He wasn't a gooner, cockney red or headhunter, but he did write Champions thinking about football.
He did play hockey.
Yes he liked football. His fav. team was the Oakland Raiders.
He use to play tennis, am I right? I have pictures of him in Ibiza, topless, with a tennis racket in a courts ground.

I saw freddie with elton john at newcastle united when watford were playing them. Elton john was watfords chairman then!!!
Not sure weather freddie enjoyed the game though, although 2 years later queen came to st james park (newcastle united) so he must of been impressed with the atmosphere..........

i dont know whether he likes football or not but one thing i know is he didn't write the song for football anthem...he wrote it for the the gay community..
Straight from Freddie:
"I was thinking about football when I wrote it. I wanted a participation song, something that the fans could latch on to. It was aimed at the masses; I thought we'd see how they took it. It worked a treat. When we performed it at a private concert in London, the fans actually broke into a football chant between numbers. Of course, I've given it more theatrical subtlety than an ordinary football chant. You know me".

So it is about football, not the gay community.
