Dr Who? Posted 1 June, 2025 Posted 1 June, 2025 Have not been interested this season in the premier league. It is a snore fest. I tend to look abroad and the lower leagues for my teams. Oh and Scotland. 🏴 NEC - Nijmegen 🇳🇱 Hibs - 🏴 Carlisle - north and where I live Torquay - first team I ever watched live at a game in Torquay on a family holiday. Royston Town - Where I used to live and where my wife and good friends live. AFC Totten - Local small club near Southampton Eastleigh - used to be Swaythling FC and where I grew up in the flower estate. 1

The worst thing about The Championship is that the reward for doing well is promotion into the Prem. 😕 Feyenoord - My wife is Dutch and most of her family are Feyenoord supporters. A trip to De Kuip is always enjoyable. Luton Town - I was born there and had a season ticket in the late 80's. Chester - Lived there from '88 - '13 and had a season ticket in the mid-90's. Hibs - Always felt that they were a bit like Saints. Not a top team but occasionally upset the big boys, which I like. I now have family in Edinburgh so go along when I'm visiting. If I had to follow a Prem team it would be Newcastle, simply because I love the place.
CheshireSaint Posted 3 June, 2025 Posted 3 June, 2025 Hearts in Scotland - Used to go watch them in the mid 90's. Can't believe Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd supports Hibs (wait till I tell Dyl)! Chester - Where I'm from, live and watch now and again (Promotion next season) Ipswich - Soft spot just because my dearly missed mate supported them avidly Cricket - Hampshire Rugby League - Hull KR. I just picked them as a youngster Hate Disney FC with a passion. Hope we smash them home and away, draw them in the cup and smash them again. If we could send them down in the process, that'd be next level. 1

If I had to follow a Prem team it would be Newcastle, simply because I love the place. I have a massive connection to the Netherlands 🇳🇱 and love the place. Would love to live there. Went there for the first time at the age of 12 with school on the Nijmegen walks. 25 miles a day for 4 days. Big event. Then I was back last year of school more for the attractions around Amsterdam. (Not the adult ones though) Been back loads with 3 places I have worked having head offices there, and then met my now wife, and she used to go with her family to Duinrell in Wassenaar, which we have visited 5/6 times with our own kids. Day visits from there to keukenhof tulip gardens. The Madurodam model village. Since then found out that my surname comes from the Netherlands, but mostly Scotland. You cannot win them all. oh and NEC were the first foreign team I watched live abroad. 😀 1
Holmes_and_Watson Posted 3 June, 2025 Posted 3 June, 2025 The Premier League should never have changed from the Premiership. That's just one more reason I'll be supporting the tactical masterclass of Russell Martin, if he joins Rangers in the Premiership. 🙂

Golac's Iron Gonads Posted 4 June, 2025 Posted 4 June, 2025 very likely I won't watch a single game, not even highlights. No interest if we're not there and even this season it was like we weren't there. However, I'd like Forest to well. When I started watching Saints they, along with us were one of the best teams, so always had a soft spot for them.
Dr Who? Posted 4 June, 2025 Posted 4 June, 2025 Oh on another note, I did not watch match of the day once this season! Used to be a must watch, but I have watched loads of lower and non league games. Says it all. Also not interested the champions league, even though my 13 year old son bangs on about it… all the time. I end up turning around to him and talking about Royston Town or Torquay. We are foreign to each other 😂 2

If only the internet was around in the early '80s.. We've signed Kevin Keegan!
Patrick Bateman Posted 12 June, 2025 Posted 12 June, 2025 As a huge Kevin De Bruyne fan, I will support Napoli this season, lifelong KBD fan. 1

Turkish Posted 13 July, 2025 Author Posted 13 July, 2025 Looks like I chose the right teams to support 😎

leesaint88 Posted 14 July, 2025 Posted 14 July, 2025 Two teams I keep an eye on. Exeter - Wife is a supporter so I often go and watch a few games a season. Proper terrace & cheap tickets, the downside is I often have to see the in laws. De Graafschap - One of my close mates is a fan and he also follows Saints. Well supported club of a decent size who really shouldn't be bumbling around the Dutch second tier.
