If you had to move to London and you had to follow a team , who would it be?

I’ll support City wherever I live. If we moved to London that won’t change. I’d go to Twickenham for England rugby and probably a few Harlequins games though.

My least disliked London team is Chelsea, and we always stay in that area when visiting London so I’d have to say them. Couldn’t imagine cheering on anyone but City though, except when they play rags and dippers.
 
I moved from Manchester to Scotland over 40 years ago and still support City.
I wouldn't support any London team, I do have a soft spot for QPR who I used to watch in the 70's quite a bit because I had cousins in London who I visited quite a bit who were QPR regulars. so would probably go and see them. I did a two month subcondment as a student in London and would just go along and watch whoever was playing which was easy in those days.
 
I was born in Manchester during the Colin Bell era and my Uncle bought me the red and black strip when I was 4 (one of my earliest memories) supported City ever since and always will.

My 1st job in an office was 400yrds from O.T. (late 80s/early 90s) surrounded by and working alongside United diehards.

But I still supported City (whilst inside cursing my Uncle a bit!)

BUT NOT ANYMORE!!!!!

As regards the London thing, I can't really pick one, maybe Crystal Palace? Whichever team is verses Man Utd gets my support!

When City were really struggling in the 90s I was always a secret fan of Newcastle Utd. in the PL. And I will love it - love it, if they can grab an away win at O.T. on Boxing day this week!

Simply because it was my Grandad's team I'd have to say Crystal Palace - don't think Tooting and Mitcham are still going are they? Sandy Lane, their old ground was at the end of the road where my Nan and Grandad lived when I was a kid when I first went to Maine Road.

I moved to brixton mid 1980's for a year.
If i wasn't able to make it to a City game and Palace were at home i'd go along and ended up cheering them on.
Always got treated nicely by their fans (they knew my loyalties) and still think fondly of them.

Probably not going to be a popular vote on here but it is what it is.
 
Used to live in New Cross and train at the New Den with Uni. But couldn’t stomach being a Millwall fan.

Would have to be West Ham. Never met a Hammers fan I didn’t like.
Goldsmiths?

I used to live in New Cross too, for a year (also lived in Suburbiton for a year, Holloway Road for about 3 years and Maida Vale for about 2 years - worked at Lewisham College in the 90s) and there's no way that anyone who wasn't a massive racist could follow Millwall!

The original question is non-sensical.
I followed City.

At a push I'd go to Charlton (mates who followed them) if the travel wasn't such a pain in the arse.
