it was in 1999, the champion league final. The match was against Bayern Munich. I cannot forget that match. I don't know much about man utd then. But that match, the way man utd equalized and won that match was fantastic. I just fell in love with man utd since then 2 Likes |

ARSENAL FOR EVER, the journey started in 1997 while i was assistant manager in a pub @ oxford circus LONDON,, the pub used to show live matches, Unbelievable Arsene Wenger football ideology and drafting most black players on his starting 11 list got my heart taken forever.

Liverpool 2005 FEW WEEKS AFTER UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL 5 September 2005 Saw the greatest match of my life. on may 25 2005, I was send on an errand, on my way I saw halftime replays of of Ac Milan demolishing Liverpool in a bar. Few minutes later while coming back I decided to check the score ( I don't know what pushed me to check because I have concluded that Ac Milan have won) I saw 3-3 I was shocked. So I decided to stay till the end. Note: I collect better beating for house, because I came back so late, the beating made me to forget about the magic I witnessed. Fast forward to the Afro mentioned date when I receive a Gerald lazed cloth. The memory was rekindled. 2 Likes |

1999/2000 season was when I started supporting Manchester United. I got registered officially with the club about three years later. Initially, I was captivated by the fact that so many of the world Stars I knew then were playing for Arsenal, such as Viera, Petit, Bergkamp, Davor Sukar, Henry, Overmas, etc. yet United was dominating the English game. This made me fall in love with the team and I've never looked back ever since. 1 Like |

[b]I had started watching football from 1994, but never fancied any club I simply disliked the regular big teams Real Madrid, AC Milan, Man United In 2004, I was in SS3, Arsenal were Invincible and everyone joined the bandwagon, but when Wenger refused to release Kanu early for the AFCON despite Papilo admiring Henry tear teams apart from the bench, I simply disliked them and their manager who had a similar name to the club In that year's UCL 2nd round Obafemi and Inter beat the Gunners 3-0 at Highbury, only to cost me a bet of 200naira by losing 5-1 at the San Siro In the 1/4finals, the Gunners were up against Chelsea Then the Blues just got a new owner Roman Abramovich, and he bought some of the best players around from Joe Cole to Makelele The first leg against Arsenal ended 1-1 at the Bridge, and I bet 300naira against the Gunners getting knocked out at Highbury by Chelsea with the fan that ate my 200naira the last time out It felt stupid, but I went to war that day and Chelsea made me proud by beating Arsenal 2-1 Chelsea lost 5-3 in the semis to Monaco, losing finalist to Jose Mourinho's Porto Fast forward to the new Season Mourinho joined, along with Cech and Robben, who alongside Lampard were standout players at that Euro 2004 competition In that moment I knew I had joined a Big Club Since then it has been.....Up Chelsea......for life!!!

May 2008, in Moscow. The Reds sealed their third European truimph, that was 50 years after the Munich Air Disaster. I've to confess that day was memorable and vividly clear in my memory. With the likes of Ryan Giggs, Nani, Vidic, Evra, Ji Sung Park, Van Dar Sar, CR7, Berbatov, Scholes, Rooney, Anderson, Carrick, O'shea amongst others making me proud on that memorable day. #Unitedfan #Bloodisred |

I became a Chelsea fan in 2009. I've always loved football but mum wouldn't allow me go watch at viewing centres. So I usually wait up for my brother to come back and gist me. On this occasion, it was Barca vs. Chelsea (UCL semi final), my brother came back, I asked him how it went, and he burst into tears. He kept saying he'll never forgive Ovrebo. I had pity on him and on Chelsea. No one deserves such injustice so I gave all my love to Chelsea on that day. Thankfully, I gained admission the next year and was free to go watch matches since then 4 Likes |

mine was so awkward... I supported random team back in 2008....so one day my friends ask me which club I do support I said no one and they started laughing I felt as if I haven't achieved something they have.... so I do go to football centre to watch matches to decide club I would choose... mehn back then man u was fire.. like wise Barça. but I don't have any feeling to support even chelsea but there fans even push me far away from them... I saw Arsenal and looking at there series of breaking fans heart I just no try reason them.... then I saw the reds... Steven Gerrard caught my love and that funny Reina tho they are not in best form but I still admire them... especially the way there fans chant even when they are losing not like arsenal fans crying like the lost a life contract ....i develop more love to them... so one day I met those my friends and told them I'm a Liverpool fans they laugh at me.. I felt bad... but anytime I see Liverpool Jersey or anything concerning the club it lift my spirit despite they are not in good form.. and note people don't watch there match back then. in football centre you would see Max of 5people , except if is a rival match that's when the crowd stays.... the Fernando Torres gave me joy of a bad day when I remember his solo goals.... my club is historical something many fans dream there club have.... loserpool... you will walk alone... Gerrard slippers.....despite Chelsea fans pushing me away from the club that club still came back and hurt my sweet club in many competition and I hated them more..... up Liverpool epl champ....assenal, womanchester United... manshity oil money...who laugh last laugh best 1 Like |

Basically I've always had two teams, AC Milan and Chelsea. Started supporting AC Milan in 1988-1989 thereabouts after watching football Italia (Serie A was far and away the best league in the world then and AC Milan was the best team in Serie A). Started following Chelsea in 1996 when my favourite player, Ruud Gullit, left AC Milan to join Chelsea. Now I also follow Barcelona basically because of Lionel Messi. 3 Likes |
