    Father and brothers support Liverpool. First match I saw was United vs Liverpool with them, and being the horrible child and c*nt of a brother that I am, I shouted for United. Best decision I ever made.

    I hate doing surveys but fcuk it I'll do it anyway.

    Club - Newcastle
    Age - 24
    Family - No

    May as well do my brother's too seeing as he's on boards but not the soccer forum.

    Club - Newcastle
    Age - 26
    Family - Yes. Twas me that got him into the Toon.

    Edit: would a fourth question - what year did you start supporting them? - not be a tad relevant? Many of my best friends are Man Utd supporters and most signed up around 93 (convenient timing I must say). One guy the same age as me claimed he was supporting them in 88 at the age of 4! Another used to support Liverpool because he was young and naive he says and they had a lot of Irish players back then. But they all claim to be somewhat family influenced.

    Liverpool

    Dad (who isn't a huge football fan) bought us some Liverpool kit when I was five / six and pointed out to me that some of the players at the time were Irish. It stuck.

    24,
    Liverpool,
    Both brothers had a bit of an interest in 'pool, so that probably helped.
