I don't want to jump on any of the major teams like liverpool or Man City. That would be way to bandwagon for me. Just want a consistent team thats not gonna get relegated. I'm an Auburn fan fwiw any suggestions?


Wolves or Leeds

There’s no reason to just pick the EPL, with streaming now days you can watch the Championship on TV too
Is there a place for you to watch game in the morning (and enjoy a lot of pints?)
What are people that go there fans of? Or the bartenders?
You work with any colleagues from the UK? Or have any clients from there you’ve become close to?

I'd go with Leeds personally. I would love to follow their "resurrection." Top 6 to 8 historic team in the UK. Fell on hard financial teams in the early 2000s. Relegated in 2004 to the 2nd division (the championship) then to the 3rd division (League 1). Have fought and clawed and at times choked causing a 16 year stay away from the Premier League.

Finally broke the curse and got promoted this year with the help of a historic Argentine soccer manager (Marcelo Bielsa) who has influenced countless top coaches in world football.

Leeds won the league title in 91-92. They are a sleeping giant and are owned by an awesome dude named Andrea Randrizzani. If my club, Arsenal, were owned by him, we would be incredible because he actually gives a frick.

IMO if Leeds survives this upcoming season in the Premier League, then they won't get relegated for the next 30 years.

No matter what club you choose to support, you have to go to the deep end. There is no changing your support. Go to Wikipedia and read everything about them (history, club legends, records, etc...). I'd also join a reddit forum on your club to continue to be involved.

If you don't want to be miserable following a dire horseshite club that will get relegated pretty much ever, I'd support one of the following:

Arsenal
Man United
Man City
Chelsea
Leeds (lump Leicester and Wolves)
Everton
Liverpool
Spurs (frick them tho)


If you want to support a club like Leeds who fell on hard times and are trying to get back to the "show" then go down to the Championship and support Nottingham Forest

Yea, but that’s LSU’s profile though.

He’s an Auburn fan, so he’s looking for a team that looks mediocre on paper, but wins championships on a combination of being good enough and lucky as fricking balls.

That was Man City pre -2013, which works fantastically with the Bama/Man United championship dynasty parallel.

Spurs have had Americans on the roster for the last decade.

...might be the reason they haven't won anything now that I think about it

Someone should start a thread comparing each premier league team to a football/sec team
