Newcastle United - Summer 2010

Two main reasons:

1. I'm a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, and I read an article back around that time that compared NFL teams to EPL clubs, and it mentioned how NUFC fans were as passionate as Steelers fans.
2. I had been following the EPL for awhile without a club, so I needed to pick one. I figured why not root for the down-and-out recently promoted club trying to prove something.


and Barcelona - 2007ish

Thierry Henry and Messi.

Michael Owen from 98 World Cup though it wasn't until 2003 that I started following any club team.

West Ham United Football Club--2008ish. Went through a selection process and chose them because of they weren't a top 4 team and I had a friend who liked them and talked about them alot.

Barcelona--2010 or so. Watching Barcelona play allowed me to really see the game in a different way. The give and go along with precision passing along with the greatness of Messi sold me on them.

just don't even know where to start, then again typical steelers fans with a over valued sense of self worth. Are you from pittsburgh or parents from there. B/c yinzers don't like people who jump on their wagon.

steelers fans loads of bandwagoners from all over.

Newcaslte fans are more like seahawks if anything loud/crazy and isolated from the rest of the country for the most part other than sunderland/middlesborough
