YankeeToffee Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 I'm Andy, and this is my first season among the Evertonian ranks. I got interested in Premiership through a couple buddies of mine who watch Champions League and was quite curious as to what was going on in terms of European football. After I did my homework with a bit of bias (I didn't want to root for Man U, and I love Tim Howard in goal for the Americans), I came to the conclusion that the Toffees were my team, mostly because I feel they are literally and figuratively, a blue collar squad. I'm still learning the ropes when it comes to the Premiership (As an American sports fan, the idea of relegation completely intrigues me, along with all the side cups that are played for besides the Premiership title), but it's been a fun campaign so far.

Romey 1878 Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Welcome to TT, we have a few American's on here already and I hope you enjoy it here as much as they seem to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chongli Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Glad to see another American among us Andy. What a superb choice you have made for a football club. It's simply a club worth supporting. Although my British brethren assured me that we Evertonians do not choose--we are chosen. Despite the poor start, I'd say this is a good season for building a deeper connection with the team. Where in the US are you from? I'm from Boston and there are far too many Man U and Chelsea supporters, as well as people who wear red shirts from some other Merseyside club. I'm seeing more and more Barca shirts out there as well, not surprisingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
