Hello manly men!
Are there any fans out there?
If so, who do you support? Do you watch the European game, particularly the English premier league?
I don't know much about the game in the States, only that I decided to support Salt Lake (Real Salt lake) for no other reason than I like the name, and I don't want to pick a team in either LA or NY.
But in Europe, I'm an Everton fan.
Everton are a fine team, with a long history in the game. We were the first club in Liverpool. We are the longest serving team in the top flight division. The last 20 years or so have seen a slight decline, but we're still there, competing with the best.
We've even got a church in the corner of our ground. We're the only professional club in England with a church!
Here is a great fan site:
Everton
Anyway, the point is, if you like football (or soccer), I would urge you to join the Everton revolution. Most overseas fans pick Manchester United or Liverpool. Big mistake. Those clubs lack soul and passion. They're corporate machines. But we're affectionately known as the People's Club. The man on the street supports Everton (hehehe).
Oh, and my name, Bob Latchford, is actually not my name at all. It belongs to an Everton great, who played for the mighty blues when i was a wee kid. He was my first sporting hero.
Soccer!
