Cheers for the pod lads. Out of curiosity Patrick, what other leagues do you watch?
Baffled you didn't know who Steven Taylor was or even Pompey.
It wasn't Pompey that I didn't know, I didn't know that The Posh was a nickname for Peterborough. I knew Peterborough was a club though if that wins me any points!
The main league I followed outside of our region was the MLS - mainly because the games are on at a good time to watch in the afternoon. However, as other things in my life have become more of a thing, I've followed this less and less, to the point where I'm just checking in on Colorado now to see how many losses old mate Huddo is up to now.
Basically, I just follow the A-League and the NZ leagues now, and I barely have the time to do those in the same way that I used to. The connection we have by being able to go to games, talk to players and coaches etc, nd be involved in Wellington leagues and a referee mean that I can connect to our local football far more that I ever could an overseas league that exists purely on the tele for me.
Hope this answers your question!
Completely fair enough; obviously you got in a bit later than most, so makes sense that you would be more attached to local football. English football was all we use to have, really.
Thanks for the pod guys. Need this damn season to start.
Meh, don't think it matters when you started. If you've continued to support through the ridiculous years we've had since, then that's enough imo.
I never really followed the Knights until Ricki took over for half a season.
