Justin_3d 1,140 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I guess it's just hard to accept and weird in general for a lot of English people who support an English club and support England in national competitions to be presented with someone of a particular nationality, who chooses to support a club in a different country, and then another different country for national competitions.Foreigners, if that word is allowed, are wanted here. It's just that some feel extremely passionate and strong about being born into a football club and country etc. and not choosing who to support (unless you just follow them casually etc.)idk. This isn't really my place to be saying anything to be honest.Personally, I'm a believer of supporting any club or country you want - just as long as it's for the right reasons.As long as it's for the right reasons, you can't question the authenticity of someone's support.And do you think that's a phenomena of only the European game?What about foreigners supporting the NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB and not liking the US country?So people can choose to follow a club from any part of the world, but just because they follow the club does not mean that they have to follow to death the country!

Ollie 4,400 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Shame u want to end it really, i kinda enjoy the dabate and argument even tho i don't show it in most threads. It's just the way i see things. Foreigners are more than Welcome here supporting who they want, i know lots of foreign Chelsea fans that i like and respect (Vedran u cunt) but Jesus you come to our Chelsea forum as 'The Madrid One', Create a Real Madrid thread where most of your activity is, talk about how amazing they are and their wonderful history is as if we didn't know who they are and then say you want Ronaldo to rip Spain apart. I just find it funny, that's all when Madrid is the Capital of Spain. Ok i'll leave it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Maybe he hates the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Almost like if i saw a fucking scouser take over Chelsea...That guy might not even be American anyway, i see hundreds of those caps even here every week.

Term-X 7,891 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Speaking about supporting and American club and not supporting Americans:^ Yankee hats are a fashion item over here, 98.9% of the people who wear them (and in many parts of the world) have never seen a baseball game before in their life.

Ollie 4,400 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Yeah lol i just edited my post before u finished that. Everyone wears em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Term-X 7,891 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 In fact, 90% of people who wear them over here would most likely not be able to tell you which american sport they participate in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Same as LA Laker Basketball tops or shorts altho i don't see too many here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin_3d 1,140 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 But that's the thing.If I use Ollie reasoning, I can easily come to you and say, "you hate America but you wearing something American"?. Hypocrite!That type of thinking is wrong!As a person is allow to wear whatever the hell they want, any person is free to choose whatever they want!

Ollie 4,400 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 It's down to you, i just simply state why i'm against it. I personally would only ever buy Chelsea or England stuff but that's me. I would never 'hate' America and wear a LA Laker Basketball top because i think that's hypercritical. I'd respect any country that provide a team that i love. Anyway... we're ruining this wonderful thread, let's get back on topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin_3d 1,140 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Your right.So talking about RM...well actually the manager there was a recent article I read from Sports Illustrated.Apparently it's been out for some time, but I just stumble upon it!

Justin_3d 1,140 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 What's So Special About Jose Mourinho? He hasn't lost a league game at home in nine years and is eyeing an unprecedented third Champions League title with a third team. Real Madrid's maestro may be the best coach in any sport, anywhereBy: Grant WahlArticle here:http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1182630/1/index.htm--------------------I have to say the guy took it a bit overboard by naming Mourinho as the best coach ever from any sports. As there have been some amazing managers in Basketball and Football.But I agree he is the best manager today.And it will be great if he ever comes to USA!

Ollie 4,400 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 His home record went a while ago actually but i do believe he is the best manager around and best i've seen. His man management skills are second to none Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Similar comparisons but i never saw Clough either, slightly before my time, he relegated Nottingham Forest when i was 7 lol but he had a great record, shoulda been England manager but wasn't to be. Clough and Mourinho have a very special bond with their players although Clough wasn't accepted at Leeds. Since i've followed football, i've seen documentaries on Jose and other stuff about him. He's the perfect person to run a football team. How many times do you see something like this? And thisHe'll always be a Chelsea man in spirit even if not in person.I'm forever grateful for what he gave us.A documentary on the great man, worth a watch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=pExkDO7xMGA&NR=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
