RE: About Brett Langridge (me!)

Thanks Gorilla! ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘โ˜•โšฝ ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿฆ…๐Ÿฅฐ I'm originally from LA, but I spent a lot of time in the London area(and suburbs like Shepperton) as a kid and moved to Scotland when I was 18. I supported Crystal Palace through my dad. But Walton and Hersham are just down the road from Shepperton so I went to one of their matches(their in the non-leagues). Torquay is a place we used to visit every year. During my time in Scotland, I went to see a lot of both Dundee and Dundee United when I was in St. Andrews. But some of my friends came from Alloa so I rooted for them and Hibs, from my later time in Edinburgh. ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘โ˜•โšฝ ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿฆ…๐Ÿฅฐ

What part of London were you in? I used to live in Wimbledon (and rented in Woolwich and next to Tower Bridge before that).

Which did you prefer - English or Scottish football?

There were probably some similarities between watching Shepperton and Hibs ๐Ÿ˜

Hey gorilla! ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘โ˜•โšฝ ๐Ÿ˜Š I have spent a lot of time in the South London area, like Streatham Hill, Wandsworth Common etc. I also spent a summer on the other side of London in Leyton(ironically one of the few London grounds I've not been to, although I heard the matches).

I love the banter of Scottish football, but as a Palace fan, English football comes first. But there's a big gap between an SPL side like Hibs and a 7th division amateur team like Walton and Hersham FC or Chertsey Town(Shepperton's closest teams). ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘โ˜•โšฝ ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿฆ…๐Ÿฅฐ
