My better half...

[Fowler1972]

The answer is 3.

Obviously.

[Moo]

Loves football, knows the offside rule, has been to more matches than she can remember including a CL final. Knows Gerrard was better than Scholes, Lampard, Robson and anyone else you care to name. In the time since we met was a big fan of Kewell, Torres and Klopp until they joined Liverpool.

And supports the Mancs, the bad ones.

[Fowler1972]

Is that worse than going out with a Tory?

 

Discuss..

Haha I was just thinking that if anyone comes back with completely understandable negative comments then I'll have to reply "but on the flip side, not a Tory"!

Fair enough.

[Moo]

Fair enough.

I don't think I could be in a relationship with a Tory. Our football teams are ingrained, political leanings are a choice.

[manwiththestick]

Still no Bloos unless people are too embarrassed to admit it.

They are a choice but that choice is heavily influenced by family, geography, media etc...

 

I’m with you though. I could accept a United fan but never a Tory.

[Juniper]

...Doesn’t have much interest in Football but has been in the Kop with me (which she loved) and will always take interest in us when I watch a game.

 

Generally she’ll scream at the TV louder than me as she tends to get into matches, when she watches them. It’s quite a sight.

 

Always asks how Newcastle are getting on as her family are all from there but I’ll let her off on that.

[Section_31]

Not into footy or any sport but has been to a couple of Liverpool games.

[Special K]

She couldn't care less.

[moof]

you must know someone who can tell her about football

Mate, I could have Bill Shankly round to explain the finer points of the game and it would go straight over her head. She has some interest in the ‘personalities’ of the game; she fucking hates Woy and Ferguson and likes Klopp and Rafa, so she’s not a complete lost cause.

[m0e]

... can fuck off

[ZonkoVille77]

My wife supports Liverpool and did before I met her. It was one of the things that got us talking in the first place. When there's a game on she'd often tell me to head to the pub if I so wished. Ace.

[razor]

My wife comes from a blue family.  Season tickets through the 60s and early 70s, so nice folk not bitters.

 

She was always a red because of Kenny and Alan Kennedy was going out with her neighbour.

 

The first game i took her to was the 9-0 against Palace.  Fond memories.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

She's a match-going West Ham fan. It makes it easier, because she understands the irrationality, the mood-swings, the drinking, etc.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

 

She was working in a bar the night Liverpool triumphed in Istanbul. It was on apparently but she failed to register who won.

Did she not pick up any cues from the atmosphere in the room?

[VladimirIlyich]

My missus is not that bothered any more but did attend a few games when younger such as St Etienne and Moenchengladbach at home in the 1970s.

[Robbo29]

She is a Red through and through, we take it in turns taking the eldest the match, she manages 3 kiddies teams, and knows mote than me

[sir roger]

My Mrs is a blue , not really interested for a good while now although she used to go a bit in the Sharp and Heath era. She was actually named after Alex Young as her dad followed the Blues everywhere and assumed he was having a boy after 3 girls and just substituted an RA for ER on the end of the name when he was proved wrong.

 

Older fans will be aware that the Alex Young thing gives me a perfect dig at her ‘ you might be named after Alex Young but you’re no golden vision are you love ‘ if she mentions it to anybody.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Even a Bloo would be preferable to someone indifferent to football. What the fuck would you talk about?

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

"I dunno. Positions, and doin it and stuff."

[Remmie]

Couldn't disagree more

[Fowler1972]

You’d of thought so but know.

[Byrnie]

My missus is a big red, has been to Anfield a load of times and loves a lot of sport. She loves boxing too. Lucky or what!
