    Hello, its good to see a traditional forum still going strong. I'm from the US, Pennsylvania more specifically, and have been a fan of the game since the mid 90s when the world cup was in the states for 1994. I follow our league MLS the most but also watch the Dutch and German leagues in Europe with some English (Fulham) games once in a while too. I probably enjoy international football the most however, when i first started watching in the mid 90s that was pretty much all that you could watch here, minus maybe a couple champions league matches here and there. I never latched on to a club team until Philadelphia got a club in 2010 so i try to go to a few of their matches each year.

    I joined this forum several years ago it looks like actually but didn't stick around, anyway i was active on other football forums years ago (a scary long time ago) and was looking to see if any still exist and this one does which is great.

    Thanks, I follow the results for Gladbach in Germany and PSV in Netherlands but I wouldn't say I support them necessarily.

    Gladbach , nice one , likewise since the 1970's I've looked out for their results as I thought their name was strange when I first heard it mentioned , though no one from Netherlands .

    All I can say is welcome back, I was away for a little while but came back and going strong again, I am a Man United supporter and support Glasgow Rangers here in Scotland, I have a soft spot for Dortmund in the Bundesliga mainly because I was stationed there in my army days in the '70s, have fun posting again.

    Cool, I actually started with Glabach because I love their green white and black colors. Then they signed Kasey Keller, the Usa goalkeeper in the mid aughts too. Funny enough though my club Philadelphia Union use the same goal song that Gladbach uses. We adopted it from them. For PSV it's really just that I used them a lot on FIFA 98:D. Silly but I've always kept up with them to this day. I really liked the Dutch national team back then so I liked their national League too.
