GD can you do a guide to Serie A racism a? Like the games that are most likely to have all the good racisms? I'd like to see some top top Italian intolerance, but I don't want to watch too many games because Serie A because its kinda poo poo.

Any game involving Lazio or Hellas. Done!

One important thing you guys forget is that football is about bitterness and hatred, and you can hate as many clubs as you want!

Some suggestions of clubs to hate: Chelsea, Barcelona, Inter, Lazio

Real Madrid is the home of Ronald's Alpha Squad (now featuring cool guy Keylor) and therefore cool and good. The others are indeed hateable.

If I followed the advice of "follow a team you like from a game you enjoyed" then my favorite team and player would be Blackburn Rovers and Roque Santa Cruz and that's okay man.

It was a pretty good game though. He scored a hat trick. I thought he must have been the best player. This was whatever year Derby County died a horrible death.

I picked Liverpool to follow this season because I enjoy how angry it makes English people.



I have an actual question though:

Why the hell does the Europa League exist?

To keep the mid-table teams rotating around so that they can never build a good enough squad to challenge the Sky Super Sunday Top 4

You don't need a team to root for, just watch and enjoy the sport

If you really, really need to, look at who finished top 4 last year and pick one of them at random, that way you get to watch Champion's League and they won't get relegated to the Championship any time soon, at which point they won't be covered by your cable package

No matter what you're a plastic so you might as well pick a good team

Please don't come and support City unless you can tell me what positions Kevin Horlock and Darren Wassell played and who Neil Heaney scored his only City goal against, that is all.

Alternatively, just watch a load of games and see who is the most exciting to watch, or ideally, just find who your nearest team is, and watch them, even if its Bethesda Athletic or Mount Olive Kickers, it's about watching a game of football and following a team, not having to watch a 'major' club that you might get to see once or twice at most in your life.

To give one lucky lottery winner a chance to play in the Champions League, thereby fooling them into thinking the game still has mobility between big and small clubs and keeping the masses docile.

Americans should support a team in the championship, then you can hate everybody in the premier league equally, which is really what soccer is all about. It's also a very hipster move, which will appeal to many of my fellow American soccer fans.

Note: don't support Ipswich unless you're an inbred semi-human.
