Too Poor To Prosper - Division 2 2020/21

[Sporting]

Ipswich too.

[nmrfox]

Glass Half Empty is a Blade I believe and comes on here from time to time.

[Sits]

Ipswich too.

Ipswich fans crop up over here with considerable regularity too, for some reason.

[ad hoc]

There's at least one Sheffield Utd fan (Glass Half Empty), and I think there is another. Also Guy Profumo has an affection for the club, although he's primarily a Darlington fan. There have been a few Leeds fans over the years, but few (other than EEG) have been here consistently for a long period

[sw2borshch]

There's only three regular Boro fans, with LaVecchiaSmoggie also MIA.

It's more that there's only one intermittently regular Sunderland fan that's the outlier.

[Sits]

And Beak for the Toon.

[Billy Casper]

Shrewsbury seem to quite well represented too.

I started coming on here in about 1999. At the time it seemed like about one in every three posters supported Oxford United (Jimski, Ginger Yellow, Justin, etc).

I know we've done it before, but which is the biggest club to not be represented at all?

Man City?

A fair contingent of early OTFers were at Oxford University, which probably explains it

[Amor de Cosmos]

Man City?

Tony C

[ursus arctos]

and dglh

[Amor de Cosmos]

Not sure if there are any Southampton or Wolves, nor Everton now Andy C's not about.

[ursus arctos]

That Night in Barcelona is Saints, and jeanmid is Wolves.

You may be right about Everton, though

[Gangster Octopus]

Southampton = andrew7610.

[nmrfox]

meregreen for Everton but don't think he's been on for a while.

[Sporting]

There's only three regular Boro fans, with LaVecchiaSmoggie also MIA.

It's more that there's only one intermittently regular Sunderland fan that's the outlier.

Who are the three? Could swear there were more.

[ursus arctos]

sw2boro, Fussbudget and Capybara

[Sporting]

Ah ok.

[Fussbudget]

Yeah there's not that many of us, we just talk a disproportionate amount of shite.

A fair contingent of early OTFers were at Oxford University, which probably explains it

Is there really a big overlap between Oxford United fans and people who attend Oxford University? Or am I missing a joke here?

[Gangster Octopus]

No. It appears that a number of students sort of fell into supporting Oxford United. I'd've gone for City, meself.

[San Bernardhinault]

Of the long term distant past Oxford fans on here Boris and I definitely didn't go to Oxford University. I don't think GY did, but can't remember for sure. I don't know about Justin and Jimski. I think Nef is in some sort of academic gig now.

[Merlin the happy pig]

Given the quality of my writing on here I would imagine it's fairly obvious I didn't get anywhere near a University, or in fact the 6th year.

[Felicity, I guess so]

But you’re a dab hand with a picture: who IS that on your avatar/ID? (I know it’s not a pig, happy or otherwise)

[Sporting]

Being a university student is no guarantee that one can actually write well.

I think GY was (hence his moniker, which was the colour of their shirts.) Pretty sure Justin was, Tubby was also at the uni but not sure about how much of a city fan he was.
