I dunno, support your local team maybe? Through thick and thin? I don't get football anymore. It's fickle and corrupt. The most popular football teams in SE London right now are Liverpool and City. |

Serious question, do you have to change teams every time you move house? If I'd supported my local team all my life, I'd be on about my 8th team. Maybe more.
I support a team from a place I've never actually lived in, but my Dad is from there, lives there and took me to matches from being very young. My allegiance has never changed, even when we dropped out of the FL for a while. |

I'm fond of the answer "was my dad's team" makes sense to me. I live in London so many people I know have a second, sometimes third, local team. Cause their first is Polish or Spanish or whatever.
Of course you don't have to change allegiance when you move city. However, I think you have to actually support your team, with your actual voice and wallet, at actual games on rainy nights in the depths of winter otherwise you're not a supporter. Huddling in a pub shouting at a screen showing a stadium you've never been to doesn't cut it for me.
Am I just old? |

I used to follow Tranmere all over the country but it's much, much harder to do now. Just getting into some stadia in our league is hard work, many have single digit disabled spaces etc.
The last time I watched TRFC at Bolton , I had to go into the Bolton supporters area to get my half time refreshments. I honestly felt very vulnerable because Bolton and TRFC do NOT get on and it would only take 1 wazzock! My Dad is no longer fit to traipse around football grounds either, unfortunately. He sometimes goes to TRFC because he lives very locally and can walk there. |

You, in my book, are an actual supporter. Your money went to the club, not sky sports. |

"I'm telling Spurschick on all of you.
No snitching!!!!
Anyway she knows I like spurs "
I've always been a bit fond of spurs tbh. No glory hunters there. Just raw support. Helps that I bought Kane on his first season when he was 4m and won my fantasy league that year. |

Are you an arsenal fan? If not who do you support? |

Spurs are our team, both season ticket holders.
You support your team through good and bad.
I would rather win nothing than win something funded by money from dubious sources.
Our stadium is awesome with fantastic fans, one day trophies will come. |

Supporting winners is easy. Real supporters support the underdogs.

It's definitely an impressive ground. I was at the Liverpool game in December on the 9th floor. I didn't know stadia went that high! Wembley only has 5 levels. |

Sometimes people want to support a team that 'has a chance' rather than throw money around until it sticks like a lot of the top teams. It's more interesting rather than expecting a big win in each game which can get boring after a while. I don't support a premiership team by the way! |

I’m okay with that… pick a team, stick with it!! None of this 2nd team business!! (Especially in the same country!) and the death penalty should be applied to anyone who has a half and half scarf! |

I'm exactly the same, my Dad was Spurs, my daughter now 25 is Spurs. Daughter loves Spurs but in moments of desperation asks, why did you make me a Spurs fan? |

They may be shite, but they're currently less shite than 15 other teams in the PL.

They are still fifth and Arsenal fourth and as usual spuds finish the season with nothing surely even dim wit Kane is not stupid enough to realise staying there he is never going to win anything or does he want to go down in history as a decent player who never won a single title or trophy ? |

" Kane is nearly 29 a decent player I admit and I am a Gooner but he's won nothing and the older her gets his value drops plus foreign clubs will be award of his dodgy ankles He has to move this summer or he has missed the boat and Son the same ok he is younger but they will win nothing at Spurs |

How have I missed this thread, but had a good laugh
I’m spurs and always will be. I picked my local team and stuck with it. We might not be lining up the trophies, but I don’t really care.
I’ve got some fantastic memories from some classic games over the last 35+ years.
Yes we are spursy and normally mess things up, but we also have those delightful moments where we win or draw and people don’t expect us to. It’s amazing how disappear back to their holes when giving it so large prior to the game.
I’m realistic, of course it’s good to win the NLD postponed for way too long and make sure they didn’t clinch 4th at ours.
4th is totally in their hands now to keep or lose. 2 games to go. |

If you are trying to have a go at least get your quotes right
It was the fifth game at the new stadium that the hammers beat us. Prior to that 8 goals and 4 clean sheets
No European football, we’ve been in European competition every season since 2006, so assuming you mean Champions League which we were last in, in 2020 |

Personally I was disappointed that the European Super League didn't go ahead as it would have given us something to chuckle about, the 'battle of the bottom ' each year between Spurs and Arsenal knowing that because there would be no relegation they would have to repeat the same process the next year. |

My understanding is any shit from the Spurs stadium gets discharged and empties out via a sewage system at the library |

And West Ham have gone on to be so successful, not. If they beat Spurs they go on an open top bus ride it's about the most succesful they'll ever be |

Days like yesterday is why I follow Spurs. Beating your local rivals to stop them winning CL football at our ground, then watching them crumble under the pressure of it being in their hands before clinching the 4th spot on the final day of the season with a stroll in the park against Norwich. I don't think it's Spurs fans that are feeling depressed about their team this morning |
