Poll: Where do we all follow Manly from?

[weev]

In the heart of rabbit territory.

 

[Shnorky]

Born in the car going up Darley rd to Manly hospital, bit of a westy now 4k west of Pittwater Rd. Parents were dragons fans as manly didnt exist when they were young. I came to my senses around 8 year old and never looked back. Great memories of watching live games at brookie then racing home to watch Sunday replay after the news

 

[Rodo]

Grew up on the Northern Beaches but sadly left when I started working down the southern end of Sydney. Now residing close to work in enemy territory but still proudly flying the Manly flag.

Moved back to coast, still love my time on the northern beaches.

Lived on the Northern Beaches all my life - for the last 25 years at North Narrabeen. My mum followed Manly, so I did too.
Earliest recollection is of our first GF win in 1972!

Manly public school...always Manly v Parra in the playground ( was about twenty kids v three or four) ...used to walk an hour and a half to Brooky from the age of about 11 every second Sunday.

[Eagle1]

Born overseas,been supporting this great club over 40 years,living in the western part of Sydney,manly till I die.

 

[Wyllie Eagle]

Schooled over the road from Brookie Oval. Lived Dee Why, Cromer most of my life. Moved to Canberra 8 years ago where I proudly drive around with Manly seat covers and window stickers. Will retire back to the northern beaches where eventually my ashes will be scattered behind the posts at the scoreboard end because that's where I first sat as a kid growing up watching the likes of Wombat, Gartner, Igor, Bombthrower, Gibbsey (socks down, chin up), Igor et al grace the hallowed turf. An absolute honour and privilege following such a great club!

 

[StuBoot]

I voted but take umbrage that I'm regarded as Western Sydney by the poll.
Been a supporter for a tick over 40 years, born and bred at Epping.
