

    Nice, I remember visiting Camp Nou when I went to Barcelona, epic stadium. Must be amazeballs when it's full, especially during an El Clasico!

    It can be amazing. Was there for a game versus Atletico Madrid (when Radomir Antic was the coach, let's see how many here know who that is) and it was fantastic. However, there are better stadium atmospheres in Spain for most games. Sevilla, Valencia, and above all, Athletic Bilbao are pretty amazing.

    Cool. I'd love to fly to Manchester to watch a United game, but I'm currently going to study and being a student means no money! But I'm hoping once I've graduated I'll be able to afford going to see United play finally.

    Haha yeah, it's that time of the year for me as well. I've almost got my parttime job (Bicycle food delivery in Amsterdam for top dog restaurants) so hoping that'll earn me some cash cause I'd love to bring that new Barca shirt with me, love the Dream Team redesign.
