Is there such thing as a Broncos Fan who is a Blues supporter?

You never see a Nottingham Forest Fc. fan.

just saying

I go for Arsenal because I liked Thierry Henry, and used to always play as Arsenal when playing Fifa.

People attach themselves to teams for different reasons. Being a true fan is sticking with them in the long run through the highs and lows (not how you initially started to follow them).

My family have always been Wolves fans. When i first started going they were doing pretty well. Won the league cup a couple of times when it was still actually a relevant competition. Then they got into a lot of financial trouble, got sold to the only Saudi's without money who asset stripped the club and we plumeted from Division one to Division 4 ( Yes, there was life before the premier league )in consecutive seasons in the early 80's. Almost went out of existence twice.

Fans in England generally support their local teams. The only 2 real exceptions are Liverpool and United. They have so many fans from elsewhere, and its why they arent overly popular in England as clubs with the majority of fans. You compare that to Citeh, who's fans are predominately actually from Manchester.

Europe do their own thing, England for example have a much more tight nit community for all of it's areas which they barely leave, that's why a country which is soo small can have soo many different accents within a small radius, In Australia the country is soo damn big it's not financially viable for most to go to every home and away game like it is over there because you need planes so the connection between the club and Local area are different.

Not to mention with Rugby league it's a significantly easier to watch on TV than in person which becomes much harder to understand what is fully going on.

He was an odd man.

Was that Rocky?

 

[Morkel]

Was that Rocky?

Nah it was that closet Roosters supporter. Used to try to stir up NSW vs QLD shit and then complain about being bullied. I think he even sooked about being bullied off the forum. Was legit on the spectrum IIRC. Can't remember the name but the moment someone mentions it it will go "ding" in my memory.

No, it was Rocky.

You're thinking of Broncoman.

Oh, I thought that was who everyone was talking about! The "he was an odd man" definitely described Broncoman...

 

[Mr Fourex]

Yes....although "man" is a bit loose.
I think he was just an awkward kid.......16yro?

yeah... i actually posted one of the silly things he did but then remembered he was a kid... no glory in bullying a kid. hope he's well wherever he is.

My mate is a nottingham forest fan. But he's from England. When he told me his team I thought he was making it up, like a robin hood thing lol.

On Wednesday night when QLD take another series.......I hope his eyes turn red, tears swell up and run down his poor misguided, youthful little NSW face.

This place got a little too much for him I think. From memory, when he left I think someone chimed in that he only posts on LU these days. Maybe it was @Big Pete

 

[Wolfie]

What kind of sick individual would be a Blues supporter anyway?

 

[Mustafur]

I still can't get over how weird this thread got, it was a big mask off moment lmao.

I’m a Blues supporter. Birmingham City that is.

Originally from Birmingham, my wife is a Brisbane girl and I lived there for 15 years, that’s my connection with the Broncos and how they became ‘my club’.

Suncorp stadium is very similar to British football stadia, but the single biggest difference is fan segregation. Perhaps the banter via mass chanting as well I suppose.

I watch live sport and I watch sport on TV. Obviously have to watch the Broncos on tv right now, but trust me when I say I feel every hit, hate every bad call and shout at the tv at every opportunity. For me, I’m as involved with the Brisbane Broncos as much as I am with my home town team of Birmingham City.

I make no apologies for it, in fact, proud of it. I proudly wear my Broncos shirt out and about here, and look forward to returning to Brisbane one day where we intend to live for the rest of our days.

Go the mighty Broncos.
Come on you Blues.
Shit on the Villa ;-)

But do you support NSW over QLD though, that's the real question of this thread.

Us Aussies don't equal the passion of you guys have when it comes to your local teams but state rivalry is where I feel it's the most similar.

There is a tonne of history between the two states that makes this the case.

Qlders back in the day understand the BRL vs NSWRL struggle that happened and that was told to the further generations.

Literally NSW won the war off the back of Gambling laws which QLD had to adapt to and what created the Broncos on the back of it, to fight back since we had our hands tied behind our backs since they played dirty.

Our club started as the giant middle finger to it all, and having big city backers is what kept us in it until finally our state government caved to the cancer that is pokies.

NSW is a cancer.
