1. New England
2. None. If I didn't already follow Villa, it would be New England Revolution, which was formed in 1996, but...
3. I became obsessed with Villa in 1994 when PL highlights started being shown here. Everything about Villa seemed so steeped in tradition and passion. The Trinity Rd stand woodwork, the noise from the Holte End, the mysterious atmosphere in the ground that is just awesome in the true sense of the word. The name of the club, the colors...and it didn't hurt that the team played nice football. "Villa picked me" is kind of cliche by now, but for me it's sort of true. But I had to be open minded to comprehend the really unique aura that the club had, and still has on better days. I made the pilgrimage in 1999, but haven't been back since. Maybe when we are at Wembley next spring I'll make it over again.
