Stu I've been married for twenty years, connection is one thing but the real success is in Love, Passion, Commitment and Honesty. I don't follow any local soccer club because it's always had its roots in sectarianism, just like the two Glasgow clubs and to some extent both clubs in Liverpool. Liverpool and Everton with good leadership left that issue behind. I can stand at Anfield in the knowledge that everyone is equal everyone is there because of their love in Liverpool FC. You need to read some history my friend and see that where your born or where yuo live is very often not enough, what is in your heart is far more important.
There's a very famous quote by the 'Duke of Wellington' (who was born in Dublin) when someone called him Irish " If as dog is born in a stable does that make him a horse"
"Football Is the greatest democracy of all, That's providing your not Italian and pay the referee" Big al 2006
