Having read other clubs fan forums and talking to various fans up and down the country, I find it really amusing the names they give to their rivals - definitely not complimentary! A few examples:

Ipswich call Norwich : Nodge.
Birmingham City call Aston Villa : The Vile
Man City call Man Utd : The Rags
Liverpool call Everton : the Bitters
All Yorkshire clubs call Barnsley : The Dingles

Anyone know any others, and how they originated? :lol:

I hate it when people use Palarse, The Nigels, Manure, Scumhampton, Borient, Wet Sham, Stains, Spuds, PortScum etc.

Frankly, it's just embarrassing and small time.

The worst of the lot is Crippled Alice.

I couldn't bring myself to use those types of names. Utterly cringeworthy.

Man U call Liverpool the "granny-stabbers" !

Spurns from some incident in the 70's I think when a old girl got caught up in a ruck.
