While I think this is extremely sweet and praise-worthy, I can't quite get behind it. They sound kind of wrong with American pronunciation... And also, like you, I'm more of a fair weather fan (definitely would not die for Portsmouth) and for me it's mostly about having something in common with my brothers. I'm worried the boyfriend is going to be more of a die-hard fan than I am at this rate!Little Britainerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483674331108503769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32592788.post-19423409849203036662008-06-02T13:59:00.000-07:002008-06-02T13:59:00.000-07:00We were in Manchester for the big Championships ga...We were in Manchester for the big Championships game..I had forgotten the obsessiveness and enthusiasm of english football followers. Thank god that Utd won even though it was a naff game. Businesses shut down early to release their staff so they could watch the game.<BR/><BR/>My son went to Old Trafford and got a baseball cap to watch it. Personally I think my kids got more from watching my brother jump on & off the settee during the tense moments!Daffodillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02604680101891968889noreply@blogger.com
