my gf knew nothing about football when i first dated her.

now, shes a true gunner. watches every match with me live, cheers, screams and jumps for a goal, remember player's names, reserve player's names, best positions to play who AND thinks arsene wenger is handsome.

My wife bought me my first MU jersey, uh, 8 years ago?

She don't mind me watching games, she sometimes joins in on the viewing, and she'll understand whenever we had to cancel on some plans made prior to finding out there's a game on that night.

My last serious gf was a Japanese and had a thing for Nakata. She wasn't a big fan of football though, and she found it really hard to accept the fact that on certain weekends I would rather be slumped alone at home in front of the telly (she lived just a few floors above me fyi) or at a mate's place watching the game with my male posse. She supported Arsenal when that dude Junichi Inamoto signed (and never played a game if I recall) and partly to take the piss I presume. When he moved to Fulham, I wanted to get her a kit with his name on the back but was too lazy to find a Fulham jersey (online purchases weren't too big then) so I opted to just get her a women size Japan jersey instead. Little did I know that it was about a size too big (never been good at getting gifts for girls) and she made it her pj's.

Came back yesterday night > logged-in to LYN > click Football Lounge > Man Utd > scroll scroll > yay, MU is confirming coming > check check 18th July, crap gf's birthday!!!

I already missed her birthday last year, wouldn't wanna repeat it this year again of course. Called her and talked with a sad tone, saying got good good news and bad news. Good news is that MU is coming, bad news is *pause* it's on the 18th of July *pause again* she replies, "so?" I was like "huh, but it's your birthday!" and she's like "we can celeb in the stadium ma, special wat"

Who's the ultimate brain-washer now?

After think think think, guess I also feel like post up something

Well, I've never be a big fan of football even I kind of like support MU due to my gang of brothers who are the loyal fans of Man Utd team. Occassionally I will watch with them because of the gathering, but I can hardly understand the entire game not till I met him.

Well now I'm still learning, at least I can understand what's off side, who are those players, how they play on the field and etc. I know he is hardcore of it, can wake up 5 in the morning for the sake of football but seriously I never thought that I would be so stupid and did the same thing though. I was having difficulties in understanding why he loves football so much, I did not know why. So secretly I also follow his footstep, I woke up in the early morning watched a few matches, that time was killing me because I really didn't understand at all, sometimes didn't even know which team versus which team, worst a few times when the matches finished, I was like, huh? Finish? sweat.gif

Slowly read the newspaper, search for the football news, videos and so on, slowly pick up from there. Unfortunately I've never watch a match with him yet before, well, of course I wish to, because I think it will be very nice! I was thinking will it surprise him if I watch a match together with him? I guess that should be something good because I could have extra topic to talk to him, which is football.

Obviously he did not support the team I used to like, in fact I guess he influenced me in a way to support the team he likes. I searched for the history of his favourite team, I looked for the video of matches for that team and slowly I also forget about Man Utd, I hardly miss any match of his favourite team but I missed quite a number of Man Utd's matches. I slowly find out, it's not about the team but it's about the fun of the entire progress. You know, it's so fun to do something that your loved one does, what more about his favourite?

Not lame. I think that's very sweet of you. Your boyfriend is a lucky dude biggrin.gif

As for me, not much to share la. My gf pretty much leaves me alone when I watch Manutd. We're not the "must-do-stuff-together-all-the-time" couple so yea, she'll be doing her own stuff when I am to be left alone tongue.gif

Well, I'm not sure if he is a lucky guy or not. It's not to say must do stuff together all the time, there are time for me to do my own thing and so does him but I think it's something nice to do. I wouldn't want a day my bf got to choose in between football and gf, that's gonna be hurt and headache. No doubt I found it bored at first, can't understand why so many big guys on the field chasing after one ball? I can't understand why guys always cheers just because of a goal? I can't understand why guys' eyes shinning bright when talk about football. Somehow now I find it's quite interesting. I was a little bit disappointed with Chelsea game last night, I am not very sure about the gameplan still, still watching the video over and over again, hoping to understand more, guess it will be a good topic to talk with him when I have the chance to talk to him. Of course not to forget about tonight's Man Utd match. The predicting game, talking about it, guessing and so on, I personally think, this is not a bad activity for a relationship though. Most important, both are doing something that they are interested in. May be now I am slowly developing the interest in football, but still a lot more to learn. At least now I am no so blur when come to football tongue.gif

When I met my wife (11 years ago, got married 5 years ago), I was already a football player for my college & later the uni. & I was already a sports enthusiast. She'd follow me to my matches, & she even followed me to watch the Malaysia Cup final in Bkt Jalil stadium a few years back. When I was playing in KL League she'd also come to my matches & sometimes if I have training on Saturdays she'll come along as well. I just have to make sure that she have something to do while waiting for me, so I'd buy her magazines, etc.

These days she'll ask whether there's a match on Saturdays or Sundays, & if there's an Arsenal match during primetime she'd do other things (like sewing or surfing the web). I've never really argued about which channel to watch with her la.. Then if there's an early CL match she'd remind me to go to bed early & normally we won't have any "programs" that nite la, if not sure cannot wake up.. tongue.gif

Influence gf/wife is not an easy task to do. I've told my gf, if in the near future we're going to London, first place we're gonna visit is Ashbuton Groove, home of the Emirates Stadium. I don't care if she yell she wanna leave when we're halfway visiting the place, coz i've warned her, I might wonder around the place for a full day. biggrin.gif

During our honeymoon, we watched United vs Fulham at OT. She was a bit sceptical (never enjoy watching game on Astro) and do not want to join initially as ticket a bit expensive £100. At that time the exc rate is Myr 7.++.

However in the end she enjoyed it as the atmosphere of watching live footie is different than on telly. Or maybe she just enjoyed the Prawn Sandwich instead? hmm.gif tongue.gif

I think I won't mind to go Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid. Don't la so bad let her yell there, maybe you can give her a credit card to walk around while you spend time at the stadium? tongue.gif

Well, not to say easy or not, I guess it depends on the partner. I can remember clearly I had the problem where my best friends all look at me like one kind when I ask them about football thingy, I can understand that, in fact even some also think this will not last long and only for 3 minutes, but I still find it interesting and sweet!

Tonight got match again! Yay! And I am another panda already sweat.gif

Well, this has nothing to do with my wife. One of my girl friends (not girlfriends) went for a European tour a couple weeks ago. Since she was going to London, I asked her whether she can buy me one of those Arsenal neckties. She said that Emirates Stadium was actually her first stop.

When she got back to the office, she said that the Emirates Stadium was just awesome & that Cesc Fabregas is her new boyfriend !!! She said that she never really enjoyed football & she dun actually support any team. But I guess she's gonna support Arsenal now. tongue.gif & she did get me one of 'em neckties, which I put on at the office after every Arsenal game, win, lose or draw. rclxms.gif
