    I think you're getting a little but confused....

    There's more than one reason why people support a football team other than the location of their birth. Its not just about glory hunting.</p>

    Going by your statement me and Loko The Tyke should Leeds Utd fans. I can assure you, we're not. So, should I not be supporting Barnsley?</p>

    RE: I think you're getting a little but confused....

    Examples:</p>

    1) First match you ever saw. I have a mate who went to watch Barnsley at Reading and has following Barnsley ever since. He lives in Southampton.</p>

    2) Who your dad supports. Another mate from the North East, dad born and bred Barnsley, so his son follows the reds.</p>

    3) Your friends watch them- this is my excuse. When I got bored of rugby league when fev were booted out of Superleague- I could quite easily have gone to Elland Road and watched footy. My mate took me to Oakwell and I've been going ever since.</p>

    i support Barnsley because my dad does...good enough for me

    I go as often as possible even though I've never lived closer than 2 hours away, and unfortunately I'm usually by myself...but I wouldn't change being a reds fan for anything

    If he supported his local football team it'd be Steinkjær just north of Trondheim (Rosenborg).

    What the ??ck

    I was only posting a toungue in cheek response and Jay throws his toys out of his cot. I know the original post really meant those that lived away from the immediate vicinity of the 'well didnt quite expect that sort of response. I must admint though I would categorise Wombwell as a seperate place
