  By Kirsten Schlewitz Twitter @7500_Kirsten Website: www.7500toHolte.com Why Seattle Sounders? Despite spending many of my formative years in both California and Oregon, I always identified with Seattle, where my mother’s family is from and where I spent most summers.

By Chris Carra Twitter: @ForzaSwansea Website: http://www.forzaswansea.com/ Why Swansea? Despite living in Swansea, I haven’t always been a big Swansea supporter. Having an Italian father, I always tended to ignore British football to support the Italian sides while growing up. However, a few years back, seemingly every conversation I had with a man my age or […]

By Layla Carlsson Twitter: @LaylaCarlsson Why Boca Juniors? It’s all Fernando Gago’s fault, really. Gago is a former Boca player who joined Real Madrid [my other big love] at the end of 2006, and I noticed in interviews how his eyes and face would light up whenever he spoke of Boca Juniors, which triggered my […]

  Now in my 21 years or so of watching football, there has been no better defender in the world than Paolo Maldini. He started with AC Milan aged 16 in January 1985, I was only 8 months old, 25 seasons later Paolo retired from football aged 40 & he never left Milan! He played […]

By Stuart Fuller Twitter: @theballisround Website: http://theballisround.co.uk Why West Ham United? I come from a family of West Ham and Charlton Athletic fans so I wanted to be different and started supporting Arsenal. Now this wasn’t the silky smooth, score the perfect goal Arsenal.

  By Shaun Wheatcroft Twitter: @KCommonsluvspie Why Forest? When I was younger, like many teenagers I wanted to make the big time as a professional footballer – football represented the picture-perfect career for me. That of course never quite materialised.

Ok so AC Milan took a big step forward to winning the Scudetto by beating a lacklustre Juventus side one nil. Milan looked like they were lacking that killer instinct that would sink the Old Lady when in the 68th minute Captain Rino Gattuso scored his first goal in over three years to capture all […]

For those of you who regularly read this site you will know I have recently fallen in love with Serie A again. I have decided to look back at my ‘Football Italia’ days in the 90s & early this decade & focus on players that grabbed my attention. I have managed to keep it to […]

By Stuart Harper Twitter: @StuartJHarper Website: http://trequartista.net Why Roma? Allegiances are seemingly forged upon ‘eureka moments’; those times when a team does something so remarkable that they’re indelibly endeared to you – or loyalties that are bestowed via the more orthodox ‘family inheritance’ route.
