Ok I’m a 2nd Generation Londoner and support Chelsea.

I enjoy supporting England over Chelsea because nationals has that wider community feel that you really don’t get at club football.

I have no interest in club football because I simply do not have a team.

i love international football and go out to watch England ladies and men. And sometimes other games if the match is crucial for our next opponents.

but I suppose I care and feel attached to the ‘three lions’ - so that makes it enjoyable. I don’t care for any local team despite being raised in a football mad family.

I always describe myself as a LFC fan, never a football fan.

I watch the women's national team and have good wishes for them. I don't give a monkey's what the men's national team do, as long as there are No LFC players in the squad. If there are, I follow them in the hope those players don't get injured.

No idea why that is, but it's where I'm at, at the moment

I enjoy supporting the national teams but club football just hits different! My team has had very high highs but also ridiculously low lows, it doesn’t change anything for me, they are my club and I’m proud of them. I agree with pp l wouldn’t call myself a football supporter, I’m a LUFC supporter.

What I am enjoying is more women talking openly about football and giving their honest opinions on games without feeling judged or like an outsider.
