I hate Manchester United.
The teams i want to do well are Swansea and Machester City (just to piss off the Reds).
Even now you still want city to do well? Even though they're a disgusting, soulless club?
This is logical, I like it.
Hate:
QPR
Man Utd
Liverpool
Stoke City
Man City
West Ham
Chelsea
Woolwich
Don't Care:
Reading
Newcastle
Villa
Sunderland
Everton
Fulham
Norwich
Southampton
Wigan
West Brom
Barely Like:
Swansea
you-know-who not even worth mentioning, good on ya!
There was a time I had empathy with Manchester City and thought their fans were quality for turning up even two divisions down. In some ways, I can't begrudge those supporters the success they are having but as to whether I like them? No.
My first part time job was setting up the stalls in Camden Market, I worked with a northern called Barry who supported Crewe so I have always had a soft spot for them. And, if you must know, not only was our record score against Crewe 13 -2 but we departed from platform 13 to get to Crewe and arrived back on platform 2 (or something like that)...don't thank me...

I agree with this. I knew a City fan, he had followed them all the way down and all the way back up again. When they started getting involved with Shiniwatra and then the Sheiks he got dis enchanted. he started following Swansea then (They were still in the Championship.)
I don't understand how you can start supporting another club. I completely understand the disillusion, more so with Sinawatra but can you truly ever support another team? Surely it is just offering greater attention to another side. Is he still a Swansea fan or did he return to City?
Still a Swansea fan, he still looks out for the City results etc. But he has a season ticket at the Liberty now.
As long as they continue to upset the Reds.
Also, i really like some of their players.
But you're right. They don't have a soul.
Ah, this seems like a good thread to start on - kind of like helping to get some of the stress and pain out of one's system. I don't mind Fulham, Everton and West Brom, but then I probably dislike everyone else. Most disliked are as follows:
1. Chavs
2. = Spammers and Goons
4. Scousers (I was a kid in the 80s - plus they try to be some kind of romantic Barca/Celtic bollox)
5. QPR
Then it's hard to pick between a right mass of crap like Sunderland, Newcastle, Stoke, Villa etc - sod it, I hate them all.
I think City proved in the bleak years that they are still a solid club with proper fans, and I think a lot of the hatred they now receive is based on jealousy. Imagine if Woolwich had been as succesful as United - would we not feel we deserved a bit of glory? Don't we feel that way anyway?

Cunts - Woolwich, Chelsea, West Ham, Liverpool, Man Shitty, Stoke.
Mugs - Aston Villa, QPR.
Couldn't give a monkies... - Man U, West Brom, Norwich, Reading, Newcastle (have found some humility since being relegated, no more world cup winning WHAM type talk from them.) Sunderland and Reading.
Don't mind - Southampton (Their games always seem to have a few goals in them, otherwise completely indifferent.)
Slight respect for - Everton, Wigan sticking to their guns despite not getting the best of results and where other local areas would be employing hoofing tactics.
A lot of respect for - Swansea, For going from the lower leagues to the Prem and doing it in style and never deviating away from that philosophy with not a superstar amongst them.
I enjoyed that, good topic.

Got a soft spot for Newcastle as it's the missus' team. Like Everton and United are my lesser-evil team when it comes to the title race. Outside of the Premier League I also have a fondness for Derby County.
There are other Premier League teams?
How can you hate Chelsea more than Woolwich? That's not right. :defoe:
United are a necessary evil, since they're the team that generally makes sure that the Chavs and Gooners doesn't get a shot at the title.
Teams I don't mind:
Everton - Moyes makes something out of nothing and I find Liverpool a bloody awful team, so rooting for their rivals feels good.
Swansea - Attractive football, take risks with unknown players and that whole underdog thing is quite nice.
Southhampton - Purely because of Le Tiss.
Fulham - Don't know why really...
Wigan - I like Martinez and Wigan can from time to time upset the odds and get a result against Woolwich and the like.
Complete and utter apathy:
Sunderland
WBA
Reading
Villa
Newcastle
Strong dislike:
Stoke - is that even football? Negative, slow paced, boring as shite. Thugs.
QPR
Liverpool - the only thing that makes up for this team is that my dad's a fan. He never tried to convert me as a kid though, and of that I'm extremely grateful. Went to Anfield with him on his 50th birthday and had a nice time, but my god, Liverpool is a proper shitty place.
White hot hatred:
Chavs
Gooners
West Ham
City
Limbo
Man U - they beat us, steal our players and are a general bloody pain in the arse, but they take points off of City, Woolwich and Chelsea and any team that does that is alright in my book.
