It's the beautiful game. But how is it different across each side of the pond? BrooksDT and TimSpiers examine cultural footballing differences between England and the U.S.

recently and saw a remarkable number of half ‘n’ half scarves. And despite them being 6-1 up, a lot of City fans left early, which I couldn’t believe. But at least in the UK we don’t call boots “cleats”, Brooks. We’ll never do that. Sort it out.Boots go up the leg — they don’t stop at the ankle.

But yeah, with light shows, pyros, fire, music etc, the Premier League is starting to catch up with the US and I don’t mind it at all, albeit I’m fully aware some people will absolutely hate this. Also, US fans probably — and correct me if this is unfair — don’t take defeats as badly? As in we have a tendency here to kick the cat and go in moods for a day or two after a painful loss. And we’re known to prioritise football over social engagements, relationships and stuff like real life. What I’m saying is being a football fan has ruined my existence.We’re not robots, Tim! We definitely do take losses very poorly at times.

One aspect of English football that I’m really envious of as an American is the proximity of the clubs. A dedicated supporter can reasonably travel to just about every match their side plays in a season . Unless you own a private jet, that’s just not feasible in America. MLS andclubs span the entirety of the contiguous United States. Thousands and thousands of miles.
