    @babylon_bob Před 2 lety +6

    Excellent musician, I'd totally agree with Shearer about people in Newcastle only wearing Toon tops, but being from Burnley its exactly the same, never ever see any other top but clarets one. I think that is how it should be, you should support your local club regardless of how good they are, that's the whole point to be proud of the team and town...I just can't understand people supporting Man Utd and living in Surrey, why? you simply can not have the same dedication and passion no matter how long you support them.
