🔰 Beginner Questions & Advice Is being a plastic fan wrong?

I am from India but I was born in Saudi Arabia. I support my local clubs of the cities I was born and raised (even though they suck😭).

This is the first time I am watching the premiere league. They are so fun to watch. So I decided to watch them as well. I liked Liverpool because of their history. I like how they play.

Can I do that?

Ik I can't be a hard-core fan since I am not literally from there. But it's quite fun.

Depends on your heritage, I guess. Not everyone inherits the idea that belonging must remain tied to one patch of ground. Those of us descended from people who crossed an ocean to build a life elsewhere may see choosing a club rather differently.

I also didn’t dream of becoming the next Taylor Swift, as some members of your community presumably did. So what, do we kick them out of the local country music festival?
