60 years ago today ...

[Capybara]

... we moved to Middlesbrough. If we hadn't I'd probably be a York City supporter.

Maybe you might have been better off staying there?

I'd probably be a York City supporter.

Leeds, I reckon. (Indulge yourself in a shudder)

I have a similar illustration that life is a chaotic vortex of random chance. My father's family moved south from Seaham when he was 9. Just let the implications of THAT settle for a minute.

You'd have had a terrible week.

Similar for me. Born in North London but living in Teesside via Morecambe before I was 4. God knows who I'd have ended up supporting, but I've had a lucky escape.

It was about 59 years ago that I landed as a two year old in the Boro ... I'd have probably have been more of a Rugby League fan, having been born into a Halifax woollen mill. I think even speedway was as big as football in Halifax back then. Having seen Halifax Town play a few times, I'm glad I was spared a life of lower league football.
