New Premier League Fan

[Muggins]

Hello everyone,

I'm an American who has played and is getting back into playing and watching soccer. The Premier League stands out to me as I hear it is the most competitive league out there. One of my coworkers is a Newcastle fan and all his talking about the premier league has convinced me to check it out.

Everton intrigues me as I don't want to root for a rich team but I also don't want to root for a terrible team.

Convince me as to why I should become an Everton fan please!

Thanks!

You know you're an Evertonian when you can say "We're [Poor language removed] [Poor language removed] lad.!", and smile.

I'm from Massachusetts.

Connecticut here neighbor. Stick around a while and give Everton a chance. I have a feeling we'll be paying off soon with upcoming changes.

I just watched the Tim Howard video and am catching up on all of the responses. I like Everton a lot and think I will give them a shot!

Are there any Everton podcasts that I could listen to?

Glad to see that you weren't scared off by the locals.
The humour takes a bit of getting used to, but stick around it really is a Grand Old Team.

I'd love if this was a davek multi

99.9% of posts on GOT have a large slice of sarcasm inserted so don't be put off. Just throw a few "las" and "arl fellas" into your posts and you'll be fine.

Google Everton v Bayern Munich semi final and you'll see what all this Everton lark is about

Thanks again for all the help guys! I really hope football becomes more popular over here in the States. I think over the years it will be more and more popular, due in large part to the concussions and other severe injuries in american football.

I haven't posted on any other forums yet. This is my first one. I'm going to watch some replays of games this weekend for all teams and make my pick.

Go on mate pick us - in a year's time you won't remember what life was like preEverton. Those highs and lows is what we are all about . Consolation is it makes you a better rounded person. Blues are a great breed. How one city can produce two such different sets of people is amazing and its down to the football.

Yes, I do realize it ended last week. I figured now might be a good time to watch some game replays and decide on a team before the season starts.

Jesus don't watch any of us from Jan onwards! We were gash. You will end up supporting West Brom or Swansea
