Oxford Til I Die.

Ramon Diaz's yellow and blue army.

In Scotland, how can you not love Queen's Park. Only amateur team left in Scotland. No wages, no transfer fees, no contracts. their players all leave for free when they become good. Also play at Hampden Park, despite average attendance being similar to Limerick
And East Stirling-lads, you have to stop giving away leads.

AFC Wimbledon for me - the club set-up by Dons fans when the move of Franchise FC to Milton Keynes was approved.

Am a shareholder and go to matches when I'm not hung over, but since I've moved away from Wimbledon it's harder to get out to see them too often.

The club is a phenomenal example of what organised fans can do. Their structures and ambitions would wipe the floor with practically every club in Ireland.

Any Irish club fans thinking of setting up a Supporters Trust should speak to the Dons Trust for help and advice first.

Looking good for back-to-back promotion into the Ryman Premier this season ! Just need Franchise to get relegated to make it a perfect season....

Shelbourne fan from when I grew up watching them in the stands.
Manchester United from when I was a kid they came out to play at Shelbourne.
Celtic fan because i'm an Irish Catholic.
Milan because I grew up watching them in the early 90s when I was a kid. I am one of a few who actually appreciates sound defensive football and technique.
Athletic Bilbao after I fell in love with the club when in holiday in the Basque country. A real feel of a local club along with the home born player rule.
San Lorenzo in Argentina after all of those late nights and destroyed sleeping patterns when i'd stay up and watch the Argie league on TV. No idea why I chose them.

Think so. There was an article about it in When Saturday Comes recently - one of the top-rated coached in the world now; not even the Oxford fans were sure why he's there! He's already won Manager of the Month...!

Indeed it is. Super Ramon and his Argie mates have come in to lead us to our destiny (league one!!!) Apparently they don't get paid but they get 10% of the club if we go up this season!
Also bringing in class players-incl JP raponi who used to play for river but was kept out of the team by d'allesandro and ortega.

RAMON DIAZ'S YELLOW AND BLUE ARMY

Ireland: Rovers
England: Liverpool
Spain: Real Madrid
Italy: Inter Milan

Real travel to Coruna this weekend. We have an appalling record there, only 1 win before, 3-0 in 1991, in Coruna's first season in the first division.

Milan derby on Sunday, and lads, don't lose 0-6 again. We have to keep the unbeaten run going.....

**onenilgameover** · 27/02/2005, 3:34 AM

Liverpool.....not sure why...but its always been that way....not as pasionate as I was when I was 11. It is a city in England after all...Ye really have to support your own...they don't need us...

In Europe

Championship - Sunderland (Irish Connection-Big Mick's comin back to make RMK's last year a livin hell like at the end of the day!)
League One - Doncaster Rovers (Cos me mate likes em)
France - PSG (lived there)
Spain - Real Sociedad (Aldo)
Italy- (Fiorentina) - Batigol

Can't stand the Delje myself. I'm no big fan of Partizan but I like to see them on top ahead of Zvezda.

I am an Everton Supporter and goto as many games as i can every season plus also look out for Torquay's results.
Not sure why i look out for Torquay maybe it has something to do with loving Fawlty Towers !

**OwlsFan** · 07/03/2005, 4:06 PM

Sheffield Wednesday. When the local supporters' club was founded amazed to find that there were other similar lunatics in Dublin and we had a club magazine called THE RARE OWL TIMES.

Man U - hah! The club of the glory hunter

Then why not Hibs? Just curious.

Chelsea, my da was living in London and I thought I'd pick a team from there when my ignorant friends asked me what English team I supported. I just didn't like the sound of Arsenal..........
