Brighton & Hove Albion. Some of their supporters hate other teams for no rational reason.
Quit the pretentious hand-wringing and get over yourself, FFS. Football is all about irrational loves and hates.
Anyway, I like that other clubs don't like us anymore. Sick to the back teeth of supporting plucky old Brighton. 'Everyone likes 'em because they're no threat' - type of thing.
We DO have billy big bollocks, look at out fancy stadium, we have spanish flair tippy tappy players and manager, we are better than you and our chairman is a real fan syndrome. We (not all but some) have gone from a loveable hard-done by club to blind arrogance and i dont like it much. For the record i don't blame anyone other than us, the fans, we should have self-policed it out in the first season at the AMEX but we (most of us) went along for the ride adn enjoyed it. Thats why this summer took such a hit on peoples self perception. I (like some) just thanked i wasn't getting stone cold chips and soaked to the bone at the withdean.
As a follow up thought i think this season is slightly reducing that arrogance: Seeing our enemy beat us, go through the summer of discontent, getting a more humble manager and losing a few games is helping.
Really surprised there are no Millwall haters on here.My 3 reasons.
1.Saturdays time wasting antics.
2.Homophobic abuse.
3.That fat ba*st*rd in red trying to nick our ball even though he looked as if he had eaten one already.
I HATE Millwall.
Yep, I quite Leeds. The helped create a GREAT atmosphere when they played down here a couple of years ago in that televised 3-3. Plus, my uncle supports them and I quite like him as he is a proper football bloke.Good shout. Although I don't get the Leeds hating. Top fans.
If I had to pick a rival this year based on geographical distance/recent history of bad blood I guess it'd be Reading.
Can't stand Wednesday/Leeds/Forest fans who seem to think they're still some kind of big shots though.
Have you only ever been to one match? You'd hate everyone if those are you criteria for hating something.
i don't need to wait for the poll. It's leeds.
Is nobody going to mention Chelsea? The only club in the league (at that time) who refused to write a letter of support for our new home to John Prescott.
So where are you chimps in the league then
This is unreal, didnt you tell us 'you would never play us again'...or perhaps it was Reading ? Must of been them, you are a bit more grounded.
Anyway you will be pleased to hear we are still spending like there's no tomorrow, our bully boy chairman has left and given full control to the billionaire Russian guys. Its crazy.
I don't need to wait for the poll. It's Leeds.
