Objectivity at its finest

Just noticed this thread.
Voted Bolton because:
1. I think we may have 1 Bolton fan already, but he doesn't post much.2. I think they may be plucky underdogs who'll surprise a few big teams this season.3. Kevin Davies fans to bring a fun challops discussion on a slow week,4. Lee looks like one of the most exciting young players in the league and watching him can put a big smile on your face.5. Owen Coyle looks like a genuinely exciting coach - 'good' but smart football that should see them steadily rise the table.6. Elmander will bring the lols.7. You can keep an eye on Arsenal loanees for me.

I almost wonder if there shouldn't be a "who do you support in the prem" poll just to see how many actual supporters of each team there are on dis ting. or at least a resurrected thread where we take a census of such a thing. if someone made the poll though there'd have to be a "i don't support any of these teams enough to vote for one" selection tho cos people would vote anyway even tho they never talk fb.

I'm now pleased by the thought of the army of Liverpool fan lurkers silently fuming at darraghmac's every second post.
― Merdeyeux, Thursday, 29 July 2010 23:10 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah well at least i know why i've always got 18 suggest bans, kudos to the 2 dudes that have some self restraint. or maybe they're on a holiday rota i dunno

I'm guessing most of the votes were so that darraghmac & co could slag you off/wind him up, but welcome to the Liverpool Fan Club!
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Friday, 30 July 2010 02:07 (thirteen years ago) link
just wanna say that imo i'm probably only in the chasing pack of those slagging rafa/LFC the past while, tbh, not teh ringleader or anything like it.

But hey there's a lot worse clubs to follow than Liverpool based on the criteria OP was looking for, partic if they can manage their expectations.
― "It's far from 'lol' you were reared, boy" (darraghmac), Friday, 30 July 2010 02:10 (thirteen years ago) link
as a red i was surprised by this result too. i doubt it's gonna glean too many cool points from the connoisseur but welcome to the club san te; we live in interesting times.

Good time to become a Liverpool fan IMO. It's a bit like joining the Labour Party right after the last election.

Now you need to pick a name and number for your shirt and learn all the songs what the fans sing and stuff.

Nope, unfortunately I had a really busy day and was barely home. fortunately I'm gonna have a lot of free time coming up so I can try to watch soon :)

five years late, I fucked over the poll and picked Everton. largely cos they met at least two of my criterion and have Tim Howard.
and Fox Sports 2 Go makes it easier to actually watch the shit on my time.
