Yes. I chose Norwich because of when I first got into football, ie. late 80s
If I'd been born 20 years later, it's perfectly possible I'd have chosen, say, Fulham instead. For very similar reasons: smaller club which doesn't take itself too seriously, has friendly fans and a homely image doing well in the top flight and in Europe.
But once we choose, that's it. For life. I do 'keep an eye' on a few clubs, just in the sense of "how are x doing?" Swindon most notably. But I don't care about them in any way; it's just curiosity, dating back to the 1993 playoff final.
