I'm from Melbourne Australia, I have been a Chelsea fan for the last 10 years as my Nanna lived in Chelsea and brought me up on them and so did my dad who has supported them since he was a kid.
The fan base here is not that big but you will find the odd supporter floating around but most of them are clueless on results and even whats happening in the world of football.
I can tell you that most of the so called fans in Australia mainly support either Liverscum or Manure but more scum easily. I'm guessing for the main fact that "Harry Kewell" played for them but i like to look at it that most the people in my area are scum aswell and they just take after each other so that's the way i put it.
As for united you will find those fans that support them for the glory as they have been so successful in the last few years but when it comes to these so called 'fans' watching the games you will find 1 or 2 people that stay up to watch every game like myself.
A prime example of this, i guy walked into my work the other day with a scum shirt on, so i decided to test his knowledge and ask him the score between them and everton in the league the other day lol and he told me the final score was them winning 2-0 i just had to laugh but he didn't no what was funny.
But yeah these are the types of fans that you will find in Australia and than like i said you will find the 1 or 2 fanatical that will stay up at all hours of the morning to watch the team that they love.
