Any other fans here? Who are your teams? I'm going with Real Madrid because of Jose Mourinho and some great playing, but am looking for another team to support (maybe Chelsea).

Re: Let's talk soccer
Newcastle United, I was born and raised there, my parents have had season tickets with them for many years. They've gone through a very rough patch, stumbling from disaster to disaster, ending in being relegated, but bounced back and have come out of the whole journey much stronger structurally, financially, organisationally and with a team togetherness and performances that have won over a lot of new fans after being a deserved target of constant ridicule 4 to 5 years ago.
Two years after being promoted back to the Premier League, they are now in the Europa League next season and were still in contention for a Champion's League place until the last day of the season, all without spending vast amounts of money (They were the most profitable club in the Premier League for the 2010-2011 season). It's been an amazing turnaround."Nakonec pravda vitezi" (in the end, the truth wins)

England (because I'm English), France (because they have some Newcastle players) and the Czech Republic (because I live there, love the place and my wife is Czech). All three of them got through the group stages, so I'm very happy about that, I don't expect any of them to win the tournament, though.

I don't know anything about international soccer. I watch the local team (Sporting Kansas City) when they're on some of the time.
