Who the shiraz do you think you are? How dare you sit there and judge how and who people support.
People are free to support who they want how they want as long as its support.

You are acting no better then an extremist bashing his religion on any one that will listen.
Strange that you forgot this when you were berating Russki and Kosta for their criticism of AU over the AO ticketing fiasco :lol:
As I said "As long as its support." What they were doing wasn't supporting their club. That's why I got shitty at them.

you got shitty on a public forum?? :lol:

so having a voice of opinion is not supporting your club? you have to be joking me...

please show me in your aufc supporters handbook where it says 'supporting' means bending over and taking it with pleasure?

while your at it can you please tell me how long you have been a supporter of AUFC?

In the 70's we only ever had English football to watch on TV (who was the host with the moustache on the BBC???), so even non-English migrants took a keen interest in the English game. Its the 1979 FA Cup Final (first game I can remember), my father was a keen Liverpool fan and for some reason was going for Arsenal....In spite, I chose Man U who were also the underdogs.....that bloody Sunderland with the afro got the winner in the last minute....
So, who do you support if man u play olympiacos?
GIAE by your logic.. one cannot support Australia AND Greece

back to your question.. I was in that exact pickle last season to be exact.. champions league final and have to say it was quite a strange feeling.. I couldn't really support either team but supported both at the same time.. feelings of being torn, joy and sadness at the same time.. weird feeling

btw mega.. u cant of picked better teams to support :)

Would the Greek half of you borrow money off the Australian half of you to buy the kit and not pay you back?

First time you saw your team play live?

1967 : Sheff Wed v Leeds at Hillsborough.
I think it was 1995. Nottingham Forest did an Australian tour and played Adelaide City at Hindmarsh.
It was pretty exciting to actually get to see them play.

His (now ex) wife was a bit of a looker back then.

He is now sadly a wasted, overweight drinker :-(
