senorsoupe Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) I follow a lot of teams on twitter so there are a fair few but here are some I pay particular attention to Fort William, just because I love an underdog Leicester, the first professional football game I saw live was Leicester v Hull in the Championship in 2006 and had a lot of fun Montreal Impact, I don't follow MLS closely but as a born and raised Quebecois I always keep an eye on the Montreal teams Napoli, had a good time when I went to see them last year Lazio, partially because I have seen them live (in 2008 when they weren't very good) and partially because of some brilliant FM saves. Inter, when I first starting following club football they employed Roberto Baggio who was my first football hero so I have always had a soft spot for them Reggina, my wife's family come from the Reggio Calabria area so I keep an eye on them as their home team Edited March 24, 2020 by senorsoupe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkinsbaldpatch Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Wigan, simply through playing as them in Premier manager 95 on the mega drive, I'm sure they were in the bottom divison at the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cptn Hooch Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 (edited) Notts County as my Uncle moved down that way when I was a boy and began following them so he'd keep telling me about them when we saw each other. I have a tendancy to look out for The Rangers* scores as the guy I work with and a few mates are supporters...always fun to have the ammo when they get beat. I also look for Airdrie results as another of my mates is a fan and we used to go to a few games Edited March 27, 2020 by Cptn Hooch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tongue_tied_danny Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 On 24/03/2020 at 11:20, atfccfc said: 1.FSV Mainz 05. I have family that are from Mainz, And I've been to see them a few times. Barnsley, Man City, Inter Milan, East Fife, Raith Rovers and Edinburgh City through friends and work colleagues that are supporters of them. As well as Aldershot Town and Celtic (my two teams who I'm a supporter off) I also follow Woking FC results. As I used to go watch them as a kid along with Aldershot. I saw Mainz get pumped 4-1 by Aachen at home during their promotion season in 2009. It was at their old stadium. I followed their results in the top league for about a year or so after that and promised myself I'd go to the new ground. I've never got off my arse to do it yet and tbh I haven't checked their results for a few years. aside from the Mo i don't follow any other teams these days although I keep an eye on Scottish and English results generally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I always look for the results of the other Fife teams, regardless of whether they are in our league or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marten Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 In The Netherlands I always had a soft spot for Veendam & RBC Roosendaal, funnily enough back then the 2 professional clubs furthest away from each other in The Netherlands, both at opposite extremes of the country. At both I know a fair few supporters and they are very welcoming clubs. I went to the odd game when my own team (Excelsior) weren't playing. Sadly, both went bust a few years ago, so I guess nobody else wants me to develop a "soft spot" for their club anymore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) Atalanta - Been "my" Italian team since the Italian fitba came on Channel4 and me and my mates all chose a team to support. In absolute wild eyed dreamland watching the last three seasons in Bergamo from afar. Made a few games over the years as well. Buckie Thistle - When my missus moved over from NZ she had no knowledge or interest in Scottish football but we were buying mugs for her new place and I picked one with blue and white hoops and called it a Morton mug. She picked one with green and white hoops and asked what team she should support. It wisnae gonna be Celtic so it was Buckie Thistle for her and she would ask how they got on when I was checking Morton scores. For her first birthday in the UK I wrote to Buckie explaining why they had a new fan and they sent a birthday card to her with two free tickets. Walthamstow - My local team when I lived in London. To a lesser degree we can add Clapton/Clapton CFC as a few of my pals down there follow them and there's a good link up between the two teams. On the other end of the scale I always look out for the St. Mirren, Airdrie and Old Firm scores hoping they all get humped.

Arthur Orton Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 In Italy it would be Sampdoria from the Italian Fitba was on 4 and they had Gullit, Lombardo etc. Holland would be Utrecht after going to a game and getting totally pished and having a great time. Spain I have always looked out for Betis after taking them to league glory in LMA manager back in the late 90s I also look out for Danish lower league team Frem after spending a freezing afternoon watching them due to play. In the Czech Republic keep an eye on Bohemians who I saw play in a ground overlooked by some beautiful buildings. My favourite South American team are the magnificently named Jorge Wilstermann in the Bolivian top flight. They are named after a young pilot from the area who died in an aviation accident. I keep an eye on most leagues tbh and always love to see an underdog buck the trend and win a league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor1874 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I usually like to read all the results from the top 4 divisions in England and Scotland, plus results from the major European leagues. Within them, there's a few clubs I like to keep an eye on an wish well for no real reason. Outwith these leagues, I like to keep tabs on teams I've personally visited, like Valur Reykjavik and Brondby. No real reason for seeing these teams other than they were playing when I was in the area. Haven't seen PAOK yet, but I've a Greek mate who supports them and have watched a few games with him, so keep tabs on them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottmcleanscontacts Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Keep an eye on Jeanfield Swifts, used to go and watch them now and again when Saints were away when I was young. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Having been to a Hampton and Richmond Borough game earlier in the year “the Beavers” are now a team whose results I follow. I’ve always liked beaver 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivo den Bieman Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Carlisle, Workington Reds, Scunthorpe are all results I look for down south. I have family near Dartford so usually take in 1-2 games a season there when visiting. I watch the Broch in the HL if Montrose are far away or I fancy a change. Abroad, I have in the past watched Željezničar in Sarajevo and Vardar in Skopje so keep an eye on them. Enjoying the Belarussian league at present but not quite settled on a team there yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR96 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Córdoba CF. My ex did a semester abroad in Córdoba when we were together, and I went to a couple of their games whenever I was over visiting. Needless to say since I started keeping an eye out for their results they’ve been relegated and are just generally shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
