I have no link to them whatsoever and they are worse than us but I have always liked Ipswich.

When I was a kid I always kept a close eye on a Spurs, the Gaza, Lineker era up to the Klinsmann days.

Special mention for Erik Thorstvedt.

West Brom, Brentford or Millwall. :shock:

That’s assuming the stadiums would be open and you could go to matches.

Man City I suppose as the least dislikeable big club always on TV.

West Brom are a proper club, fans alright, not impossible regular journey from Berks.

Brentford seems a decent nearby club, reasonable fans, good story, good football, nearby pubs okay, bit like Reading at Elm Park.

Millwall, it’d be a change!

Sunderland - a girl I dated was mad keen on them!

Went to the Poly up there because of the football club, going to games at Roker Park (including the game v Liverpool that was abandoned at half time due to a frozen pitch).

Real Madrid so I can just tell Liverpool and United how sh1t their tiny clubs are and how even their combined CL wins don't add up to ours/theirs. :D

As I supported United before swapping to Reading in the early 2000s, I'd imagine United still.
