English Football (Soccer)

Yet another Gooner here. I followed Dennis Bergkamp's career but now I am a fan of the club and not just Dennis Bergkamp. I am going down to London with cheevers, just booked yesterday. I too will be attending the Valley, thus doubling their average attendance, actually I will be sitting with the Arsenal supporters in an AWAY game their.

I am mainly going though, to see Highbury once before they move. Damn London costs an arm and a leg though.

It's nice in China getting to watch so much soccer for free. I can watch a game virtually every night from all the best leagues. As far as English soccer goes I love to watch Arsenal or Man U because of all the talent on display though I can't say I've become a supporter of either. I like Newcastle just because of Alan S. and they play a hardnosed style. Really the only soccer team I care about is Bayern and that goes back a long way to when Soccer made in Germany was about the only soccer you could watch.

As you can tell from my name, another Gooner here. Unfortunately I can't see anybody catching Chelsea this season, but anywhere above Man U is almost as good.

Once Arsenal moves into their new stadium they should have a lot more money to splash on some transfers which would help. The youth they are developing seem to be great players, but it's tough to win without a few more experienced players in the squad.

I love Celtic to death. In the Premiership I like Liverpool. Englands gonna have a good team this WC but I think Sweden is gonna be a sleeper =)!!

Go Ibra!!

I'm a huge fan of the European Champions!

I've followed Liverpool for over 30 years and was a season ticket holder for many years before moving to Canada. Tough times recently after the glory years but last years improbable Euro Cup win was especially sweet!

I watch alot, just like quality football but I enjoy watching PSG in france and Celtic in scotland particularly.

I will have to meet up with you two when you are in London, show you how to party London style! And yes it is expensive here, even more so for tourists because of exchange rates. In the best clubs downtown, it is about 45CAD cover and 22CAD for a highball. I hope you enjoy your time here though. You may even get to see how one inch of snow can shut down the whole city and get everyone so excited/annoyed (snow is rare here, but is predicted).
Hope to see you here mate, you want any questions answered just ask away.
