If anyone gives you grief for being a geek...

they have a lifetime obsession of watching a bunch of overpaid guys kicking a piece of leather round a park all afternoon (or evening), yet they say that railway enthusiasts have a strange hobby

[eddieleslie]

and they all cosplay as their favourite player at those weekly meets!

[marthaanderson]

never though about it that way. They call themselves "fans" but their passion is geeky as well.

One of my best mates is a football nerd…he can recite so many facts and figures about the beautiful game…. Mind you, he does get paid a healthy sum to do it 🙂 I don’t think my knowledge of railways and waggonways of the North East will ever pay me the same 😜

[eddieleslie]

Its only the stats that makes football interesting

Im used to being called a tech head. Yet the first that gets asked to fix something. So who wins?

[CycloneChilli]

No way my local tram stop! Use this to get to work everyday

I get called a geek, and when they do I won't help them when their computer dies :-) (Dead computer = Plug the effing cable in!) And that's how I became a computer geek.

[rogwansalvador]

its socially accepted to be a 'geek' to the most popular sport in the world

[LadyAnuB]

Like people over here in the US but we use different sports

[Rail_Focus]

Football geeks are socially acceptable though 🙄

[andysessford]
