Elliott's Photo Album

Getting our teams straight

It's that time of year when the footy in Australia reaches the fever-pitch of finals football and Premier league kicks off in the UK so I though it important to restate our Teams (for Elliott's benefit). Of course at some stage in the future Elliott may choose to rebel against these teams (at his own peril) but from my experience... so long as the indoctrination period starts early enough and is sustained without respite... he'll stick with these teams.

So it should come as little surprise that in NRL we are TIGERS 100%

And since Elliott was born and lives in Newcastle the Knights are our second team.


In the AFL it's the SWANS all the way (being the only NSW-based team... and besides, uncle James works for them).


In soccer we have teams to support in the A-league and the English Premier league! Locally, we are right behind the JETS (of course... since they're our Newcastle team), and in the Premier league we support the Reading Royals since mummy was born in Wokingham and Reading would be the closest team.

There appears to be some mistake... I had expected a Plymouth Argyle crest here!... insult to injury added with Reading being his English team... (can't he have a Coca Cola Championship team too?)

I have fond memories of playing Reading .... ah let me see 0-3 up at their place with 8 minutes to go... lost 4-3... although the FA Cup victory a few seasons ago restored some pride! ;0)
