Not just me then.

Wonder how many of the 'shirt-swappers' are actually just fans of football in general then, without the fickleness associated with it.

Many of mine came through travel. Most are in my brother's wardrobe now though. British clubs learn Europa fate Aston Villa, Everton and Hearts enter at the next stage, the draw for which is on 7 August.

Everton one? they would love that.

Five year contract signed in Feb, he's going nowhere. More chance of you signing on at United

Has Tony Hibert only got one leg? No wonder he's crap.

I've seen more pace on a slug. There may be a future for him at Setanta.

You're surely not still talking about Hibbert with this one are you, though after your first comment you're clearly clueless?

Yes I am. Pardon me for expressing an opinion. It's not like you're biased, is it?

I've always been a Liverpool fan, but my dad bought me many shirts when I was young, mostly through his old job, but I've had Arsenal, Blackburn, Newcastle, Aston Villa, Sampdoria, Fiorentina, AC Milan, Inter, Juve, Italy, Brazil and a Valencia kit, all through my younger days.

It'd be lovely if Rafa offered Owen a contract back at Liverpool. Ala Robbie Fowler. Obviously, on very good terms for the club, who were brilliant to him in his time at Anfield.

Unfortunately, despite the huge upturn in City's fortunes of recent, there is still a number of 'shirt-swappers' in Hull. Most of them supported Leeds (ugh) for a while, and over the years have more than likely sported Newcastle, Arsenal, Spurs and Manyoo shirts.

There is also a fair number who attached themselves to Liverpool in the 70's/80's and have never let go. Each to their own, and all that.

Not that many Man U though, from my recent trips to the City? I say not many, I mean in comparison to every other corner of the UK.

Really don't think he has anything to offer us. He's always going to be able to score goals, but he offers nothing physically and he won't be an outlet for us. I just think the top sides need more from a forward, especially if he's up top on his own.

Hi Paul, and fao everyone from Hull who post here.

I've obviously been to Hull many-a-time for rugby league, with Widnes and for Great Britain games.

But on recent trips to the city where I visit my girlfriend, I've noticed a huge amount of people in Liverpool shirts around. More than Hull, Leeds and Man U. Is Hull a Liverpool FC-supporting hotbed?

Alright fella, traditionally Leeds Utd have always been well followed in Hull although with younger kids it's all the big four now.
