Not necessarily, it could lead to some localised flooding the Liverpool
area.

And mini-tornadoes of rage from armchairs around the Home Counties on
that dreadful Radio 5 phone-in.

I used to listen to that but it hurt my head. Football, even more
than most sports, requires the adminstrators, managers, players and
above all, fans, to switch their brains out, if they have one in the
first place, of course. Having said that, I love the game amd have
supported a team keenly since 1957 but no-one here will ever know
which. No clues.

Tudor, this mystery team hasn't just re-named their stadium by any chance ?!

Coincidentally, I too have supported a team since 1957, though less
keenly over the last decade or two as my interest in football has
gradually declined. The 1957 Cup Final was the first that I watched on
TV. Naturally I had to choose which team to support. Since Manchester
United's "Busby babes" were the hot favourites, I naturally chose to
support the other team, Aston Villa. Villa won 2-0, to ensure that they
would be "my team".

Yes, it had an enormous impact. Though I was only nine at the time, I
can recall reading the front page story in my father's newspaper.


I've talked about this with a friend's father, a very knowledgeable
football fan (a Stoke follower, for what it's worth) who said a fair
part of their fanbase was post-Munich. And then the 3rd wave of prawn
sandwichers in the 1990s.

I don't have a leg to stand on, though - I'm a glory-hunter as well,
only my current team isn't as lofty as the aforementioned United and
is currently doing woefully under the guidance of one of their Premier
League legends. I'll let you do the math...
