I am a life-long town fan that moved to Calgary, Alberta 17 years ago.
I have made it home to watch two live games over the past two years, the last one being the win over Millwall in October.
Other than that I am dedicated iFollow supporter.

Not international I know (although I live one mile from the border!) but I saw another Town fan on the flight back to Belfast from Manchester last night. Meant to go and speak to him but two young kids at 10pm in the airport had me pre-occupied  |

Dublin, Ireland.
I wear town stash out and about all the time, and in my 12 years living here i've been stopped twice. two couples who both came to Dublin on their honeymoon.
technically international, but close enough that I still fall into the 3pm blackout rules. The Irish can't get Ifollow streams on a saturday 3p/m kickoff as the sky TV deal applies to Ireland too.
Maybe make anywhere from 6-12 games in a normal season. Used to have season tickets while my Dad in the UK was with us but since his passing struggle to motivate going as much anymore. The whole Rab C Nesbitt era gave my enthusiasm a massive dint. Will try and get over to more games in the King Kev era. #USA

Fuerteventura - Canary Islands - hence the clever profile name!
Been here 8 years.
I have thought about getting the iFollow season pass but the missus would probably moan plus if the game is on the TV I have to go to a bar to watch it.
Town fan since the mid 70s. If some younger posters think they have seen poor football you should have been around then.
Don't meet many Town fans here. Met a member of this forum for the Watford game a few years back - Paul Ince last minuet winner. Same season over in Lanzarote walking around Playa Blanca in me Town shirt looking for a bar showing the game - toot of a horn from a passing car - another Town fan giving me the thumbs up out of the window.

Nashville Tennessee but still sporting the Yorkshire accent. Here’s a snippet of every conversation I have with Americans when they twig that I’m ‘foreign’
‘So you’re Australian right?’
‘No actually I’m from England!’
‘So what’s in like to live in London?’
‘Actually I’m from up north, around Manchester’ (nobody knows where Huddersfield is or seemingly how to pronounce it. Manchester is the only place close enough.)
‘Oh I bet you’re a big Manchester United fan’
Actually I’m from a small town called Huddersfield so I support Huddersfield town..’
(Becomes immediately disinterested)
‘We were in the premier league one time?..’
(Keeps talking about how one of their family members ‘supports’ Manchester United)
I have some cool stories, but this is how every single one of them has started, and it always relates to football and United’s global popularity. So when Mooy and Depoitre brought us a 2-1 victory in 2017, that was for every single time I’m still asked, even today about how I must support Manchester bloody United. Screw Manchester United. UTFT

Hi! As a student currently watching town from my year abroad in Chile it's got me wondering, where are people following town from outside the UK? (If there are any others!) Would be interested to hear your stories! Now Boca Raton, Florida. Previously Miami (FL), Los Angeles (CA), Dallas (TX). |

Whereabouts? We are heading that way for our summer holidays to visit some of your wonderful national parks I'm about 4 hours due east of Yellowstone (225ish miles by car) and 6 hours (370ish miles by car) from Grand Teton. A town called Sheridan. An early welcome to Wyoming. Enjoy your trip and keep a healthy distance away from the wildlife. We call it tourist tossing season around here.  |

Gold Coast, Australia.
Made it back for 2017 (good), and 2022 (not so good).
Last town goal I saw live was Izzy Brown's first for us.

I'm from Lancashire, been here on missionary work since 1968 - still treated as a 'comer innerer' 🤣. PS: 'Mixed marriage' as well as I married a 'Golcar Lass' - that didn't half raise some eyebrows with some of her elderly relatives nearly 40 years ago 😲 |

A town called Sheridan. An early welcome to Wyoming. Enjoy your trip and keep a healthy distance away from the wildlife. We call it tourist tossing season around here. We are actually spending a night in Sheridan, to break the journey up from Rapid City over to Yellowstone - small world! Don't worry we will give the local wildlife a wide berth. I guess you get to see the numpty behaviour of some of the tourists! |

PS: 'Mixed marriage' as well as I married a 'Golcar Lass' - that didn't half raise some eyebrows with some of her elderly relatives nearly 40 years ago 😲 I remember my dad taking me and my sister to look down from one of the bridges to see the M62 being built. Must have been ‘71 or ‘72. It was just bare earth. I never thought it would be such a major part of my life for 50 years. The white rose marker is always kept clean, the red rose is always grimy. Happiest M62 moment, driving down into Lancashire and overtaking (slowly) a load of Man U coaches with my scarves flying - October 2017. Probably no one gave a bugger but seemed symbolic. |
