New fan!

[gmabel830]

Hi all.. New fan here, from right nearby in Phoenix, Arizona, USA. I have been watching the EPL since they started showing it in the States a few years ago, and went to a game at White Heart Lane during a business trip a couple of years ago. They have been my favorite team because of that, but I happen to work for American Express, so new favorite team! Still getting to know the team, and they probably won't get a ton of air time, but will be appointment viewing for me. Watched today's game on DVR, since I had things to do this morning. I also tried to order a home kit, but they only have adult small in stock right now. Keeping my eye on it though - will be fun to wear that around the office!

My viewing experience is probably different than most - games start at 4 AM here some weeks. Today's game was on at 9:30 AM. But, I love waking up and watching it before switching over to... whatever you all call American football. Also, fun fact, Phoenix has a second tier team (for now, trying to get MLS bid) and Didier Drogba is player and part owner - I have seen him play a few times.

Looking forward to keeping tabs on the season here with you!

A few of us have worked for them too. Shame you didn't get to watch/support us over the last couple of seasons, we were really good and got some great results. This year is going to be a lot harder.

Obviously the season runs from August to May, but this is a fun stat none the less:

FYI - You hate Palace.

Have you paid your £14.99 yearly subscription yet? If you send it to me I'll be sure to pass it on to Bozza for you (NSC is fully of friendly people like this). PM me for my PayPal address.

I hope that you have at least a small measure of understanding of the English sense of humour, you’ll need it in here!

[PTC Gull]

Welcome. Wonder if we have enough of us here in the States or Canada to make a team?

Crystal Palace are the very embodiment of Evil, they represent everything that is wrong about modern football.

They also hate America.

In fact they hate America so much that they kidnapped a Bald Eagle and make it preform degrading routines while they all point and laugh at it.

It is rumoured that the bald eagle, one of America's greatest symbols, has been threatened with beheading should it refuse.

Yes, me too! Subconsciously changing opener to "Hi y'all"

And they are twinned with Pyongyang Rovers

That'll do nicely

Supporting a team based on who sponsors them is a new one on me. Allowable for those outside Britain I guess so welcome aboard. If you were native to these isles an almighty rinsing would be in order.

 

[AmexRuislip]

When you do come over and watch the Albion play at the Amex, its traditional to get a blue rinse, so you can fit in with the rest of the Albionites.
Or the first round is on you, with your own AE expenses card

I wonder if the unemployed all started following us when we were at Withdean?

 

[The Birdman]

A lot of guys and girls from Sussex have gone and worked for Amex and settled in Phoenix and New York could L B put the picture on NSC which you put yesterday on Facebook, Do you still have the albion shirt that you got from a player at Chesterfield.
