Partner's Families Football Team?

Well-known member
As you can see I'm along the M61 for matrimonial reasons and all my wife's family are Bolton fans 🤪
Brother made various attempts to make our kids Notlobbers but I've just about kept them tangerine whilst allowing them both to have United shirts 🤬
 
Wife’s father keeps an eye on Southampton.

Was taken by his uncle to watch Portsmouth in their glory days - yes he was very young and he is in his mid 80s now!
 
Not partners family but unfortunately my 2 sons are both Rovers fans, guess Port Vale , Chesterfield & Wrexham away couldn’t compete with the lure of the Walker millions .
 
Never been married or lived with a partner, 7 significant girlfriends over the last 45 years

#1 - Blackpool
#2 - Coventry
#3 - Blackpool
#4 - Didn't follow football but followed her local Major League teams . . . . Cardinals (NFL), Suns (NBA), Diamondbacks (MLB), Coyotes (NHL)
#5 - Charlton
#6A - PNE (but got her to Blackpool games instead)
#6B - Southampton

West Ham - big style. Mark Noble sent a wreath to her Dads funeral a few weeks ago. The play off was hard to take TBH - especially when I was called "childish" by my Mrs as I didn't speak for about 3 days
 
Wife’s a massive United fan (we live in Manchester) My 12 year old son was taken in by United.

The boycott and then Covid didn’t help as I was unable to take him to Bloomfield Road.

Over the last 12 months he’s been to a few Blackpool games and I think he’s starting to see the light 🍊
 
Step-son's family...Knobbers.
Step-son's partner's family...Derby
Step-son's son (ie. my 15 month old grandson)...working on it.
There's no way he'll be a knobber. My step-son has zero interest in football. However, step-son's partner's mother...season ticket at Pride Park. The young boy has already been dressed in black & white.
 
The other half ( infact the entire side of her family ) are Carlisle Utd fans.
Sick to death now of hearing how much they are going to destroy us this season.
 
First wife born in Poplar, family all Wet Spam fans.

Current wife, late father in law was a season ticket holder at Kettering Town.
Saw a far few of their games and managed to get him to come along to a couple of Pool games.
 
Rangers and Celtic
Mother-in-law Green
Father-in-law Blue
That about some's the whole family up a mixture of both teams even siblings who follow both to the annoyance of the Dad's.
 
Partners Dad is a London born United Fan… need I say anymore?
Her Mum isn’t into football but her Mum’s grandad and great uncle both played for PNE in their ‘glory’ years - the uncle scoring in the 1937 final and grandad winning the 1938 FA Cup final too- hence my partners Brother is a PNE fan - both left PNE to join Blackpool though ! If it hadn’t been for WWII likely would have won it all with the pool… which I point out every time we talk football.
