Raiders cos in the mid 80s got a Raiders shirt for xmas. Took to finding out about the NFL then, which was not particularly easy. Used to get the nfl almanac every season and study it intently. Don Lane was the boss.

Manchester united... well (queue jokes) was born in london with an arsenal supporting irish dad, my mums side were all cockneys and hammers fans, but my grandfather thankfully was from manchester. He got in first.

Port. Grew up in the glenelg area. Was never going to happen. End of.

Kinda liked the Miami Dolphins coz I thought QB Dan Marino was pretty cool

Followed ManU coz I liked the way Bryan Robson, Mark Hughes & Brian McClair played

Grew up in the Glenelg area in the 1960's, but my Brother-in-Law was a mad Port fan & a mate of Reg Beaufoy, he made me a Port member as a birthday gift in 1964

I grew up in Glenelg's zone too and much of the family barracked for them, but an enlightened older brother bribed me with a trinket to follow Port when I was 8.

Watched that film last night about the guy that franchised McDonald's to the world, pretty interesting but showed the little guy not dreaming big and getting screwed.
The McDonald bothers were bought out for 2.7 million in 1961 & made a handshake deal (lol) for 1% of all future earnings which was never honored (that's 100 plus mill the McDonald family continue to miss out on yearly) feckin' hell!
