Fan or Supporter??

I enjoy watching all grades of football from the Sunday league up to the World Cup,

The only two teams that disappoint me are Town and England,

BECAUSE,

I do not care a stuff about other teams just I enjoy watching football.

I’ve always received plenty of abuse about being a supposed ‘two team w____r’ for having allegiances with Grimsby Town and Manchester United. I’m from Urmston in Manchester originally and moved to Grimsby at an early age when my mum (originally from here) came home. Since being old enough to appreciate the game, I have followed both teams, had shirts and other merchandise etc. My first match was seeing Town in 1997 and have been going semi-regularly since (only ever had one season ticket as I can’t go to every game due to my work schedule involving weekends) whilst at the same time going to Old Trafford as often as possible. As well as this, I also go and watch Cleethorpes Town and Grimsby Borough, so does this make me a four team w_____r? I don’t really know, all I do know is I enjoy football and will continue to do so

Good for you Dan,, I think most on here would understand that,

The W..kers they do not like are the ones who do not support their home team but join the band wagon of a successful club that they have no connection with.

Only two teams can elicit the same feeling in me, GTFC and England, and it's definitely stronger for GTFC. I could go and watch Barcelona v Real Madrid, with a plethora of world class players on show, appreciate the skill and the passion of the fans, but ultimately, would never ever feel what i do watching Town. Nothing will ever match that feeling watching Town win promotions under McMenemy, Kerr and especially Buckley, who got us playing some of the most exciting football I've ever seen at any level. I think this is what's kept me going for the last 15 years of almost universal dross. We get the odd glimpse of how it used to be, the Wembley win over FGR for example, but i keep up that affiliation, hoping that one day it will return, and if it does, there is no better feeling. It's been a very thin gruel for a very long time, but if and when it comes good, the wait will make it all the sweeter. No other team, apart from maybe England winning a major competition, could get anywhere near to that.

Darlo Fan, but got a massive soft spot for Grimsby and I can enjoy the Town games aswell as feeling drunk off when they lose.

So Darlington is your local team and Grimsby your bigger team you follow from afar!

I find it very difficult to get excited about watching anyone else but Town and England, its in my blood, it started in 1972,its my late fathers fault he used to drag us to BP when he was home from sea. Being honest when I lived in Newcastle I got free season tickets to watch them through work and I went quite regular because I couldn't get to GY, the trouble was I felt no emotion for them, win loose or draw I wasn't bothered, i never got butterflies in my stomach on match days like I do when I pull a town shirt on and set off to see my beloved mariners.So the answer to the question Fan or Supporter is neither because I am GTFC and they are me,UTFM

I'm a fanatical supporter of GTFC... just the one club for me, although I do follow the results of a few other clubs as a result of where I've lived and had mates who have allegiances to their own (local) clubs

Since I was 7 or 8 and my uncle took me to an Arsenal game at Highbury, in the mid 70's, I've always followed their results and wanted them to do well. I was going to Grimsby games from before then and it's so its always GTFC who have been my team.

I've been a regular to BP throughout the years. There was a little break in the 90's were I didn't get to many games but I've been a season ticket holder for most of the past decade.

I'm not sure if following Arsenal's results and wishing they do well (unless they are playing Grimsby ofc) takes anything away from my support of GTFC.

Football always seems more interesting to me when you have a vested interest in one side winning for one reason or another.
