When did you start following football?

Three for me, and two for them.

For me it was during France 98 and our own U17 World Cup in 99.

Three for me, and two for them.

Coming from Glasgow, just after the midwife slapped me on the back in the delivery room.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

From the look of the photo it wasn't the back she slapped you on.

i kept up with a couple of European leagues.... other than that.... i never really bothered... you'd never see me going nuts during a game....

then we got Toronto FC and all that changed. a team to really call my own. sure MLS may not be up to par with certain leagues around the world... but i don't give 2 sh*ts what they're doing. they can circle jerk all they want about their teams and knock us little guys. but i know TFC and Phoenix supporters would have more class than that if we we're in their position.

come to think of it... i'm glad we arent.

Hey, what picture? The avatar and signature pictures are two of the more handsome players in the Thistle squad

Besides catching a game here there I never really followed a club or anything. Then I was totally hooked on the 06 world cup and read anything I could on that and soccer in general. And when I found out we (Canada) were getting our own MLS club I thought it was awesome to follow a club from the start and I've been hooked on TFC ever since!  

It's so sad to think of the years of soccer I've missed out on. :P

I started to get more and more into it after I watched some of the '06 world cup and went to a few of my mates footy games.

I can't remember much before the 1971 season - call it old age.
