Adopting Brest means France Ligue 1 results start mattering to you, a club going since 1950. Not a novelty, a habit.

Modern era club
Formed in 1950, so the whole story is documented, arguable and still being written. Join now and you were basically there from the start.
Loaded cabinet
6 distinct honours on record, including Ligue 2. Adopt them and you inherit expectation, which is more fun than it sounds when the trophies keep coming.
Close to the pitch
Stade Francis-Le Blé holds about 15,220. You can hear the defenders shouting at each other, which is the single best argument for lower-capacity football.
You get a nickname
Known as Les Pirates (The Pirates) Les Ty' Zefs (The Little Winds). That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.

Ground: Stade Francis-Le Blé. Go in a day early, find the pre-match pub, buy the programme.
