An honour to be proposed for this much vaunted accolade. I’d nominate @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy but with his adjudication it might be a conflict of interests for him so I’ll opt for @croppy_boy instead.
Can the rules of a Footix be set please?
- Follow a team from a place you have no connection with cc @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy
Id say EPL glory hunters
It’d be like supporting a more successful team over your local team.
So like following Ireland’s most succesful team (Shamrock Rovers) over all the other clubs closer to Malahide.

Anyone see Trent’s worldie at the weekend, what a cracker!
Lucky for me I had Haaland as triple captain on my FFT this week.
Keano just made absolute shite out of Carra on MNF earlier.
Announce Mbappe!!!
Say any of the above in a south county Dublin accent and you’ll have a fair idea.

Will it be running in September too?
At home we call them ‘screamers’ named after the quintessential screamer in tracksuit bottoms and candy jersey who when asked the morning of the 96 cup final who did he fancy for first goal took a drag of his fag and replied ‘jamie redknapp, 30 yards, screamer’. Ya probably had to be there but the name stuck.

Ringing in to Michael McMullan’s phone in show conferred instant footix status.
Saying ‘we’.
Themselves and the wife in Liverpool and united jerseys on social media and some caption like ‘hope she’s still talking to me later this evening’
Club crest Tattoo.
That little car sticker of a fella in a united jersey pissing on a Liverpool one or vice versa.
Asking the bar man to turn off the all Ireland semi final so they can watch the charity shield. #split season.
Calling the league of Ireland a pub league and being particularly dismissive of it
Caring passionately about how much a business in another country spent on outgoings and how it relates to the company’s overall balance sheet and arguing vehemently with their neighbour about this.
