Two reasons I chose Chelsea

I have no connection to football so I used my random criteria to select a home team.

I chose Chelsea because:

1. I like the logo

2. I am Korean and I support Samsung

I was also considering Tottenham Hotspur because one of the rare times I've heard a EPL team referenced was when Steve Nash said he was a Spurs fan.

I'm an American and new to the EPL and football in general. I registered last year but kind of forgot about it and the World Cup rekindled my interest.

I was unfamiliar with the formations and other intricacies of the game but I downloaded and played FIFA 10 on my iPhone recently so I think I have the basics down.

Do they still play that bizarre 3-4-3 formation?

Gr8 to know that Samsung and Logo are also playing their part in increasing number of Blue Followers :D

You "chose" Chelsea after considering Spuds? Oh dear....

Welcome though, I suppose :)

You'll come to learn that rejecting Tottenham was the best decision you ever made.
Welcome.

a Korean American who almost supported Tottenham but preferred our badge (and let's face it anything is better than that damned cockerel)? i suppose it's possible. but a Korean American (basketball fan?) who doesn't call football soccer - now that's amazing.

Oddly enough Mr Nash is a part owner of my local club......although that helps to explain why Paul Barber was recently hired to be our CEO(aside from his qualifications)......he was previously a top Exec with the Spurs!

Welcome, Samsung. I need to ask you an important question about team selection. Since ManUre has S. Korean's captain, Jin-Sung Park, why didn't you consider them? Thankfully, you did not, but I am just curious. He is a hideous runt, but I must admit that his better-styled haircut makes him look a bit better.

Hi Phillip, sorry for the late response.

Obviously I'm aware of Park Ji-Sung and root for him but I didn't want to get on the Man U bandwagon. I know a lot of koreans root for them and I tend to go in the opposite direction the crowd goes.

Welcome to the Shed End Samsung. It so happens I have south Korean roots myself. I was adopted at the age of 6 months to Norway of all places.
Good to have you on board:-)
