did you actually see a game there, or just go to the cavernous Gillette stadium?[/quote]

No sadly didn't get to a game, I did get to The Red Sox on July 4th though, which was pretty amazing!!

Amazing part of the world that is, is that where you are based?[/quote]

Yep - I live in Connecticut, about halfway between Boston and New York; works out well because I cover the football at both the Revolution and the Red Bulls.


To be fair, you didn't miss much, atmosphere-wise. The fans really try hard, but it looks kinda pathetic when you have 15,000 people in a stadium that holds 80,000. There's talk of building a ground right in Boston which would be awesome - but unlikely because it's so damn expensive.[/quote]

Before I started supporting Torquay, I followed (and still do) Spurs.

I always keep an eye out on results of East Stirling for some reason. Maybe because I like an underdog and I remember they used to finish bottom of Div 3 of the Scottish League almost constantly so I like to see how they do from time to time.

prem - no one
champ - dirty leeds (same colours as my yellow blue and white torquay scarf (not sure why i thought leeds away kit was their home one, plus won the fa cup when i was six)
l1 - no one
l2 - no one
conf - no one

serie a - roma (hated the gazza bandwagon and picked their city rivals, since finding out that roma are largely the working mans team and lazio are a bunch of fascist twats was just a bonus!)
ligue 1 - bordeaux (clive allen signed for them in the 80s and he wore the first baggy kit i'd ever seen!!)
argentina - boca juniors (maradona's team, poor mans club again)
sweden - elfsborg (mate lived in boras for a while, play in yellow)
germany - st pauli (anarchist punk rock club, say no more!!)

international - france (six, tigana, battiston, platini) argentina (78 world cup, ticker tape, mario kempes, being allowed to stay up to watch games with a coca cola glass that fitted a whole can in!!)

barca natch!
