I live "Very close" to:
Birmingham City FC, Aston Villa FC and West Bromwich FC. (in the middle of all three).
And have only ever been to two matches in my life (just tagged along with the lads back in the 60s)
Birmingham City v Queens Park Rangers on both occasions and QPR won 2 - 0 on both occasions
Oh yes, and originally I come from Scotland. Was this some kind of omen ?
Also being the awkward cuss that I am, and as my friends were blues supporters I decided to supported QPR whilst standing in the "Tilton Road end" with NO PROBLEM, except after the second goal I was advised by a very large six foot odd person that I should start to be a little quieter, but then you could do things like that back in the 60s.
Plus the fact I was very naive and did not know you should not do such things like that.
