[just_kick_it]

Thanks for the feedback everyone! Very interesting...
My list would probably be something like

10-Port Adelaide
9-
8-
7-
6-Aust Cricket Team
5-
4-
3-Strikers (BBL in general)
2-NRL
1-EPL (Arsenal & Leeds)

Tried to do the 100 fandom points but I didnt feel like it was fair to only give Port 78 points when during the AFL season my main focus is Port with half an eye on the NRL and then during the summer I enjoy watching cricket a bit and keep a quarter of an eye on the EPL

 

[Bacon Warrior]

Eags. Black Ducks. Leijonat. Coyotes. in that order

 

[cottoneyeYeo]

10- West Coast
9-
8- Australia Cricket Team
7-
6- West Ham, Perth Scorchers
5- Manchester United
4- Socceroos
3- England Football Team
2-
1-

 

[El_Scorcho]

60 Port Adelaide
20 Aston Villa
10 Miami Dolphins
7 San Antonio Spurs
1 LA Angels
1 Chicago Blackhawks
1 Adelaide sides like the 36ers, United, Strikers etc.

Taking the piss pretending to be into more than 3 teams imho. You're all a bunch of liars.

 

[Gibbsy]

Mine is so lame

90 Collingwood
4 Manchester City
3 Melbourne Victory
2 Cleveland Cavaliers
1 Feyenoord

I used to be way more into the Prem until Foxtel lost the rights. Always just had a passing interest in the NBA, will watch finals but don't care too much. Same with Victory, will go to games and follow the team from a distance but don't watch all that many games as a matter of interest. Feyenoord is my family's team over in Holland, I've watched them live too.

So I guess it's pretty much just the Pies now really. Men's footy, women's footy, and a fair bit of netball too. Otherwise my attentions have sort of diverted towards music and other stuff I guess.

Just a question. For convenience, shall I call you S(uper)C(eap)G(iants)?

 

[fancyscum]

55 - Adelaide Crows
30 - Norwich City
10 - Adelaide United
5 - Adelaide Strikers

Haven't included national teams because I find that kind of difficult to place against club teams.

Question. Has football always been spelt incorrectly in the description of this board? If so, I’ve never noticed.

Genuinely, yes. I've noticed it for years but never bothered to bring it up

Surely it stays now.

Probably not for everyone, but I've just seen that Classic football shirts have listed programmes from their recent exhibition on their website for purchase. I have a bunch of these sorts of books that I flip through for inspo when I am doing my designs and I find them really helpful.

When you factor in shipping from the UK and use a discount code it comes out to be just under $30. I figured at that price it might be worth it for some of the design hobbyists on the board where more expensive and less relevant design books might not be.

Love this, I'm a mad F1 fan and it's great to see some F1 on bigfooty. (The helmet is giving me Valterri Bottas vibes)

Quit my hospo job of 5 years last Friday with nothing lined up. Today I got a job offer in my chosen field after about a year of trying. Everything's coming up Milhouse!

Funny you mention that. Just had my first job interview yesterday after 9 months of applying to pathology labs and it sounded very strongly like they'd already made their mind up about hiring me. Time to quit HJs!

Everything's coming up Milhouse for all of us

Update: Got the job! FJGD's first Laboratory Assistant I'd bet
