A team like Man United has 70000 home fans

Only 3000 can go to most away games

When Man United play away do many fans go and support a smaller nearby team like Oldham for a football day out?

    I’m a Liverpool fan from Ireland. But I also follow Celtic - very common for Irish football fans to support Celtic as a 2nd team, kinda born with it. I’ve bought and worn Celtic jerseys down through the years. However, if Liverpool were to play Celtic I’d support Liverpool.

      I think there are a lot of Irish football fans who say they have Celtic as a second or third team (if they support their local League of Ireland club) but don’t actually follow them.

      As you say, we’re kinda born with it, but I’ve found while the majority will say Celtic, very few could talk for very long, if at all, about the current team/form etc.
