Which Football (Soccer) team do you support?

Just looked Greenacre up on wiki. Born in Wakefield. You worship one of Satan's minions.

You know me Mitchell, I think everyone should support teams that Greenacre has played for (by my reckoning that makes me, you and Smith safe, I do recall there being a Stoke fan round these parts once but not sure).

Sounds like good logic for mine.

He even supported dirty leeds as a kid but saw the light, you should have seen his celebration when scoring against them, imagine KP tonning up against the Saffies and you get the picture

3 months later and I'd have been the same.

 

[PhoenixFire]

I'm a minion of Satan, and proud.

 

[Richard]

You're Wakefield-born too?

Manygates?

I'd never even heard of Wakefield until just now. Is it a smog-infested bastion of post industrial decline?

Has a rugby league team iirc.

Yes then.

Certainly not that bad, but I probably have a somewhat misty-eyed view of it given I grew-up there and have often wished we'd never left, so you'd not neccessarily take my view of "it's a great place" too seriously. It undoubtedly is better than places like Bradford and Leeds though.

Truly astonished that anyone can have not heard of it mind. Expect it with Morpeth (even Wrenthorpe\Kirkhamgate, which are a suburb and civil parish of Wakefield respectively) but not Wakefield.

I've pretty much only heard of Wakefield from RL + driving past it when travelling to see family.

Omg wow.

Nah, I assume that bit was to do with Yorkshire, not Wakefield. I was born in Keighley.

 

[Richard]

Omg wow.

No need for that extent of sarcasm, surely?

 

[PhoenixFire]

Yeah, there was.

 

[Richard]

Umm... why?

 

[PhoenixFire]

Was pretty unremarkable in all honesty.

 

[cpr]

Especially the multi story car park.

 

[Matteh]

Anyone who's anyone was born here.
