Not so much local pride nowadays perhaps. Would football have died on its arse if fans of the other 11 decided to be Preston fans in 1888 after they won the League without losing a game and the FA Cup without conceding a goal?

When we were in the top flight it was difficult to grasp that a Cardiff born & bred person would want his home town club to lose against a team a few hundred miles away. As I said, perhaps local pride takes second place to being remotely associated with success nowadays.
