Why You Dislike Other Teams ? (1 Viewer)

[bringbackrattles]

It's common knowledge that many City fans dislike Villa and Leicester City,but besides those two are there other clubs that are disliked ? I have loathed Man United since the 70's as they used to waltz into Highfield Road and take over most of the ground,and it used to really piss me off. And when I was fifteen at the Hawthorns an Albion fan smacked me in the mouth as I was about to get on the coach,and swiped my scarf as well,so W.B.A. was on my hate list for many years because of that yob. Any more ?

I don't really mind Villa or Leicester (I know blah blah, but I really don't). For some reason I have always despised Sheff Utd long before the weekend's ugly game - horrible team, horrible fans and I don't like Bramall Lane either. I also dislike Leeds and Sunderland. I'm not anti northerner, but I would rather see any midlands side doing well than those up north or the cockneys, just a shame most midlands sides are useless on a regular basis.

That was a Forest player that broke Curtis leg but yes Wolves were a club we had a big rivalry with.

I've never met a friendly Leeds fan ever and had some run ins with them over the years. Chelsea fans have a swagger about them and so a season struggling at the bottom will do them good.For me it's usually fans of a club that can make me dislike their team.

 

[Rodders1]

Hi really don't like Leicester. I live in the city's fall my in-laws support them. Love the city but can't stand the team!

Villa just because of the day we got relegated and seeing all of those numpties singing "we'll meet again" - arrrggghh still annoys me now!!

I also don't like Norwich - this is from having two glory supporting mates when I was a kid. Remember when they beat Bayern in Europe with that jeremy goss goal? Think they've just stopped talking about it.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

West Ham all that this team doesn't play the West Ham way bs.

plus Northampton Town for letting us go there.

Yes Frank Wignall I was wrong on the team yet right on the player..... id only been at games then for 3 years I was 11 when it happened.... yet he had his leg broken on the pitch again which ended his career as a player didn't he

For me it has to be chelsea (not worth a capital c). I think it was 1997 and we played them at Highfield road, kit clash ment they had to wear our away kit and we beat them i think 3-1 or 3-0. At the end of the game several chelsea players walked up to the City Kop end and took their top off, spat on where the badge goes (there was tape over the badge) and then through them on the floor and stamped on the Cov top. Really made me mad and i will never forgive them for that, shit club shit fans. Rotten from the bottom to the top. Hope they go bust and cease to exist, for me after the way they dishonored our Club, our Badge and our City they can rot in Hell forever. I have actually met some nice chelsea fans, so obviously this is a generalisation).

Who spat on the shirt?! I was at that game; I saw LeBoeuf and Hughes standing on the shirts, but I didn't see any spitting...rotten bastards.

I knew a Chelsea fan from school, right arsehole he was, born in Cornwall but he thought he qualified as a Chelsea fan 'cos his dad was from the area. He soon quietened down after a few studs-up tackles on the pitch at break time.

Personally, I have always loathed the usual suspects (Villa, Man Utd, Sheff Utd, Derby) but I really, really cannot abide Hull City. Remember when we played them in the cup in '95? Those neanderthal fans of theirs made monkey noises every time Nii Lamptey got the ball, and a group of them were loitering for a rumble outside in Vauxhall Street after the match. Nasty, thuggish wankers.

 

[olderskyblue]

Everton

A "mate" of mine who supported them tried to screw me over in a business we owned. He failed, got screwed over himself. Karma. but hated him and them ever since.

 

[NorthernWisdom]

Birmingham. All this ego trip about them being a massive club, a sleeping giant when Gold and SUllivan took them over.

No bigger than us. In fact if we bitch about our crowds, should see some of the gates they got when down in our division.

Leeds have been the most thuggish I have encountered.

Set on by 4 big fat balding 30-40 something Leeds fans when I was just 16 and walking home from the match all by myself and then when we beat them in the FA Cup semi-final and loads of City fans were in their cars driving home in almost stationary traffic outside the ground, there were loads of Leeds fans walking down the sides of the cars, banging on windows and gunning for a fight. Like snarling rabid dogs they were.

Then of course there was the time at HR where we beat them 4-0 and they were ripping the seats out in the M&B Stand and throwing them at the City fans.

Every Leeds fan I have encountered has been scum unfortunately.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Millwall can be added to mine I was threatened by one of them in the car park at the ricoh he kept shouting saying come over here by my car and i will beat you up so i said if you come to me away from all your mates lets see you try and in the end i just walked off big and brave in a gang.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Man Utd - Going to school in the 90s in Cov it was pretty much 50/50 City fans and Man f'in Utd fans, still pisses me off to this day them saying how cov are shit when they have no idea about hat football supporting is. I still to this day end up arguing with random glory supporters. weirdly this hate never transferred to any of the other successful teams.

Wolves - I think it was about 2006 when we drew 2-2 there, Paul Ince may have scored an early goal for them?? I remember the trouble, being escorted back to the station even though i was going to a friends place in wolves, when i finally got away from the OB just hearing the vice comments from wolves fans, stuff like "lets find some cov fans to kill" scumbags

Its generally fans that annoy me more than teams though, down here in the SW i work with a few Bristol Rovers fans and I decided to go to a game with one of them, in the pub before hand him and his mates arguing about spurs and arsenal, when i asked why they told me that they were their 'second teams'

Yeah, Leeds fans are a given, sadly. A law unto themselves, inside and outside the stadium. The rabid dogs analogy was perfect 'cos the vicious bastards always go in packs, like when you were set upon. Never dreamed of going to Elland Rd in all my years as a supporter, never will either.

Oh and Liquid Gold, yeah I feel your pain, mate. Absolute nightmare at school in the 90's, even fucking girls who 'supported' Man Utd would try and take the piss. I always asked them to name three Utd players, they never got past Giggs and Cantona.

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

I've always had a dislike of Sheffield Utd for no real reason other than I didn't like them. As a kid I hated Bristol City because I kept getting too many Gerry Gow's in my panini stickers.

 

[lifeskyblue]

Never really liked Leeds or liverpool...the most successful teams of my teenage years. For the same reason I don't care for man Utd or Chelsea. It's the arrogance of managers and fans and the fawning of the media that really gets to me. They manipulate the game and get away with decisions (on and off the pitch) that most clubs don't.

Can I add a foreign one in and it's Barcelona when anybody tries to stop them they say that the opposition should play open football like them.

 

[bringbackrattles]

When I started the thread I had a feeling the reason we hate certain teams is because of their fans,and from reading most of the comments I was right. Leeds Chelsea,Millwall,Wolves,are really disliked nationwide and not just by us !

Leeds though were also thoroughly disliked for the Dirty Leeds tag of the 1970's and yep, they were a very, very dirty side and the first English team I ever remember diving, cheating, time-wasting, feigning injury and using negative tactics.

It was ridiculous really, because they could play the most lovely football when they wanted to and there was no need to resort to such underhand style of play.

So they are also disliked by many for that.

Yes they were a strange side in the 70's especially as one week they were kicking anything that moved,the next they'd play some great stuff. Remember the bit in the film The Damned United when Brian Clough said to the Leeds players: " Throw all your medals in that bin,as you got them through cheating !" That sealed Cloughie's fate as the players wouldn't play for him after that.

 

[Gazolba]

Some really illogical reasons for hating teams in these posts. I don't dislike any other teams. The only exception being the team we are currently playing against. I dislike dirty players, lazy players and prima donna players. Also I kind of dislike any red-haired Scottish players (or ex-Players) if I cant understand their accent.

Without sounding biased but our club has never been high on a disliked club list has it ? In fact I reckon on a well liked club list we'd be high up !

Okay. Knew none of that at all.

Leicester fans love you. Hate Forest, Chelsea and Celtic. Don't mind Derby and they don't care about us either

Always thought you had a three way thing with Forest and Derby.

Is it to do with distance?

Eh? How is it illogical to base an emotion like hatred on something tangible?

The only thing tangible to me (aged 15) when I was ran at by 3 large Hull fans was fear and shit in my pants. Had to bloody windmill my way through them and roadrunner home!

 

[turlykerd]

i was very nearly stabbed at the villa on the day Regis got his hat trick , i actually had no issues with them until then.

 

[chiefdave]

Villa for me, it was always Villa when I started going so thats pretty much the reason.

Although I did get smacked in the face by a Villa fan outside HR once which didn't help. It was after the 2-1 which was our first win over them. Had been on the kop as usual and after the game was walking towards Gosford Green, but had only just got out the ground. Out of the blue, without anything happening before hand and no other trouble going on some Villa fan whacked me. Took me totally by surprise, by the time I realised what had happened he was gone.

Not too keen on Pomey since living down here. A large chunk of their fanbase still don't grasp that they are where they are as they overspent and they seriously believe they have the best fans / atmosphere in the world. The delusion is incredible.

 

[ddsdube]

West Ham - media bias, celebrity fans, thinking they won the World Cup, the West Ham way

Portsmouth - bought the fa cup by overspending and then wanted sympathy when it went tits up

Like Man U as I had a George Best video as a kid and went to uni there, but good points about the 90s glory fans. Lived with a couple who'd never been to Manchester before. When they opted out of the fa cup they said it was a worthless tin pot competition anyway - arrogant, non-mancunian pricks

 

[mechaishida]

Interesting Wolves 70's anecdote coming up, courtesy of step-dad who fancied himself as a 'Cov Ultra'...pfft:

Basically, he starts kicking off during the cup game (??) at Molineux, gets arrested with his mate - and because he gave the Coppers so much stick and gob, they chucked him in a cell with 4 Wolves fans...

...later, he met his friend outside when they were released, he says to my step-dad:

''Oi, Paul, did you hear that poor bastard in the cells screaming like a woman? He must have had a right kicking."

To which the inevitable response was: "That was meeeeeeeeee!!"

So yeah, he hates Wolves. Their fans are quite ignorant and nasty, but otherwise, couldn't care less.
