    Do you follow a foreign club?

    Time to be honest!

    Is there a foreign club you follow?

    I am a Stoke City fan, as well as supporting Bray. My dad was born in Stoke and lived there until he was 20, so that's who I grew up cheering on.

    Everton though it doesnt really upset me if they lose and certainly not to the same extent as when Bohs lose...

    You've got no fans.

    Manchester United. To be honest i liked them when i was a kid but theyve become less important to me since. Still watch them when i can and want them to do well but im not going to lose any sleep over them. To be honest seeing Irish people in english club jerseys spewing anti-english rubbish when i have relatives who are english has really started to put me off the premiership.
    Ive been to a lot of Villa matches as well because their ground is quite close to where I have a few relatives.
    If shels played united it wouldnt be a tough decision as to who to support.

    I have a soft spot for dozens of foreign clubs but Chelsea, Marseille, Atletico Madrid and Stuttgart are the teams whose results I look out for most often.

    Is that your answer to "No, who do you really support?"

    No, but I did spend most of the last hour posting a photograph of a Dundalk player being head-butted after last night's match on a number of Ipswich Town forums.

    Grew up cheering on Liverpool and still support them but not as emotionally attached to them as I am to Mons. My Granny was a massive Blackburn fan and one of my uncles lived in Chorley all his adult life and was a Blackburn season ticket holder until he died last year. Apparently he paid the electricity bill when they were about to go bust some years back so Blackburn are kinda a second club I cheer on (unless they are playing against Liverpool).

    Supported Arsenal from the age of 10 - lived in Galway at the time before there was a local senior football team to support. Last time I saw them play live was back in the George Graham era though, and I've lived in London since and not bothered.

    Otherwise, Colchester, because i lived there for a bit and did go and see them play a lot. Oh, and Galway watch out - Col U put 7 past Norwich two week ago, the Arse put 6 past Everton last weekend, so I reckon Bohs are due at least 5 this week......
