I gotta question for you UK breh's.

I understand you have bare divisions in your pyramid. Do you support a club from the premier league and let's say a smaller local club you might have ties to?

Is it common?

Over here in Canada even though hockey is king and it's not common for people to support teams in lower divisions.

If you live in Ottawa you support the Senators(NHL tier 1) and rarely find a 67s fan (OHL div under NHL)
Brentford was always my local team as I played for them when I was young and its the team I would see play the most from getting free tickets. Feels weird for me seeing them in the prem competing vs my fav team man utd as I'm used to them struggling in league1 when they were broke and owned by the fans.

Most londoners support big clubs like arsenal Chelsea Tottenham utd Liverpool but outside big cities small teams are well supported by their towns

In America, you generally have a PL, La Liga or Bundesliga team. For example, St. Pauli in 2. Bundesliga has a sizable American following. But you also support your local club even if it's MLS, MLS2 or USL.

Like Detroit City FC has followings rivaling some MLS teams even though it's a middling USL team. But Michigan and Northern Ohio don't have an MLS team so people support that the hardest.
