No Ordinary April
Hey RB, I’ve just read your comment and it’s true, I get that all the time. A typical conversation goes something like this.

“What’s your team then?”

“West Brom”

“Who?”

“West Brom...The Albion...The Baggie boys....you know, they beat Valencia in the Uefa cup back in the 70s, when Mario Kempes played ...and you know, Real Madrid signed the late, great Laurie Cunningham for almost a million quid. They tell me he became the first Madrid player to receive an ovation from the Barcelona fans.... ”

(This might trigger the memories of the over 35s but the conversation usually follows the same course whatever the age group).

“...and your real team?”

“ I’ve only got ONE team, you know...BOING BOING BAGGIES BAGGIES”
(generally perplexed looks all round)

Next question “And your Spanish team?”

(Without a shadow of a doubt) “Racing de Ferrol”

“And your real Spanish team?” ...and so on...

Sweder, I even get people commiserating with me every year when Man U get knocked out the champions league.... as if there’s been a death in the family or something. The conversation goes something like this...

“Manchester United are out” (waiting for reaction...)

“....GOOD...COZ THEY’RE NOT MY COWIN’ TEAM!!!!!”

errr, sorry.....
