I am new to watching/following football/soccer. I just started following the Premiership 2 yrs ago and MLS this year(kind of). Looking for some friends to get together and throw back a few pints and watch the Premiership. Please respond with which club you support. I haven't picked a club yet, thats right for me. My friend is HUGE Arsenal fan and keeps working on me to join him.
Thanks,
Patrick

Well, if you're going to pick a club to support, Arsenal would be the club right now. They're playing phenomenally right now.
Which is not to say that I like them, mind you...

Arsenal.
[and for the record I liked them before I even knew about Fever Pitch or dated the amerikraut mistake.]
I don't keep up with the EPL as much as I do the MFL tho.
Fire FIRST!

For me, the only team in Red is Man United. Incredible history, and I believe an equally incredible future.

I'm not much for England.
There are no real teams I like, but there are more than a few I actively hate.

Well, pretty soon the Gunners' supporters will have to modify their famous chant:
"FIVE-NIL TO THE ARSENAL!!!"

Me too.
Actually, I watch the EPL on Fox pretty much every saturday, but I cannot say I support any particular club. I usually root for teams with Americans on their rosters, but that loyalty is just a transfer away.

My favorite EPL team is Leeds but I always root for Blackburn, Spurs, Fulham, and Sunderland beause of Americans on the team.

YES!
I root for anyone playing ManUre.
I'm a partial Blackburn fan because of Friedel.
Also Liverpool because Owen & Gerrard.
But I can watch just about any EPL game and wish we had those kind of stadia & fans (quantity of) here. The games are electric. If I watch an MLS match after that I get disappointed.
It's all different when the Fire are on. Local club first!

I too am what you might call a casual Premiership fan. I watch all the matches I can and like a lot of teams but don't support any in particular. I have picked Liverpool to win this year but damn Arsenal looks tough to beat.

The only proper Premiership red is that worn by the boys of Liverpool FC.
