why? I have no connection to shropshire bar a childhood where I had no choice where I lived.
I moved to London as soon as I could and I would never go back to live there. It holds nothing important for me, why should I have a football team from there?

Question Badger.
Do you actually like football?

I merely don't see the point of Barry's argument.
It would have some relevance if football teams had any connection to their local communities bar accidental geography, but that hasn't been the case for any high-level club for years. It's this pseudo-tribal local loyalty stuff from fans that's just the worst kind of deluded arse-gravy. IMO.

In so far as I ever paid any attention as a child, yeah
my mum was the only member of my family to have any passion for it and she's manc.

I remember you mentioning it a while back, I think.

If I was more interested in the game I'd probably go and watch Hibs
as they are my local team now. But the stupid bigotry does my head in up here, and I've got two decent rugby sides less than 100 yards from my flat so I'll stick to that when I'm not playing of a saturday.
