Who's your English Premier League team?

[Clint]

Everton for me. What about you guys?

I also have an interest for Derby County in the Championship, because I used to enjoy watching them in the Premier League before they got relegated.

[Champagne Football]

No particular team. Just go for the teams with Australian players. Because of this, I was leaning towards Leeds United a few years ago, but they've all left now and the team's been relegated, so bugger that for a joke!

Anyway, you've reminded me yet again that the EPL is no longer on FTA TV, so thanks for that... :mad:

[Gooners Away]

Obviously!

[Melbourne Boys]

Newcastle United

[atlas]

I don't support anyone in the EPL either really. I pretty much keep an eye on the Aussie's playing in the EPL.

Though I do support Leicester City in the Championship, through members of my family living in that part of England.

[mooks]

Southampton

[semja]

Aston Villa! My dad supports em aswell.

Not doing too bad either we're sitting 6th atm.

Who's your English Premier League

There are four divisions of the English League if you hadn't noticed..

And off they jump when their team goes down! Admirable loyalty there.

Lol ... gee ... I didn't know that!!!

[Patrick Hernandez]

Chelsea for me. :D

[Champagne Football]

And off they jump when their team goes down! Admirable loyalty there.

I said that I didn't follow any particular team in the EPL, you nimrod. I was only leaning towards Leeds because they had the most Aussies, but that does not make them my team. :rolleyes:

Nobody here in Oz is going to support an English Premier League team that they will never be able to see on TV. The only chance you have of seeing your divi 2 & 3 teams is IF they make the last stages of the FA Cup.

So are we all bandwagon supporters if we don't support League Championship teams and below. Are you the only true supporter of english football there is. Sorry pal, but its alittle hard for me to support anyone else when my entire family comes from Woolwich, where The Arsenal originated, and also when your Grandfather played for them. He worked at the Woolwich Arsenal. He also played for Preston North End, of which I have an FA Cup runners-up medal, but its a little hard to be super passionate about them when I can only find out whats been happening via. the net. When I am in the UK, I will always try and watch a Preston game. Unfortunately we live quite a few thousand miles away, but that does not alter everyone on this forums' passion for the beautiful game, so get off your high horse you muppet!

I think he's suggesting the question should've been "Which English football side do you follow?", rather than being Premier League specific.

I'm a born and bred Arsenal supporter too, never had to follow a team in the lower ranks, but I would only have the one English side should we ever slide. Reading your passion, I'd assume if Arsenal copped relegation you wouldn't follow any particular PL side, only Arsenal in England.

Now you see what Supermercado is on about?

Lucan, it is the above statement that riled me up. If someone supports a Premier League club because it has Aussies playing for them , and those players then change clubs, I have no problems with these people. Its there choice, but at least they are starting to become interested in the beautiful game. I'm sure at some point they will then begin following a side more passionately and eventually support that team regardless of who plays for them. The Premier League is the big show, is televised down under, and has some of the best players in the world playing exciting football. Not many of the guys on here actually follow the bandwagon sides like Man U, which shows to me that Aussies aren't bandwagon supporters.

Yes I would follow The Arse, regardless of whatever division they played in, but then I have fairly strong ties to the club. I was going to games in the early 90's when we were a mid table club. Luckily since then we have been spoilt in terms of the football our club has played.

[Madconvict]

wetham til i die!!!!!!!!!

also :D follow celtic to make up for all the pain!!!

[Madconvict]

that was WESTHAM as opposed to wetham-although our season is a bit fkin wet!! :eek:

Brilliant logic there.

Great generalisation :rolleyes:

[Champagne Football]

I think Supermerc's just questioning why there is a thread about what English Premier League team people support, when this is Australia. ;)
Correct me if I'm wrong.

However, as others have said, it's what is/was shown on TV here and is regarded as the highest level of club soccer by most. (You can argue the relative merits of Serie A and La Primera Liga, etc elsewhere.) :cool:

[Stargazer]

I've supported Chelsea since the 70's. My favourite player was Zola who I just loved. Now days its Frankie Lampard. Robin from the Netherlands who is still only 20 y.o, has a huge career ahead of him. I thought the game between the Blues and the Gunnars early this week had everything - one of the best games I've ever seen.

[Vinny_Jones_Jnr]

wetham til i die!!!!!!!!!
You're a fuken mug!
Why use the Millwall slogan as a west ham one...
Fuk off u scum

[Ante Pavelic]

Yeh u mug, i agree with Vinny Jones Jnr, how dare u make comments like that, who do u think u r ? :mad:

On the one hand you carry on about beong nationalistic cro and in the next you have an english user name and try and speak like a geeza. Bit confused there eh, sunshine!

[Vinny_Jones_Jnr]

What's it to u?
U probably came up with that user name and decided to go for Ass hole when the won the Premier League a few seasons back

[Rooneymad]

I support Fulham.

[Gooners Away]

Perhaps you should go back and read this forum from the start and then your questions will be answered.

[Kieran]

Well I AM a Manchester United supporter. Not a glory hunter might i add. My Dad was born in London and supported Manchester United because of the mercurial Sir Bobby Charlton. Legend, that man is

[kevin_kyle]

Go Stoke!!!!!!!
But yeah I go for Arsenal.
Arsenal vs Stoke City on the 8th of January in the FA Cup is proving a large problem for my brain...

[Bendigo Blue]

omfg dude. y copy me?

Not copying - just something we happen to agree on.

[Bendigo Blue]

My Dad was born in London and supported Manchester United

LOL! Of course he did
;)

[kevin_kyle]

And I dislike Manure the most of all. But that really goes without saying.

[semja]

Go Stoke!!!!!!!

You would be a very brave man to back Stoke City in that game

[Kieran]

;)
:D I know it sounds stupid, but its true.

[Bendigo Blue]

:D I know it sounds stupid, but its true.

I'm sure it is. I was referring to the running joke that Man U supporters don't actually live in Manchester. ;)

[Gooners Away]

You would be a very brave man to back Stoke City in that game
But at least he'd be honest

[kevin_kyle]

You would be a very brave man to back Stoke City in that game
I know....but i might.
Rumour has it that Arsenal will be playing the kindergarten team again....and Stoke seem to play well against better teams.....well alright, Sunderland and Wolves.... so you never know.

[Kieran]

I'll be supporting Stoke to knock out my mortal enemy :D Imagine Akinbiyi slotting the winner? Rotherham have a Division 3 team i think. Fancy them to lose lol

[kevin_kyle]

Rotherham will be up 2-0 and then they will get pegged back and will lose the replay:)

[Kieran]

:D Definitely. Its the Merry Miller way of life

[kevin_kyle]

Merry all the way back to League One

[Madconvict]

And like Millwall til i die is a copyright...get a life!!! scum.......you support millwall you fkn pussy...fk off to the new den.......ICF always kicked millwall's arse....tosser!! :mad:

[kevin_kyle]

Who is the ICF? I'm not being ignorant, I just don't know.

[Madconvict]

ICF was Westham's main hooligan firm...one of the top firms with Chelsea's Headhunters , Cardiff's soul crew etc....

still existing like alot of firms but very quiet since the big undercover police op's in the 80's..........

people talk up firms in australia but there don't really exist to the influential role of say Lazio's firm.

[Gooners Away]

Who is the ICF? I'm not being ignorant, I just don't know.

ICF = Inter City Firm

[kevin_kyle]

Thanks.
Millwall fans are pretty angry though.
Are they as a whole, the most violent supporter base in England?

[PMFC]

Manchester United and in the lower leagues Southend United

[...likesay]

The only team i genuinely support and love in the world is FERENCVAROS, but i have a soft spot for Palace and tremendous respect for chelsea, but for the record i don't actually support these clubs.

...likesay

Thats really interesting and I really respect that.
Why do you go for Ferencvaros?
They are Hungarian right?

[atlas]

I remember a few years ago in the Champions League a Hungarian team made the group stages and did OK, now Like Say please correct me if I am wrong on this, it was Ferencavros wasn't it?

[Clint]

Isn't that the team that beat Millwall?

[kevin_kyle]

Yep they did Millwall over.
If Ferencavros are hooliganish the Millwall games could have been potentially pretty violent.
Were there any problems, I dont think I can remember hearing about it.
