AtariLegend Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I'm highly skeptical since I've seen this before, but we could actually win this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graeme Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Why are the Norwegians in here passionate Manchester United fans? I can't really imagine caring about a club outside my own country unless I'd lived where they played and ended up going to games or something... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all Norwegians who are into football have a favorite English team. It goes back decades when Norwegian TV started airing English matches (even before BBC did). So we all got hooked (or rather, our parents did). Usually one has a local club and an English club. I think it is a bit of a coincidence that both AslatIE and me are United fans, most of my Norwegian friends are supporters of Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal.

DieselDaisy Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Your football team is supposed to represent your individual community, and yes, for certain teams with aggressive derbies their religious sect (and in the old days professions, colleges/universities and societal classes) so that when your team beats a team it is your region beaten that region. Newcastle United beating Sunderland FC is Newcastle (city) beating Sunderland (city). Regional bragging rights are thus awarded. The whole notion of ''Geordieness'' is in fact bound up with Newcastle United (I am from Northumberland and a cricket fan so a bit of an outsider to this affect but it is true): Milburn, Supermac and Shearer, St James and Broon Ale. PS I have no problems with having a ''second team'' - I do this all the time when England get booted out of the world cup, and I do it in cricket where I have a sort of list of ''favourite neutrals'' - but not surely at the expense of your local team? I for instance support Northumberland CCC in the minor counties (fiver to get in; watched by 3 old blokes; pavilion totally clapped out; never win anything).

Why bother with the Manchester? Why does the ''Manchester'' precede the United? What is that Manchester supposed to represent? We are not Americans whereby their sporting teams get shifted around to different cities as franchises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor does the rest of the millions of people around the world who supports English football clubs. This is just another of those occasions when you have to wake up and realize that the real world isn't identical to how you think it ought to be.
