Football supporter claims he has found his 'future wife' at away game... one month after getting rival fan's number at Manchester City

For many, an hour-and-a-half in an away end on a Saturday afternoon is the highlight of a long, hard week, providing a chance to watch the sport they love and take their minds off everyday worries.

But very few can claim to have found romance on the terraces, with the stands more commonly associated with chanting, shouting and soggy pies than true love.

One diehard, however, has put his fellow fans to shame, scoring not once but twice already this season while watching his Fulham side surge into the European places.

Last month, X user @Lukehsffc was spotted crossing the divide and getting a rival supporter's number during his team's 3-2 defeat at Manchester City, winning off the pitch even if the Cottagers could not seal victory on it.
