st pauli. tho torino is a good one. club with a great history and roots, which as time goes on has been losing more and more of the new generation to the glamour of juventus - who ive always despised. then there's il grande torino

I'm not finding this easy. I'm only getting ties when I try to judge by haplessness (City/Atletico), misfortune (Everton/Torino, ok not really), or lol naming attempts to secure primary status (Birmingham/Espanyol).

Voted 1860 when I found out they won the Bundesliga before Bayern did (1966 vs 1969), since when Bayern have been champions 21 times while 1860 finished fourth once.

I dunno if people know the story of Torino, but it is a horrific one and I will always have mad sympathy for them.

Basically imagine Utd, after the Munich air disaster then losing the likes of Charlton and Best to City and all their fans being shocked and jaded by the horrors and all going to City as well, leaving them with no money and a massive shadow over their future. This is essentially what happened to Torino, with Juventus as City in the analogy.
