In London groups of friends tend to support a variety of teams. I am a West Ham season ticket holder, my wife is Arsenal and my best man was Spurs. In the North a lot of friends/social groups will support the same team so they 'build' to the match together all week. I first start thinking about the game a couple of hours before kickoff. That said London got some massive stadiums (West Ham, Arsenal, Tottenham) and they are full every week regardless of how the teams are doing, so you still got loyal fans.

I think there’s a lot more socio-economic nuance to this conversation that just “NORTH VS SOUTH” 😂 i think it’s more about classes, albeit the North is more working class than the South, but this isn’t an exclusive rule. West Ham is more of a working class team than say Chelsea. Crystal Palace is more of a working class team than say Arsenal. Ultimately, there’s more similarities than differences.

Clubs in the south have generally become more family friendly, so the crowds reflect that. I know of hardcore fans being banned for barely anything.

It's true that northern fans are more passionate than southern, but that's not always a good thing. As a Southampton fan, I always thought that we generally avoided relegation every year because the fans weren't as bothered and so the players played with a bit of freedom. Newcastle/Sunderland/Boro's fans cared far more and that held the team back when it comes to the key games in April/May. In key moments it just means too much sometimes.

There is NOT a more passionate set of fans than the Green Army of Plymouth Argyle, they're incredible support when facing extinction saved thd club from disappearing all together years ago. And yet, it's the southern most team in the UK. It's nonsense! 🙄

More of an exception than the rule in fairness. Great fans though no denying that.

Foreign football fans are better in general anyway, every time I’ve been to a game with a foreign team they chant far more than English fans do

That's because they don't speak English, so they just shout a load of twaddle.

Simon Jordain " from the day dot, Man U were the poster boys of the Premier league" Understand that statement Because at the day dot, it was Liverpool 18 Arsenal 12, Everton 9 , villa 7 , man U 7 So why does he State that Man U are the POSTER BOYS and most iconic, Man U have been the top Ckub in England for 8 of the last 58 years And currently its Liverpool like it has been for the other 50 So why are Man U the iconic Poster Boys ?

So this is merely a premier league thing where London is considered the entire South?🙃

Agreed 100 % and I support a London club. But all support in this country is a joke compared to Italy, Spain, Germany, Holland and many other European countries who's fans are noisy passionate, sing and support their clubs win, lose or draw

Football is too diluted in London. There’s what 14 teams in the prem and championship. Then more in the lower leagues. In the north football is all that have and at most the cities have two teams. Sure Arsenal probably have more fans in London than the other London clubs combined but still it’s diluted a lot.

@unknowng888 7 ай бұрын

This is such a pointless debate. Simon is right once again. No one in London cares if a club in London wins the premier league unless it’s their own.
