Anyone in Manchester been persuading a Hungarian to support GTFC?

I was out in Budapest last week and the receptionist said that when he'd been working in Manchester, his boss supported GTFC and was really pleased when we beat Derby (I'm guessing it was the recent friendly).

If he worked at a nightclub it could possibly be me.  It is very unlikely and I would guess someone else is responsibe but had a few hungarain staff, don't  recall talking about Town that much to, although I was once walking through the bars singing about us.

talking of persuading and saving to make another thread anyone else converted people to gtfc?

not quite converted but my son was born in Exeter and lives in Devon, took him to Eastleigh away (he's 2 and a half) and he loved the drums behind us and cheered when we scored. Just hope he sticks with his daddy and supports the mighty mariners

I guess living in Devon his other option is Manchester United.

My advice with kids born in exile is to buy them their favourite crisps or other snack when you take them to Town games. They'll associate the sugar rush with seeing Town.  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

intercept them before they get to school and you have a chance...by the time they get to infants there are Man Utd/Chelski/City "fans" and peer pressure leads them that way...

I have many scalps here in Beijing, as do my lads, all their mates are GTFC watchers, sometimes listeners. My mate, Trevor is a Canadian who runs my local bar, Plan B is a big fan and if you go here [url] and look at the pics you can see him wearing his GTFC hat. Ha!

I use my mug all the time in work and people are always asking me "how did Town get on last night?". A work mate from Portsmouth now has the Mariners as his second team and I even know a lad from Donny who checks on Town too. Oh, but there is one major issue; there is a girl from Scunthorpe works here........
