I am afraid, despite being a Phoenix season ticket holder; I would cheer on the mighty Ayrshire Killie!

I will never forget my first every Kilmarnock game (back in 1988)... We had to defeat Queen of the South (beaten Scottish Cup 2008 finalists) seven-nil to avoid going down to the bottom tier in Scotland.

I made the trip south to the borders (Dumfries) to witness my local team win 6-0, agonisingly one goal shy of survival.

However, I had caught footy fever and had a season ticket at fortress Rugby Park (home of the best pies in the UK!) for the next 14 rollercoaster seasons.

Kilmarnock FC - Scottish Premier League Champions 1965!

I'd support the Phoenix any day, don't really have another team

Sorry, it would have to be Arsenal. I've supported them for 30 years, seen them play live and will support them till I die. My year goes from August to May and my mood is determined by their weekend result. As much as I want the Phoenix to succeed on the park this year, I'm just not as passionate about them yet after just 1 year.
 
 Arsenal for me as well

What about The Mar PoL?

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

I've had to think about this for a while, I'm a big Liverpool fan and I have been since I was about 5, but the Phoenix is MY home team from MY hometown. I've gotta go with the Phoenix.

Audere est Facere (lit: "To Dare is To Do") --> my ego side

Supported Tottenham Hotspurs since 1980 at the age of 8.

They had style and wore white strips like our National Team.

Creative and innovated to try different things on and off the field.

Spurs have to be first. . . just

I don't live in Wellington and I do support NZ football as strongly as The Spurs but The Spurs are my club and created my coaching ethos that I use today.
