If your favourite franchise moved, would you continue to support them or switch to another team, be them closer or not? (feddit.uk)

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.

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.
