What do they do? They can't support a local rival as they will be natural enemies. It just seems to finish the fan's involvement with the sport.
I love the sport, but I hope that transitory system stays your side of the Atlantic
You guys should get rid of Stan Kroenke and any other American that tries to buy your teams. Not only will relocation be common but say goodbye to promotion and relegation as well, if you allow it to continue.

Expos left & broke my heart.
I was more heartbroken about the strike stealing our shot at winning it all. The team moving was the inevitable and predictable end after that lost postseason, and the subsequent fire sale ending all hope.

Moving teams like this gives the NFL a minor league sort of vibe.
True...Although the Rams belonged to LA before St. Louis stole them and I guess the Chargers were technically in LA for their first season but it is sad to see.i still can not believe that in a so fast time we could have
LA RAMS
LA CHARGERS
LV RAIDERS
i am still astonished, sad...
terrible for their fans base
3 franchises...
I envy the Brits and other countries where the fan feels part of an historically important link to the team.
