david_carnell Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Team supported: Leeds United (1989-2012)Where from: SurreyReason: The first footie kit I was given was a lovely second hand polyester number in 1970s yellow by an Aunt. Coincided with the club's promotion from old Div2 to Div1 and subsequent championship win. A roller coaster ride over the following 20 years ensued.Footnote: The relationship ended recently. No final straw per se and it's with football as a whole and not just Leeds. All of it got to me. The vulgar sums of money; the chanting I'd be ashamed to let my son hear if I were ever to take him; the poor role models that the majority of footballers make; endemic homphobia/sexism; racism at my own club; poor sportsmanship; etc etc. I just couldn't be bothered to care any more. But I liked this little meme enough that I wanted to contribute. Hope that's ok.

SCSB79 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Teamm supported: RangersWhere from: No where really - born in Cyprus to Scottish parents (Forces brat), lived in Wiltshire, Gloucester, Dumfries, Glasgow, Carlisle, London and now the USA.Reason: Old man was a Rangers/Liverpool man but I didn't really follow either initally - from the earliest I can remember I was a huge Spurs fan... up until 1994/95 when we moved north of the border and was finally exposed to the craziness that is the Old Firm. Didn't really support Rangers until season 97/98 when they were stopped by Celtic winning 10 in a row.Still route for Spurs, but Rangers are my number 1.

david_carnell Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Yeah, I got the full thing too. Yellow top, yeloow shorts with blue trim and yellow socks. Something like the attached.Albeit a miniaturised version on a 7 year old boy in 1989!Edit: From the website I pinched that image from, this rings so true:The new concept quickly caught on and while kits supplied to the clubs were well made, using natural fibres and embroidered detailing, those sold to the public were manufactured as cheaply as possible in nylon with heat-applied plastic logos that broke up after a few washes. These cheaply made replicas were sold at two or three times the price of the generic copies that preceded them and became must-have items for the nation's young fans, proudly worn on the school playing field and at the weekend kick about in the park.

DaveR Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Team supported: Ipswich Where from: Ipswich Reason: My Dad and his dad were football mad Geordies transplanted to Ipswich who decided to support the local club. They took me to my first game aged 6, season 74-75, the early days of the Robson glory years, then to almost every home league game, plus cup ties, European games and a various away games until about ten years later when a Saturday job and a girlfriend intervened, but by then the die was cast.

Jah Lush Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Four-nil away to Villa. Eight changes to the side that played against Cardiff on Sunday. Three games in six days and Jermain Defoe has scored six goals in three games. That's a fantastic response from him after losing out to Soldado in the Premiership. That's not bad is it? I really hope we can keep this form going against Chelski at White Hart Lane at the weekend. Can't wait to take my seat there early Saturday afternoon. COYS!

El Pibe Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 It's a head and heart dilemma isnt it.But just to be interesting again would be nice. I can take inconsistent and frustrating, got to be better than dully effective with no strikers.
