Favourite Sport Person or Team

Haven’t seen this as thread or topic elsewhere so let’s have a go at this.

Keeping well clear of politics and religion, how about disclosing your favourite sport person or team.

It can be any sport but please remember to be nice even if you support a rival. It’s only for a bit of fun. The town hall clock is not at stake.

You could even dress it up with some emojis.

I’ll kick us off with:…

:soccer: :green_heart: :four_leaf_clover: Glasgow Celtic FC :star:

An absolute legend of motorsport. Grew up watching him slide round in a Subaru.

Great to see a less main stream (UK obvs) sport getting a shout. Although massive in the US of A.

I’d love to see him in a Merc giving Lewis a run for his money! Give him the best car and see what he can actually achieve :+1:t2:

Am looking forward to the banter he and Lando will have next season!

Yep, Lando and Carlos has been fun but Danny Ricc should be hilarious.
