I’m a Brit and the whole ‘relocation’ thing has always been a bit fascinating to me. Totally understand why teams move, and I totally understand why fans hate it, but I’ve never really been sure on what the etiquette is for fans of teams who have moved on.

    If you’re Canadian, we get angry and petition/speculate/complain endlessly about bringing back our team until it happens.

      Interesting aside to this is what happens if a team moves into your city and you’re already an established fan of another team.

      I imagine I’d maintain my support of OG team, but ultimately end up splitting my allegiances across the two as I ultimately end up seeing games in person rather than on TV.

      We don’t really do the ‘multi-team’ thing in the UK.
