So guys which British Football team should I follow?
Conco:
I'm an Arsenal fan, but I agree wholeheartedly with the post above mine, Aston Villa is a great club, and you won't be dubbed a glory hunter either.
Inlander:
In making your choice, it's very important to remember: if you choose to support a Successful English Premier League Team, you will only experience a tiny fraction of the rich array of emotions that following a sporting team has to offer.
For instance, one of my mother's oldest friends lives with his family literally down the road from Arsenal's recently retired home stadium. I've known these people my whole life. Using that as a basis I could reasonably support Arsenal. But instead I choose to follow the team my father followed when he was living in London in the '70s, Queens Park Rangers. Has being a Q.P.R. supporter been a satisfying experience in purely sporting terms? Not really. Has it made me a better man? Maybe!
Take home message: jumping on the bandwagon of an already successful and famous team is the easy route. Don't be the guy who takes the easy route.
parm:
Histon Town FC. A team from a small town just north of Cambridge who punch far, far above their weight. They recently beat Leeds in the FA Cup, a team whose stadium holds over five times the population of the entire twin villages of Histon and Impington. Their lead goalscorer is a postman.

Villa really is the way to go right now.

Even worse than the Chelsea-Man U F.A. Cup final from a couple of years ago?!
