Do you support Centrals because they have recent success (a bit like being a Man utd supporter I guess), or because you fit in so well at their home games?

Answer,

I don't support any side. I like to see Centrals doing well though as when I first came here I read a newspaper report calling them the English side.

No I believe I said England. It's plain for most people to see.

In which case I can only assume you've never been to Southern England then if you're comparing the two. You should get yourself over there, so you become more informed. I can help with some places to visit if you would like.

I'll be there when there's a decent sport there. Actually not necessarily, it's cabernet for watching football so I'll be there when it has some cricket

Happens a lot in sport with poorer demographic areas doing well. How many titles do they have in Manchester for example?

That said, Chelsea is certainly not a poor area.

I said the same when Norwood won 3 on the trot and Centrals so many prior to that.
