Gotta be Deportivo a Coruna for me. Play in Blue and white stripes, seaside town and has a statue of three seagulls coming into land on a pond outside the ground. Great place to go, people are Celts and spend much of their time drinking, eating, drinking and eventually falling over. The rest of Spain think their drunks, Galicians think the rest of Spain are .....:)

Slavia Prague. Totally random. Never seen them play but will do so soon as I do a lot of business in Prague now...sadly Ducla Prague (immortalised by Half Man Half Biscuit) have disbanded and reformed as a village side outside Prague called Marila Pribram.
My god I'm dull...

Barcelona.

Went there when I was 12 and couldn't believe that a football stadium could be so big.

Went last season to see them play Espanyol in front of 85,000. A few hairy moments with my Albion shirt as Espanyol also play in the stripes but overall the night was brilliant.

Going back on 6th December for the Real Madrid game and cannot wait

Heart of Midlothian of course! Safely through to the second round of the UEFA cup after a battling performance in Sarajevo last night.

Well done the Jambos!

Also like Depor. Got their strip recently and it's cool. I think their fans called the Blue & White orgasm or something suitably exotic.

St Pauli. The 'other' team in Hamburg now sadly playing regional football (only the top two divisions in Germany are national).

St Pauli is the leading club in Germany for anti-fascist football fans, and believe me a strong anti-fascist movement is needed there.

Gotta say Deportivo are fast becoming my favorite 'big' side. I love the bit about the statue of the seagulls.

Real Betis ... shit on the Seville .......

E. Frankfurt and Ajax.

Seen all play, but Ajax was in the old stadium 'F13' block. Me in my Stripes (circa NOBO) and a mate in his Ipswich top.

Wierdest game has to be in the old Fernabache stadium for an International match (Turkey v's USA) in 1991. 1-1 I seem to remember, but it was pretty dodgy walking back from the ground, no Police presence (I suppose the Turkey hat and scarf helped)

Duisburg! The 'Zebras'! I'll pretend you didn't say HSV.

The Zebrastreifen are the real deal, it's a long-standing family thing. And they're nearly always crap.

I did used to quite like HSV when the "maechtige Maus" was there in the 70s and I'm also trying to get a job with a company in Hamburg run by keen HSV fans (they're taking me to see them play Munich 1860 in two weeks time) so that's a career thing really. They're pretty crap as well,
