    New here and wanted to say hello.

    I'm 34 born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia. I have traveled pretty extensively and have lived in Europe and Asia, but now reside back in Atlanta with my wife and kid.

    Soccer (football) fan for over 20 years now. Wife and I have Season Tickets to our MLS side, Atlanta United, but I have always preferred the English setup.

    I have never been to Bradford's ground, but I have been to matches at:
    Spartak Moscow
    Shinnik Yaroslavl
    Inter Milan
    Palermo
    Juventus (Old)
    Olympique Lyon
    Olympique Marseille
    Barcelona
    Portsmouth
    Nottingham Forest
    Blyth Spartans
    Bromley
    Arsenal (Old)
    Newcastle

    ..and I think that's it.

    Look forward to getting to meet some of you folks!

    Welcome aboard.

    But you can't just throw Blyth Spartans in that list and walk away. Why and when?

    Ha - well the year would have been either 2005 or 2006. I was traveling with my Father, who loves to visit smaller cities and have an appreciation for ships and lighthouses. We found ourselves there and went to a match with about 150 other people it felt like. Actually it was rather enjoyable.

    Agreed, life's too short to be THAT bothered about words on a forum. Mind you, I said the same thing about cartoon emojis but clearly there's too many sensitive types to handle them.

    Thanks.

    Apologies if I broke some cardinal rule or said something wrong?

    Regardless, thanks and I'm glad to be back on.
