Very nice. Wonder how many of those actually started supporting before 08/09
Being second is good enough though. Thought we lost much more respect in the eyes of Europe.

What's the point in doing that survey ?
God doesn't pick football teams but if he did.... they'd probably look like this

All you have to do is travel around Europe and you can see what club is most admired, kids everywhere can be seen sporting a blaugrana kit

It's going to increase even more what with the people who took note to us after Spain won the WC. I don't care really, there will be glory hunters but a few years from now they'll move on to another club and we can forget about them. Can't criticize this myself since this is only my third year following the club although I'm certain I'm sticking around for life.
Over where I live I'm seeing an increase in both Barca and Inter fans (makes sense)... and the Man Utd fans remain as usual + fans of Mexican teams. Used to see more Madrid fans than Barca but not anymore. By a lot though I mean a small handful of people per month since I don't see a whole lot of people walking around in football kits here anyway.

When I departed SFO in July, for Europe, I grabbed a drink at Andale in the Intl terminal while sporting my Pique jersey...A latino employee at the restaurant couldn't contain his enthusiasm for Barca, approached me and we engaged in some discussions about the team etc. in my broken Spanish...Whenever I wear a Barca shirt, I almost always get a pretty enthusiastic response

Strangely enough I've had more people compliment me and such when I wear a Liverpool shirt than I do when I wear a Barca one.
Oh that also reminds me though I've seen two Atletico fans on campus since the semester started, they're on the rise in terms of fan support too I guess.

I often see people wearing Barça shirts here. And I lived on the end of the world. Not so often I also see some man utd, milan and real merdi.

Thats true,if Coventry city becomes wins 2 CHampions leagues,in 2020,2021,then they will have the 100 million fans,it depends more do you support the team because you love the team or you love the style of the current team,I began to support Barca ony 2 years ago,call me a glory hunter or anything you want but I intend to support Barca for life,I wont care about trophies that much,about having the most Europian fans,I dont care about that,the more special your love is when there is no that much fans Originally Posted by Wolfe

doesn't surprise me...
good football attracts the masses. If you can play well and win at the same time, well most appreciate it...
the others hate, but f**k the haters!

Cool. I don't know any other Barca fans in my corner of the world (England) and can only remember ever seeing the shirt worn once and that was at the other side of the country, by a little boy. Was very recently though, so maybe they're getting more popular here, especially after the World Cup because the commentators kept pointing out that Spain's performance was heavily influenced by Barcelona. Made people curious

"I am absolutely bloody furious about this and it has become a constant this summer. The quotes are almost entirely concocted and I am pretty sure that I know how it is happening. Me and a couple of other journalists who actually try (yes, yes, don't always succeed) to do the job properly and who are here in Spain are trying to do something about it." - Journalist Sid Lowe on the real Cesc scandal (ie the tabloid libel and people believing it)
