Can you ever stop supporting your football team?

Whether it’s self-made or forced upon you, the decision about which football team to support is usually taken before you learn to ride a bike or even tie your shoelaces. But can ever stop supporting your football team?

The BBC’s Nesta McGregor is joined by lifelong Manchester United fan Deborah Henry and psychologist Dr Richard Simpson. Deborah tells us it’s a case of “never say never” in terms of whether she could ever turn her back on United, but she doesn’t believe a fan can stop supporting their club.

Dr Simpson claims to support three different football teams, and explains the emotional bonds that fans build with their teams – and why, despite those bonds, he does believe fans can turn their backs on their clubs.
