Wow Steve, me too...but you omitted the London Lions.


The ice hockey team?. I'd forgotten about them. Went to watch them most weeks. Mostly Canadians I believe. The used to bully the more 'delicate' teams from Europe. Great fun.

Followed Wimbledon Speedway in the 1970s the old greyhound stadium now knocked down being rebuilt for Wimbledon FC...went to white city a few times and Eastbourne..


Wimbledon ? For me the speedway equivalent of Chelsea. Could never bring myself to follow them when White City folded.

It was a disgrace the way the GRA kicked them out of Plough Lane.

Kent county cricket club

Although i don't actually live there

If you start asking questions about them I won't know any answers

Apart from where they play (Canterbury, Beckhenham and somewhere else I can't remember)

Same here.

I think I started following them because Stuart Leary played for them.

I think I've bored you all before with my affair with Chesham United, but who can ever truly leave their first love! I was also heavily involved & in love with Heathfield, a defunct Sunday team that was the most sucessful Sunday club in Suffolk.

Outside of football the team I follow closest is Wakefield Trinity, but a supporter I'm not. I do look for the results of these teams/clubs but would never dream of watching them in the flesh - Surrey CC, Harlequins, LA/Oakland Raiders. I also used to get excited when Bucks did well in minor counties cricket & ternnis county week!

Living in Ipswich, I was delighted when White City won the Speedway league rather than Ipswich Witches!

The last couple of years haven’t been great to me from a supporter perspective.

Wembley Lions and later White City Rebels speedway teams. Both sadly one gone. I now follow Eastbourne Eagles from afar.


Went to the speedway at Wembley a lot back in the day, the sound and smell in that stadium was awesome.
Still got some programmes somewhere.

It's being so happy that keeps me going.

The Sri Lankan test team. I love their ingenuity and am a big fan of mystery spinners. I also used to love watching Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara bat, they showed that subtly, timing and touch are just as effective as raw power. Surely the greatest ever batting partnership, having put together a cool 624 stand against S Africa.

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

Hi Brain, I see you are from right down the Beara peninsula. I remember nearly 50 years ago driving over the mountain near Allihies with the grass down the middle of the road. Fabulous countryside.

1.Middlesex ccc ever since Slack and Barlow opened the batting. Vincent van der bijl was the Duke.

2.Castleford Tigers. Always cheer them on, big fan of daryl powell. Been a Rugby Super League fan since the late 90's. I hated it in the 70's and 80's when it was on BBC Saturday afternoons with Eddie Waring.

3.Canberra Raiders NRL. Their semi final win over Melbourne storm was the best sporting event i watched all year. Been a Raiders fan for about 2/3 years when Sky started showing NRL. I get as pissed off when they lose as much as i do QPR.

The state of origin series evokes the same feelings in me as FA Cup final day in the 70's and 80's. Can't explain why, it just Does. Magic.

Middx CCC (and England, obvs.)
Vague affection for GAA Tipperary teams due to having very much fancied two sisters from Roscrea. Though as it happens they were more into rugby and had some obscure connection with Old Wesley RFC, I think a relative played for them. But sod that, it wasn't him I fancied.

Don't really do other sports but keep a bit of an eye out for Gloucester rugby results, it pays to round here.

Sorry Brian, just read your original post again, but sorry to say I too saw the Red Sox at Fenway Park a few years back, unfortunately they lost, but it was the year they won the World Series!
It was a great evening, we stood right at the back almost next to the bar and could look straight down on the pitchers practice area, great view of the game and everybody was really friendly.

I saw the Red Sox win at Yankee Stadium a few years ago, though I was queuing for food when Big Papi scored the only home run. For the biggest rivalry in baseball, the home fans took it very mildly. It was the first of three games in a row in the middle of a 162 game regular season.
I once saw Devon White winning a game for the Blue Jays at the same time our own DW was turning on his magic.

A bit of a theme there - my US relatives (all Mass based) used to send me merch when I was a kid, so they stuck.

Saw the Red Sox a couple of summers ago in Yankee Stadium. The Yankees beat up on the Red Sox big style, unfortunately. Great experience. but the heat that summer in NY was attritional, like watching baseball in a frying pan.

Also, in horse racing, I like to see Keith Dalgleish's stable do well - they're local to me, and he's a wily trainer, he punches well above his weight.

Yes, Womble. Born in London but both of my parents are from Urhan and we moved back here when I was five. Had another spell in London from the age of 15 to 26 but back here again now.

Hasn't changed much down in Beara, Womble. I live in Cork City but Beara is home.

Where in Tipp do you or your folks, come from?
