Born in South-East London so have a soft spot for Palace
Grew up in Wales so always want to see Swansea do well; they represent the proper, footballing side of Welsh football in the way that other teams don't (cough Cardiff cough cough)

Across Europe I tend to look out for Valencia (after living there for a while) and Genoa (after my mate lived there for a while) - frequented both cities a lot

My Dad's from Wigan so would go and watch them a lot when they were in the lower divisions. Got a bit weird when they made it to the Premier League.

We beat them 3-0 in the cup when Brian Kidd scored and then managed to get sent off (bless). I was delighted with the result of course.
 

I keep an eye on Werder Bremen in Germany and Hellas Verona in Italy. I took an interest in Verona when I found out that they won the league in 85 as we did. That season they changed how they selected referees for matches, they randomly picked the refs for each fixture and that seasons table saw a lot of the usual suspects finish well down the table. Next season they went back to the old way where the big teams got their friendly refs every week and normal service resumed. They remember the title winning season as the year of the miracle.
 
Oxford are my local but find it very hard to care about them. Have a large soft spot for Norwich as I went to UEA and went to quite a few matches.
In terms of premier league, Palace are by far the least objectionable team in my view
