If you don't have any personal connection or family ties to a club in England though, how is just picking a small team at random to be different any worse than following one of the big teams because you were exposed to them when you were young? As long as you grow to genuinely care about the team then what does it matter why you supported them in the first place? It would be a sad world if the only teams which got support outside their local areas were the handful of mega-brand super clubs simply because they get more media coverage
