I know exactly what you mean, that feeling of supporting a club you truly love will never be experienced by people like my mate, who is a Man Utd 'fan', born in Surrey, and thought Old Trafford was in Liverpool.
Great post though, I agree with everything on that, being relatively young myself.
Pride, passion, saying you are a Saints fan with a grin on your face, it's what it's all about.. SOUTHAMPTON TIL I DIE!
