    This is great. A fellow City fan shared this with me on their message board pertaining to the geographic location of all the teams:



    "To put it into perspective for you, the two furthest teams apart on that map - Southampton in the south and Newcastle in the north - are approximately 280 miles apart, which is just short of the distance between Biloxi and Memphis. Note that in the UK, unlike the US, it is very common for multiple teams to come from the same city (for instance yes, you can see six teams all from London), which is part of the reason that club rivalries are vitriolic as it's near impossible to avoid bumping into fans of rival clubs even if you're just walking down your road to the local corner shop."

    I guess the guy is familiar with Mississippi haha... Either way, that would be insane to basically have a league of 20 professional teams in that small space.

    That map is awesome, looks like London has 6 clubs either inside or right around it.

    LOOKS LIKE my Saints had another easy preseason match- 6-0 over some Belgium team. Graziano Pelle scored twice in his debut. We also did some heavy rotation during the half; I guess trying to get as many feet on the field as possible during the preseason.

    Brad Stevens, that map is great.

    I was actually corrected by someone on the board that London actually has 13 professional teams, but only 6 are in the top league. Crazy

    Em Ingles para voce Yankees:

    An update on the pride of Wales-

    -Swansea City AFC drew 1-1 with Chivas de Guadalajara of the Mexican Premier League in a friendly played at Miller Park in Milwaukee Wednesday. The Swans conclude their Preseason US tour Saturday vs Minnesota United FC of the NASL (who knew?).
    -Spanish mf/st Michu loaned to Napoli of Serie A for the duration of the upcoming season, with an option to buy outright. Michu scored 28 goals in 63 matches over two seasons with Swansea.
    -The pikey bell-ends from Everton will get theirs on Nov 1.
    Love Swansea
    Hate Cardiff

    What I can't believe is that there isn't an EPL team in Cambridge. How does that happen?
    It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

    Cambridge has 2 professional football teams.

    Cambridge United FC and Cambridge City FC

    Cambridge United is currently in the fourth tier of English football

    Cambridge City isn't any better.
