It was sheer class that (used) to be the best part. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Not that much now, but a few years ago we oozed class and grace from pretty much all corners. And while I don't really like this Chelsea (thought much better of them say in 2006 round abouts), I personally think it's great to have you on board. Not to mention you're a cool cat, too.
Even if you were not a Milan fan, it's a blast having people from all countries together on this forum. |

Even if you were not a Milan fan, it's a blast having people from all countries together on this forum. tbh well to admit now i actually am not really much a supporter of much anymore of a club more of a fan of them, i admire clubs, heck barcelona maybe have some complete asses in the team, but i just admire the fact that they are a uber extraordinary side, play some lovely and deadly football, i have to give the love to milan cause well, they just as you say ooze class , they are a club worth making a 2 hour long documentary about. they have had the most brillant and idolize-able players ever (i actually used to be a clone of materazzi while defending, but i changed my game and became a better tackler after just developing a huge admiration for franco baresi), i just love their good sides, and that's what i feel id love to see more fans doing, is rather than developing a skin deep hatred of a club because it's a "rival" or "bought their fave player off them". i just wish fans would respect the club more for the good they have done. heck inter milan maybe high on the rank of ac milans fans hate list, but one player i have to say i love the heck out of is javier zanetti, likeable man. brillant football player sorry if its off topic it's been caught in my filters and i really had to get it out thanks mate (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) , i like this forum, much to enjoy and learn (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) and yeah around 2006 the team was better than the 2012 equivilent, no 50 mil transfer fee's much solider foundations, god i sound like a glory hunter xD, but just i'll say pretty much to every football club theres a bit of them i like about them i'll say that |

It's got a lot to do with the media these days, plus quick and easy access to matches, videos, highlights, and discussion forums. It was quite different 10 years back, and 20 years ago, following football was another matter entirely. |

Well the 2006 team had brought in shevchenko (i love shevchenko (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ) brought in ballack, big expectations of that team, even coming off the back of a 05-06 title winning season, but then again man united were on a revival themselfs, heck on the old manager games chelsea had fucking massive amounts of money.
that team also did well that season FA cup glory to go along with it. 2012 team's containing well some has beens - off formers, the team just needs some real rebuilding changing around, and a need to not sack a manager every season. i reckon villas boas should have been given more of a chance but..well it just looks like things didn't work out. that or he should have stuck at porto for a few more years, gain more experience and learn more, face teams that are known giant killers/Teams that could rip porto to shreads/teams that porto could rip to shreads i do wish villas boas well, wherever he goes next |

Totally agree with you said above. Particularly the bit about AVB. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) I always felt the old guard saw him out. The Chelsea players who have been with the club for a while now, never gave him the chance!

Not sure what the attraction to Milan is. Supporting them just feels right. They seem to attract very likable players for the most part (though maybe that's changed a little lately) and the players represent the club very well. It;s one thing for players to remain loyal to a club, but Milan remain loyal to their players which I like - even if he does hold back the club a little at times.
On Chelsea, a nice gesture from them yesterday. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02182/petrov_2182433b.jpg) This post has been edited by kurtsimonw: Apr 1 2012, 07:49 PM |

If I'm being frankly honest, their success, to a point bought me to them. Call me a glory supporter if you like but when your first team is Torquay United it's quite nice to support a more 'fantasy' side. Who you can catch on TV a fair bit live and they can actually pay multi-millions for all these elaborate fancy, flashy names which I'll never see Torquay ever doing in my lifetime. Channel 4 (one of our terrestrial, standard channels) used to show Italian Football, and I didn't have Sky when I was quite young, so my first real memories of watching football, outside of the Champions League was the Serie A.
2 teams I always liked was Parma (mainly for Buffon, I was a keeper when I was like 10!!) & Milan because they were so flashy, good and enjoyable to watch. As I progressed with watching I stuck with Milan and obviously in the past decade or so have had much greater access to them, online, TV channels etc. |

Say what you may, but I always find it special seeing English people supporting Milan. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Same goes for most other nationalities, but really, when you have a billion different clubs in the EPL and Championship, plus other more flashier ones, it's great seeing UK based fans. And of course, other international fans are great as well.
I mean, someone born and bred in Milan city supporting AC Milan, is one thing, but this, like I said, is special! |

I think they're a good team for us to support, given the English involvement in the history of the club. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Sadly not many Englishmen (and women!) are aware of this fact. But regardless, I've seen a lot of Britishers and English people support Milan. Not just here, but on other general footballing boards and websites as well. Probably got a bit to do with the classy players we've had over the years. And success, too. |

Unfortunately most now have moved on to 'support' Barca. They were only really supporting Milan when it was cool to do so, now it's just the next flavour of the month. Once Barca stop being the side they will go onto the next big European side, that's just how it works with this sort of side in the main.

Not good, but hey, what can I say. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Those loyal deserve respect, the glory hunters deserve a thank you for coming notice. That's just how football is these days.

There was one prominent member here who migrated to a Barca forum. I have no idea why. Presumably for the reasons you state. To answer the OP: It's hard to put in words. There's something very special about the Rossoneri, something most clubs don't have. Whether it's a glorious European record, or that incredible stadium, or the wonderful red and black jersey, there is just something about Milan which makes them second only to my #1 Rangers. Could be the fact some of my all time favourite players have played for Milan, be it Gullit, Van Basten, Rijkaard, Shevchenko, Kaka, whoever. This club has something few others do. Whether we win or not, there's something special at Milanello. |
