But that would make me a Liverpool fan (born there) or Bristol fan (grew up there)

which seems a bit mean.

I've lived in Norwich since 1981 and the football team just grew on me without me really noticing it until I found myself buying a yellow and green iced bun during the 1987 cup run.

I quite like hearing how people from different parts came to support Norwich.

(It only works for Norwich mind. Everyone else would be a glory hunter).
