Hi guys,

First of all - excuse me for my english. I hope you all understand me

Born and raised in Denmark with absolutely no english connections in my family what so ever ive been supporting Cov since 97/98. At a young age when everybody "chose" their english team (Danish television showed 1 english game per week back then) most of the lads ofc chose man utd, arsenal, liverpool and so on. I havent meet another Cov fan in Denmark so i sometimes feel like a lonely rider hehe I was wondering if there are any other foreign fans who feel like this? Not that it is a problem at all but i sometimes wish i could move to Cov and share the passion with other ppl.


Any thoughts, comments guys?


Have a nice evening

Welcome Danish, firstly well done for picking the sky blues! You are always welcome to visit cov and have a few beers and a trip to the Ricky, unfortunately next year will be uncharted territory for us all next year but we not the football is not going to be pretty!

Have to say Copenhagen is one of my favourite cities. Fantastic place. Bloody expensive though.

Nice to see some scandinavian blood on here! I´m swedish born and bred from the north, close to the arctic circle, same story for me- chose coventry in 1987 against Leeds in the semifinal, it was on swedish television... don´t ask me why but i have never felt for any other club like I feel for city-it´s weird...i´m probably a sadist:facepalm:.

Har ni något fotbollslag på Bornholm?
