I use to watch Bolton Wanderers and Man City when I was in my early teens, both teams had there up and down moments lol. Now, Bolton looks like they are going out of existence. While Man City are prospering.
I I remember going to watch Bolton vs Port vale, me and my brother driving through port vale we got lost, so we decided to follow a car with vale stickers and scarf and out of the window. Ended up on some estate going to a B-B-Q. My brothers idea not mine.
Manchester United since about 1970 but always followed and gone to local teams to watch if not at United. so I've watched Crewe Alexandra in the Tony Waddington days and early Dario Gradi days players seen at this level Geoff Thomas (England and Wolves) Bruce Grobbelaar (Liverpool ) Rob Jones ( Liverpool and England) and others! then used to watch Yeovil Town.
Honestly I don’t, they have to much strength in depth. I think we can still do them in a game or over 2 legs, but over a season they are too strong. Klopp didn’t strengthen the team unlike pep but if the bad injuries from last season perform( ox and lallana) then that really gives us something different and like a new signing so I can understand his reasoning in wanting to keep the same group together because they know what those 2 can provide if they stay fit. I can only hope the city trip up a few times and we don’t. Too many draws so too many points dropped last season.
I try and support my local team. Currently, this is Bury. And they are in grave danger of going out of business with their first 3 games of the season postponed due to financial concerns! The weekly wage of cast-offs like Alexis Sanchez and Gareth Bale would sort them out. Football is a brutal business. I'm not really sure how Bury have got into this mess, although the new owner has always had his eye on Gigg Lane to redevelop as a housing project. If (when) Bury goes tits up, the next local team will be Bolton who are also on the brink of going tits up! With the loss of these two historic teams, I can always look to the proud and traditional Salford City who haven't overspent at all to reach the football league. Other than those, you may occasionally see at the DW Stadium.
The standard answer in my youth was St Mirren but that was simply to avoid being beaten up, the true answer from me is none.
Yeah your right, like pep he is not known as a long time stayer as a manager. I’m sure it will be Bayern as his next port of call. Unless for a big money move to Spain.
Klopp will stay till the end of his contract, made some signings for the future but everyone wants instant success now and should have signed a goal-scoring midfielder cant see the present one getting more than 10 goals between them all season, look at past teams keane,viera,lampard etc they won the premiership when the front line was not scoring another good season if we come second.
