MuespachRam Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 If Derby didn't exist I would go for...Sheffield United.... similar club to us, with one of the best "proper" grounds left in the league. Also...FC Muespach, and Basel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plusi Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Alfreton Town for me. Locally, I also follow Chesterfield and Burton Albion. Nationally, I have a soft spot for Newcastle United, and also slight feelings for Luton Town, due to the whole point deduction farce a few years back. England used to be my second team. Now I think they're somewhere like 60th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asanovic Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Lincoln - spent most of my child/teenage life growing up there. Shame what's happening with them at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Teale Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Sheffield wed as the misses family support them, I also always look for Burton's result. I sadly also dont dislike man u as the old man supports them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbydan Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 wouldn't say I have a second team but I like the way spurs do business & play they deserve to do well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the464444 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Partick Thistle simply because they seem to be the only people in Glasgow who realise how ridiculous the old firm are, been two a couple of games always been a good laugh and then Barnet because the grounds only a few stops away on the tube and they're the only north london club I don't despise.

LeedsCityRam Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Clear 2nd team is AFC Wimbledon - a magnificient 2 fingers to the disgusting decision to relocate their club to Milton Keynes Previous 2nd team were Ssausagehorpe Utd as I grew up there - but then they got promoted, their fans started getting lippy & they beat us 4-1. At home. That took ages to get over. Also a lot of current admiration for Norwich & Swansea - hope both stay up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I supported them as a kid and through my school teens, been to Elland Road loads but when i left school my lifts to Elland Road dried up so i supported Derby.

uttoxram75 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Stafford did the double that year. Northern Premier league champions (iirc Wigan were 2nd!) and won the FA Trophy. It was in the days of re-election for the teams finishing bottom 4 of the old 4th division, there was no automatic promotion. Stafford were probably the top non-league team in 1972 and Derby were the best team in England, Spose i was a glory hunter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoetheRam Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 We all know who Ianm's is but do you lot have second teams - if so who are they, why and what level does it go to - be interesting to see if people follow a bigger or smaller club as well. I don't and can't understand it. What if the two teams play eachother? What happens then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archram Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I don't and can't understand it. What if the two teams play eachother? What happens then? Noproblem. You always want your 1st team to win - maybe that's why the others are 2nd teams?
