By Mike Grady Twitter: @mikegrady87 Website: http://www.michaelgrady.co.uk/ Why Sunderland? I have no idea. In my formative years, I had two sporting influences; my sister’s boyfriend and my cousin. They were both Newcastle United fans. At the time Sunderland were near the bottom of the Endsleigh Divison One while ‘The Entertainers’ were competing at the zenith […]

By Neil Sherwin Twitter: @neilsherwin Website: http://backpagefootball.com/ Why Shelbourne FC? Shelbourne were the local club to where my grandparents lived in Dublin so in 1989 myself and my dad walked to Tolka Park to take in my first ever live game. Unfortunately Shels got absolutely hammered by Dundalk but I was captivated by the whole […]

By Paul Giess Twitter: @ItsStillAyoba Website: http://ayoba.blog.com/ Why Ajax Cape Town? I have supported Walsall all my life but when I moved to South Africa in 2007 I knew it was going to be hard to keep up with action on the other side of the world. Friends advised me that this was golden opportunity […]

By Paul Barnes Twitter: @paulibarnes Website: http://blogs.spokenword.ac.uk/paulbarnes/ Why St Mirren? Born in Paisley and raised in Renfrewshire, St Mirren are my local club. My father was a big football fan but having originated from Caithness in the Scottish Highlands, he didn’t support any particular side, therefore my Buddie love wasn’t exactly in the genes. My […]

By Rob Marrs Twitter: @MarrsioFootball Website: http://leftbackinthechangingroom.blogspot.com Why Liverpool? Certainly not familial or geographical! My mother is from Dumfries and supports Queen of the South and (jaw-droppingly!) Leeds.

Before my birth my parents went to Newcastle games and I grew up listening to their stories such as the FA Cup Final loss in 1974. My grandfather used to balance myself and my older brother on his knee and sing about […]

by Sian Ranscombe Twitter: @SianyMacalarny Website: http://ibelieveinarsenal.arseblog.com/ Why Arsenal? I’m fortunate enough to come from a family of Arsenal fans, so there was very little chance I’d ever support anyone else. I was born in Yorkshire but my dad insists that had we not moved back to London when I was four months old, we’d […]
