Andrew 4747 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 In light of recent board admissions that essentially amount to it being pointless to follow Newcastle united in the hope of any success who has a second team, either lower league, abroad or just another prem team they route for (when not playing against NUFC of course)? What got you following them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trophyshy 7083 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Might start following Brighton next year, proximity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 15518 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Mainz, from living there (bit of a soft spot for St. Pauli too, same reason). Not exactly easy to zip across for every home game though. Been meaning to find a half-decent lower-league team locally but even that probably means trekking to Dulwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4747 Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 See I could always just say Burnley but they're in the premier league now as well.Get on an Accrington Stanley match now and then which is usually fun though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Used to watch Blyth Spartans a lot, but they are pony these days and the distance is a pain in the arse. I'm off to Wembley to see Gateshead in Sunday. If they win I wouldn't mind a season ticket to see some league 2 football next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonatine 11361 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Always had a soft spot for Fiorentina, although that is mainly because I liked their purple home strip Not watched any Italian football for donkeys years, might start again next season as it's got to be better than this dead from the neck down shite we have now.

Rayvin 5217 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 UK: Carlisle for me, largely because my dad supports them. I know they're a bit too close for comfort, but they've never been a threat to us in any form. Overseas: Juventus - must be the strip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4156 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Barcelona. The manner of their resurgence under Rijkaard. The ridiculous Ronaldinho. And because I dont think there's a better player to watch than this little fellow in full flow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonasjuice 0 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Real - love the Stadium, kit, history, they're always good entertainment one way or another and tend to have at least one player who's great to watch. Was a full kit wanker for a fair few young kickabouts. Can't wait for them to crush Atletico in the CL. And hey, if your going to follow Newcastle, a little foreign glory hunting can't hurt.

Dr Gloom 21912 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Got a soft spot for Everton because of family connections, my dad's team. Hate Liverpool for the same reason - my bro's team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizza 105 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Darlington as I was born here and lived here most of my life either side of a 10 year stint in Newcastle. Saw them win a trophy at Wembley, glad I did too as Newcastle have fuck all chance of getting there unless it's for a Playoff Final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Reading as they're my hometown club. Don't think I'll ever enjoy two seasons of football as much as the 106 team. Absolutely fantastic squad, that. Shame they all got their heads turned and didn't go on to do very well elsewhere. Always had a soft spot for Sampdoria as I liked watching Flachi play.

acrossthepond 877 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Adopted Palace shortly after the Cabaye sale as a second team. If you pieced together our first half of the season and their second, would that be a champions league qualifying team? Europa league I would think at worst.

JaMoUsE 0 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Dundee United, was my first ever kit cos it was cheap in Mcgurks sports in the town and me dad was a tight arse. Also follow Roma since my mams fella is Italian and a fan.Hoping they get Liverpool in the CL so we can go to anfield for it in the away end with the ultras.
