I’d add to the bottom if applicable “kids team” so fire away! Mine, FWIW, are… Grandads Team - Stoke. Grew up round there and played in goal for Stoke schoolboys with Stan Matthews Dads team - Bristol City. Moved down this way and the most local decent club Mums team - Bristol City. Because Dad dragged her into it. And she still goes now Local team - League wise, closest, it’d be Rovers. But I’m having Yate Town Your team - City. Obvs. Kids team - City. They’re indoctrinated and I’d disown them otherwise! For me: Grandad - Yeovil Town. (He might have played for them in the late 1920s or early 1930s. He played locally/regionally but could never quite get straight if it was actually for Yeovil Town or not) Dad - Bristol City. My Grandad moved to Bristol to work at whatever the precursor to British Aerospace was and married and had kids. My Dad went to City home and away in the 60s and 70s but stopped at some point in the late 1970s Mum - No interest whatsoever Me - Bristol City. As a kid, I had phases of supporting Plymouth Argyle aged 7 or 8 because they played in Green and had a funny name, then supporting Sheffield Wednesday from 11 - 15 or so because I wanted a premier league team and I liked being different. But that was always on top of City and, especially since I left Bristol, supporting Bristol City makes me feel close to my routes. Local Team - Growing up, Yate Town. As an adult my local teams have been Bournemouth, QPR, Chelsea (I think - I wasn't really close to anywhere), QPR, Arsenal, Wingate and Finchley, Walthamstow FC and now Arsenal again. Kids' Team - No kids but my brother wants me to take his kids to a City match at some point next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Coach Posted May 12, 2022 Report Share Posted May 12, 2022 5 hours ago, The Coach said: Bristol City Bristol City Bristol City Bristol City Bristol City Was quite proud when I stated all this. Just realised that's 3 generations of football misery... Believe I'm a 5th generation City fan. Have a family member who played for the club in the early 20th century with Fatty Wedlock. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe I'm a 5th generation City fan. Have a family member who played for the club in the early 20th century with Fatty Wedlock. I know for fact that at least one great-grandfather watched City and seeing as they all lived and worked in Ashton/Bemmie it's likely they all did. So, that makes me 4th generation and my daughters 5th gen. I'm pretty sure City didn't exist in my great-great grandfathers' days. Excessive drinking and bare-knuckle boxing seem to have been their only leisure outlets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
