York City FC for me......York born and raised, got the mighty Red and Blue running through my veins!
In N.Ireland we have a weird setup with football teams. We seem to support too many
Our own local league is poor, but most people support their local town (Larne FC in my case - good scandal this year).
We also nearly all support an English league team (I am fanatical about Liverpool and have been since I first watched them on TV in 1977 as a boy).
We then have strong links to the Scottish league and there are serious numbers of supporters for both the 'old firms' - I go to Ibrox about 4-5 times a season and support Rangers. If they ever join the English league, I will have a dilemna.
I run with a crowd of footie fans and we all have a favoured Italian, Spanish and lower league English team who, whilst not actually fans, we would keep a close eye on. I have followed the fortunes of Gravesend and Northfleet for a number of seasons lately and will get around to coming over to watch them soon.
The crowd I socialise with are a weird mix, with main teams supported including:
Stranraer
Preston (he's from there so we will let him off)
Leeds (hehe)
ManUre
Newcastle
Burnley
Norwich
There are pints to be won every season when our teams meet up with each other. I was gutted to have to buy one for the Burnley guy a few years ago when they put us out of the FA cup

Didn't get over to see them last season, which is sad, since Fowler has left (again).
Still, just signed Torres for next season. Can't wait to see how he links up with Kuyt especially, and Crouch and Voronin.
Don't see me getting over this season either Tranq, but might arrange with you next season for a joint visit
