Danny G Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Was in the Red Lion last night, packed to the rafters with Utd fans and not a Manc accent within earshot. After jumping up when Chelski scored (who i hate but not as much as Utd) got asked got asked why i was for Chelsea when i aint from London, To which I replied " I take it your from Manchester then?" Nothing worse than Utd fans from Bolton!!!

beer_swiller Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Maybe I should read other threads before posting my own!! Same in Atherton. Athy Ams was full of red shirted w ankers, many no doubt never been to Old Trafford, most probably never seen United play. I came home and watched it in the comfort of my own home. Beer swiller

Danny G Posted May 23, 2008 Author Posted May 23, 2008 was there to think all bolton lads were stood at the bar did you see the one chelsea lad Yeah they were quite a few Bolton in, I also saw this lad who I used to go to School with, At one time or another over the last 20 yrs he has supported Liverpool, Bolton (although only briefly in 95), Man United and Arsenal and ive seen him wearing shirts and cheering each team on, depending on who were doing well. ragging tosser, IMO you support either the team from where you grew up or the team that been drummed into you from an early age.

Mounts Kipper Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 99% of these red shirted fans never go to a game, as fans they are irrelevant and should be treated with contempt and disdain they deserve.
