Are Portsmouth really our second biggest rivals?

 

[burrish gull]

I've always hated Pompey more than Palace myself, nasty bunch of inbreds, god I hope they get relegated this season.

I can't open it. Can anyone cut and paste for me?

 

[Soton Seagull]

I voted in this a month or so back and voted Palace 1st and Pompey 2nd. Pompey are 2nd nearest and genuinely unpleasant.

Thanks, but I don't think I can be arsed now.

I have a headache.

Yep pretty much hatred both ways, we hate the scum as much as they hate us and secondly we hate the inbreds as much as they hate us. Always will be those two for me

Perfect

I also noticed the mighty Leyton Orient have us as 3rd rivals. Seems as though that Herts based O has been voting.

Pretty interesting stuff to be honest. Quite surprised to see no less than FIVE clubs (Palace, Pompey, Bournemouth, Brentford and Orient) count us among their rivals. Are we really that bad?

I have heard you could be arsed.

I'm always surprised at football rivalries elsewhere in the country. When I lived in Greater Manchester I used to go and watch a lot of Stockport. The most intense rivalry they had was with Burnley (why?) and Chester City. Neither could be classed as closest neighbours.

While in Plymouth I used to find it funny that Exeter and Argyle hated each other while neither used to have any kind of grudge against Torquay

Shut it Pete.

Unlike you, my bottom is a safe haven away from BEADS!

What are our top 5 team haters? I hope Reading are in there. Bunch of hypocritical, money grabbing

me too. inbred twats.

The one that I liked was the rivalry between Wimbledon and AFC. I can unstand that the AFC boys would hate Franchise Utd, but how petty is it to hate a side that is seven (?) divisions below you?

And what's this about Arsenal's main rivals being Man U? That doesn't square that the stat that only about 7% of rivalries were based on proximity to each other in the league - were all the people who supported that proposition arsenal fans?

 

[Dave the OAP]

what a load of poo

so Chelsea recon AFC Wimbledon or vice versa to be their second rivals...yeah right!

I agree with Town hating the w****** from Leeds though. May they spiral out of the league and never darken our doorsteps again them and their horrible fans.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Arsenal hate Tottenham with a passion.

I take it the majority of people who answered the poll were little children

It only quoted the top 3 hated teams for each club. Ours are Palace, Pompey and Reading (in that order).

 

[Albion Rob]

Brighton roundly disliked

Check out the link, we feature in a lot of people's three most hated clubs and also Palace rate us number one, despite what some who come on here would have you believe.

I think Spurs' third most hated must be a misprint...

 

[Blackadder]

Interesting reading.

Colchester/Wycombe is a strange rivalry!!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Good to see that S***hurst still rate us as their main rivals.

Eat your heart out, Millwall and Charlton
