Yey. Soccer <s>Footbal</s> season is here again!

[DanaC]

Well. Here we go again. The Premiership kicks off this weekend. Fans all over the country are gearing up to get really annoyed weith their team on a week to week basis. Plans will be made, matches attended, goals scored and hearts broken in almost equal measure.

Me? I'm not a major fan. I nominally support two teams: Man Utd, and FC Utd. But I don't attend matches or anything. Most of my mates are into football to a lesser or greater degree, and we often end up in pubs, watching the big screen, so I always end up getting drawn into the tales and gossip and transfer rumours etc. Every season, by the time we get close to the finals, I have developed an interest and then bang the season's over...and I always think, next season I'm following it from the start.

This time I have remembered yey.

Already Newcastle have had an injury scare (Goalie is out for first two matches), so that's at least one very nervous friend I have:P Since the Toons are playing my old hometown (Bolton) on Saturday, I shall be taking close note *grins*.

Anyone in here folllowing the season? Who's your team? Which team do you consider your most serious (bitter) rival, and why?
