Whilst not in agreement with the ownership of so many clubs have an admiration for Man City who buy players to fit into there team rather than just best players available. Certainly Chelsea on basis of spending fortune without much thought are now top of my dislike list. Just think clubs that behave like this dont deserve to suceed. Same category I would include Man Utd before present manager Fulham a couple of years ago and Forest this season. Derby when in championship.
If you were to ask the opposite question only PL club apart from Albion I really admire is Brentford who of course only other one owned by a supporter.

Palace first and foremost with Pompey a very close second. Horrible club with one of the biggest (and smelliest) bell ends in the whole league as a famous super-fan. Fratton is a shit hole within a shit hole and the whole area is an artless, godforsaken cesspit that people should be sent to as punishment for doing something really naughty like walking diagonally in a shopping centre. The ground is "old school" by which you can infer run down, in the wrong place and full of entitled people that no one can understand. Robbed their way to the Premier League, robbed their way to an FA Cup and still seem to think they're the biggest club on the south coast, even though the evidence suggests they're no longer even as big as Bournemouth.

To which you can also add Bournemouth. To locate your ground in somewhere that looks like you've just been spat out of Dr Who's Tardis into a dystopian parallel universe still stuck in 1975 is astonishing, considering that what you're famous for is golden sands and ropey B&Bs full of Daily Express reading pensioners. Noddy fans, when they can be bothered to turn up, which is almost never, and only where they are today due to being the money laundering plaything of someone who didn't even have the balls to stay Russian when it came on top.

I hate pretty much any club when we play them then usually go back to disliking them a day or two later (the same day if we beat them).

When not playing them, perhaps on Man U, Liverpool and Celtic are the worst for me, although there are always exceptions to the rules as I have met pretty interesting fans for both Man U and Liverpool.

I'm thinking this as clubs I would think "urgh" if they were in the prem.

My reasoning? I hate the camera angles at their grounds. Fulham have now escaped this by raising the camera angle into their new stand.

Bournemouth
QPR
West Ham
Luton Town
Birmingham City
Now, I have a theory.
I think most of the reason for shit coverage is the people doing the filming. It seems that every time the ball goes in the box, the camera zooms in, whizzes around, and really messes up what could be a good bit of action.
The poor viewer is left wondering what the f*** happened.

I just can't cope with 'flat' camera angles. The Wembley one upsets me.
It complete ruins depth perception.

Full disclosure, I've "followed" Arsenal since I was 8 (I didn't think in 1995 that Brighton and Arsenal would ever be in the same stratosphere let alone league). The Highbury camera angle pushed me pretty close to giving up on them at times.

QPR is just odd.

It is annoying how hateable Leeds are, having moved here. Shame there isn't another league club here as well that people like - it's a great city otherwise.
Fortunately I actually live closer to Valley Parade than Elland Road (5 miles vs 8). In fact in a lot of ways they're opposites one is a nice club in a town that is sadly, very run down, the other is a hateful club in a great city.

Leeds - my hatred of Leeds predates any rivalry with Palace - ignorant, arrogant thugs, fans & players. Revie should never have been England manager.
Palace
Villa

Really Palace out front by a country mile (its different for the fans of the 70's/80's).

Manure (Never liked them or Fergie).
Leeds (total knuckle draggers)
Massive (complete Numpties)

(with the last two both suffering serious delusions of grandeur)

So, who do we collectively hate?

This takes us up until @fly high's submission.

I've run them through a word cloud generator.

So far, Everton haven't been mentioned. Somehow, they have escaped our wrath.

I've included all teams mentioned, except for when the poster indicates that they don't dislike them anymore. I though Fulham might escape censure but @amexer ruined that.

Arsenal - media darlings, national treasures, and of all the Sussex plastics I know, by far the highest number are Arsenal fans. Like all big clubs they have an ignorant and entitled fanbase, who are largely dismissive of the likes of BHA, and Ben White sold to/playing for them still grates, hate seeing him in that shirt.

There are a fair few other clubs I dislike, but the 4 above are the ones I actively seek out results for and hope they've lost.
