clearly man utd
but i am from manchester, so it's allowed.

on those lines, here's me telling my 70 year old yorkshire dad that i am dating an asian guy: "let's just say, you won't like the fact that he cheers for india in the cricket."

"why does he do that?"

"well, his dad's from india."

[pause]

"if he doesn't want to cheer for england, what the bloody hell's he doing here?"

"he was born here, dad. he can cheer for fucking iceland if he wants."

[pause]

"hmm. he's not a fucking chelsea fan is he?"

all about priorities...
