Most of the Australians I've encountered that are in to the EPL tend to follow one of a select few teams - either Chelsea, Arsenal Manchester United
or Liverpool.
Would I be right in assuming that the team choice is simply down to who was easy/good to watch, rather than, say, a family connection.
I ask as a life-long West Ham fan, who has rarely seen his team achieve anything of any worth. I haven't met many lower league (or lower performing
EPL) team fans from Australia - they all tend to support the big (more recently) successful teams. |
This is true,
I'm an Arsenal supporter by blood so it's all good.
I think it really depends on how into footbal you are too, people should support a club they like not just the team that they are
feilding.

Don't really follow EPL or soccer in general, i do enjoy watching those UEFA games however with all the international teams.
however regarding 563's post, if i do watch EPL i support Chelsea, and that is because they were good in fifa 95 on ps1 and the only team i would play
lol

Yea I think as a superficial kid I went for Man U for their winning potential, that and a brother's mate introduced me to them. These are back in the
Pallister, Ince, Steve Bruce days though..
You're right though...My uncle's a massive West Ham fan. When he went to the stadium in the off-season one of the groundskeepers gave him a tour and
was like "yea most Aussie's don't give a shit about us for some reason"...(cool story bro)
Anyways, for the record
Man U
Barcelona
Knicks
Eels 
Brumbies
