Odd teams ppl you know support

[Reece]

A guy at work supports Derby, Preston and Liverpool.

Not really in keeping with the thread, but I have a colleague at work who ‘supports Liverpool’ (he’s from Bury) but he asks me every week “who we playin’ this weekend” and has no interest in the off-field stuff. He actually said this a few months ago:

”Yeah I’ve heard there’s some drama off the field. Don’t understand why. The Americans have bought us Torres, Babel and Mascherano. What’s the problem?”

This morning he said:

”Good win at the weekend. Saw the action on MOTD2. Who the **** was that on the left? Insooey or something?”

Ha! I used to have TWO guys exactly like that. Fortunately one of them left and the other one now works on the other side of the building so I rarely see him. Winds me up though

In a way it's wrong of us to turn our noses up at that level of 'support' or 'commitment' - who are we to enforce to standards of fandom?

But at least show a bit of ****ing interest FFS. He's even on occasion asked "how did we get on at the weekend"!! WTF?! If he gave a **** he'd have had more than ample opportunity to find out over the weekend.

my mate is a massive Barnsley fan

**** knows why he would pick them as his team

i know the kind - pains in the arses, I used to get it in my old work from a few people. There was one lad who was a bit of a loud mouth and had been there a few years, when i first joined he promptly told me he was the "biggest red in the company"*** - later that day my mobile rang and i'd not put it on silent so Ring of Fire blared out (at the time ring of fire was fairly newish say similar to the torres song now) and everyone started laughing and he started taking the piss asking wtf it was and what a **** song etc etc - two months later he comes up to me and with a beaming know it all kind of smirk says "i have something for you, you will love this - switch ur bluetooth on" - guess what the ****** sends me - ****ing ring of fire






*** - Same lad, he was about 35 - on my first day i asked him what he and another fella were doing for lunch and what most people do. It was the summer and he replied "probably head down the front and do some bird spotting" So i thought sound should be a few birds out in short skirts etc sounds good.

No, he actually meant Bird Spotting with his binoculars and a little note book etc etc - **** me i hated that place

I'll assume you live in Liverpool. How ****ing odd, he would almost have to go out of his way not to know would he not? Or maybe he finds you hard to talk to and this is the stepping stone he uses to an attempt at friendly conversation


I have a mate, who never really shown an interest in football for years. Then one day he says he liked Utd when he was a kid etc. However this **** only ever mentions football when Utd beat us. Everytime without fail, I get a message from him.

You've started me off shaggy - there was someone else, who regardless of form etc etc would come out with

"who we playing on saturday"

"Arsenal, on sunday"

"what time?"

"4pm"

"do you know what - i don't fancy this one - i reckon they will do us"

then monday morning

"how did we get on on saturday"

"SUNDAY!"

"oh yeah sunday"

"we lost 1-0"

"I knew we would - i told you didn't i that i didn't fancy it, what did agger play like"

"he's ****ing injured you cunt"

Good story but we drew with Arsenal 1-1 in both league games this season.

Pretty lazy there from the people's mod.

My Dad was watching the game with me on Sunday. He reckons that 'Javed Sherano' is the best Liverpool player... bless him, I didn't have the heart to correct him.

Now that would be an interesting forum.
