If you're referring to me, I have had a season ticket with my local club for last two seasons and while I've had a season ticket I haven't missed a game in all that time. I have been to 5 away game as well, doesn't sounds much but when you don't have a job and can't drive its too expensive. My dad lived in Manchester for a while in the 70s (when they were crap) so I just followed the family line.

hehe i dont have a local team.
Canberra doesnt even have an NSL team anymore, they were so crap they got kicked out of the comp lol.

So does Canberra actually have ANY decent sporting teams?

Simon · 07-05-2003, 02:56 AM

not really, our basketball team, the Cannons went bankrupt at the end of last season and are gone now.
Our union team the Brumbies are pretty good, Our league team the Raiders used to be awesome, had a few bad seasons but are unbeaten so far this season. Other than that we got nothing.
although Mark Webber is from Quenbeyan which is 5 minutes from Canberra.

As a complete and utter neutral, I should like to offer my whole-hearted congratulations to Sheffield United on their magnificent victory over Nottingham Forest this evening.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Up yours, Forest.

Sorry about that.

Yeah, always have been as I mentioned in this thread. I just followed my Dad who lived in Salford in the 70s.

Still support the Mighty Mariners with a little more passion though....we're going to thump Walsall on Saturday to kickstart our season.
