NBC, in anticipation of millions of new American soccer fans following their first season of English Premier League coverage, created this: Premier League Pick a Side

I eagerly await the newly formed legions of my fellow American plastics.  :bowler: :bowler: :bowler:

It gave me Man U.  I don't think so.

Ok so...if I were to live in the Ellesmere Port area which club would I be supporting?  Everton?  Liverpool?  Other?

And I mean Premier League not whatever two bit local bunch I would be watching.

Since anfield and goodison park are almost next to each other and on the far side of the liverpool area you can pick either.. or.. wrexham in the welsh league  :lol:

but pick a side

basically they both fish in the same pond, so... blue or red?

edit: if you still can't decide.. go for the "friendly derby" trope, get your significant other or some person you truly care about, get them to pick one and then go for the other.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Surely tracing your family / local history to whichever region if England is the correct way to go. :bowler:

That would mean I would have to be a Liverpool fan :(
Or Everton :w00t: :hug:

NBC Sports Network is showing a program tonight designed to help your average Joe Shmoe American figure out which Premier League club to support. Hopefully everyone chooses Cardiff or Hull.

They lost three in a row. Fan outrage followed.

It ended 2-2 with the last goal scored by a rather spectacular bicycle kick by Nordstrand.
