Question of Support

[davids]

The rs kopites won't understand what it means.

Conveniently forgotten piece of history for them.They're all too busy looking for things to throw at the oppositions team bus.

I don’t understand Americans.

I appreciate everyone and their guidance. Thank you for that.

For everyone that got frustrated, I do apologize. Remember I am new to all of this. I don't have parents who taught me how to be a fan as a kid. My mates have never watched an English football game in their lives. My mates all laugh when I talk about English football. It's not so easy over here in the middle of nowhere America. That is why I love this forum and reading the posts. It gives me what I am lacking.

They and their fans aren't even from the city,

But neither is the OP.

honestly I wouldn't turn up in an Everton shirt to that game. fans of those clubs wouldn't take Kindly to it I guess

Its in the usa. I dont think they will be too bothered. Not known for their football smackdowns

So I am from the States and I am a new Everton and EPL fan. I am excited to say I am purchasing tickets to the International Champions Cup this summer to watch Man U vs. Liverpool in Ann Arbor (an hour from my home). It will be my first ever English football game. Obviously I would prefer it to be Everton but I am excited still. My question is.. I want to enjoy the game so should I show up in my Everton Rooney kit or show love to one of the teams playing? If it's acceptable to support another side, which side? My gut says no to Liverpool but I need guidance! Thanks in advance!

Welcome to GOT mate. You've already made one good decision - supporting the greatest club in the world. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll fume, but it'll just make the trophies all the more sweet when they arrive.

As far as your question, as an American, since this is a friendly and we never get to see EPL teams play, I view these as more celebrations of soccer in the US and less about teams/rivalries. I'm sure you'll see all kinds of different shirts from various European leagues at this event.

Wear Everton proudly, and boo the RS loudly

Where are you from Frankel?

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

Wear your Everton top with pride mate and support Man United. Much the lesser of the two evil's on show.

Welcome to the Everton family, @Brent

A fan of Everton FC rooting for Liverpool FC would be tantamount to a fan of the Michigan Wolverines cheering for the Michigan State Spartans, so I'd say root for Man Utd!

Hope you enjoy the game.

Wear a juventus kit with the number 39 on it

They'd probably get it more if it was a Chelsea shirt.
