Footie!

Football… a game where 22 guys (or gals) running after a ball + 2 guys (or gals) running on a straight line waving flags + 1 guy ensuring nobody is “touching the ball” or “touching one another”

Dunno why people liked the game so much. As for me, not really a fanatic but watches the game occasionally. Started watching the game about 10 years back when most of my friends are already a supporter to some clubs. Every now and then people will ask… “who do you support?” Bored with the questions, I just chose a club… MU.

Kinda have different feelings when watching a game when you are supporting the team…a bit more exciting cause you get to jeer at the losers and vice versa. Anyway I didn’t support MU for long….. was really put off by some of the snobbish and LCLY supporters. Remember that was like 7, 8 years ago….

Then I started seriously looking for a club to support… and I found one! The club was with ambition but a single player attracted me to the club… Middlesbrough and Juninho! That little Brazilian was amazing and I like the supporters… hard-core fans… mainly hooligans from the north!

In a stadium, you can differentiate fans from MU and Boro…. MU fans are a bit quiet… most of them foreigners and was there just to watch their favorite team play…watching quietly. Boro fans are fanatics…very loud…very emotional…full of actions (i.e plenty of vulgarism, songs and hand signs) :)

Well after all this years…. We are in the UEFA Cup finals….finally something big for the club. Hope we can beat those *&@! Spaniards and bring the cup home to Riverside!

Boro! Boro! Boro!
