Well, the title says it all.

What do you think?

It could be an ongoing thread rather than season specific I guess, as the number of posts would obviously be lower.

Only if we get rid of all the "Who are you backing to win the premiership?" and "who will win the champions league?" threads. No point having the big teams talk spread over 50 million threads.

Oh, and I want it to be broader than "English." Gives the impression that ***** can go start one for their own country. Plus the poor old Jags get left out of "English."

Technically my local team will be Kidlington FC in the Hellenic Premier League.

Oxford United play in Blackbird Leys on the other side of the city.

And either way, I'm City til I die.

Tbf, there's an A-League thread.

Presumably there would be an NZ football thread too, had it not been for the fact that a) NZ play in the A-League and b) only Redman and thierry henry like football over there.

(no, I won't start a Norwegian League thread)
