I now live in the North East of England.
In the Northern League yesterday (level 9, I think), Whitley Bay F.C. had a crowd of 1,659 against their local rivals, North Shields.
A great crowd...

That’s why I go to Atletico Balears instead of Real Mallorca

And Atletico Baleares are Blue

And they are a club for the locals
