    Barnsley FC at football. But look out for Rochdale and Middlesbrough (or wherever JB plays). I like Dundee Utd now, based on Arabian Ian. But before that, Alloa were my Scottish club. Abroad, I've always liked Atletico Madrid, Lazio, Dortmund, Benfica and Marseille.

    I support England at all sports I watch. But like other British nations and the ROI to do well.

    Cricket - Yorkshire, obviously.

    F1 - Always been a fan of the driver rather than a team. I was Senna mad as a kid, as well as Mansell. Then I fell out of love with it a bit, until Hamilton came along.

    Rugby - Bradford Bulls.

    Baseball - Cleveland Indians.

    Basketball - Orlando Magic.

    NFL - Miami Dolphins.

    That's about it.

    AFC Wimbledon are my 'second team' now I guess, used to Rushden and Diamonds to an extent as they were my nearest team
    Always had a soft spot for Forfar Athletic (East Fife were my Dad's team)

    Not too fussed about particular teams in other sports

    Right ever since I was a kid I had favourite teams from every European country and watched their progress throughout the seasons. Now most teams I support come from the fact I have seen them due to United having played them.
    I must admit I used to follow the fortunes of WHU due to the fact Alf Garnet supported them. I've only been to Upton Park once 1979 and saw them once at Highbury 1996. Anyway for the past 6 years Barnsley have beemn my adopted English team and will be forever. Great set of supporters, great town and a real football side.
    My fav teams include
    Barnsley, Juventus 1st foreign team I saw. Barcelona. Borussia Munchengladbach, Porto, Standard Liege, Lens I went there to see United, Moscow Dynamo, Coleraine, Bohemians Dublin, Slask Wroclaw, Grasshoppers, IFK Gothenburg, Flamengo (Brazil) I saw them play Celtic in a friendly.
    These are the main ones, there are a few more.

    BTW to all you Tykes who because of me have taken a liken to Dundee United I thank you but please be prepared to be disappointed on a regular basis. As last Saturday proved supporting United is not an easy ride.
