I know Heisinburg made a thread recently about when but I'm more curious on what made you start watching football? Whether it was a player, team, tournament? For me it was watching a Chelsea match with Zola in it. That class, skill, talent! I later forgot about what was the name of the team he played for (Chelsea :P). So I started supporting Valencia after seeing La Liga at the age of 9. Those teens always making fun of me when I played in local tournaments with Valencia (jokes on them I one in my first try in the tournament with Valencia). Then, when watching Moscow 2008 Barca vs Chelsea its when I remembered that's the same team Zola played in. From then it was Blue in my soul and always Keeping the blue flag flying high. So what about you guys?
