Most Disliked, and Why - talkSAFT - 13-03-2015
I've told myself not to keep using the word hate. So, which Club do you dislike most, and why. Dingles and Seals will be top of the list, but who else?
I've changed from ManU to Chelsea, so their fans would deduce that that's simple jealousy. Perhaps they'd be right, but I'd point out that I really liked Liverpool for 20-30 years, and they won everything, but......their fans were good winners: they won with humility, and even applauded opposing teams. (Perhaps that's a bit over-smug, but at least it's more sporting than thrashing and laughing!) I'd like to think that Albion fans (if we ever had an Abramovitch) would not go all cocky. But I do remember back in the 60s, taking the piss out of Blues/Villa/Wolves fans mercilessly when we had our moments of glory - and they didn't!
My old man brought me up to dislike Cockneys, but I've got rid of that phobia, and quite like Arsenal and Spurs.
I think it's mainly the fans who give an impression one way or another of their Club, so I'd include Stoke as dislikeable
but haven't got round to disliking Man City yet, probably because I haven't met many of their fans.Over to you..... any interesting reasons?

I've had a long-held dislike of Liverpool which has intensified since Rodgers joined them. I think this comes about for me by personal, though limited, experience of their fans and the media's pandering and simpering to them and their Club. They are treated as cheeky chappies and great sports. Well, they might be when they're winning but they're like many others when losing - fairly nasty. Second thoughts, in my personal experience, they're not even too good when they winning.
Surprisingly, I've always found Everton and Everton supporters to be exactly what Liverpool FC is reputed to be, knowledgeable, friendly and sporting. Consequently I like Everton and generally want them to do well - except against us, obviously.
How can this be? They're only across a park from one another in the same city. Partly personal perceptions, I suppose. One of the puzzles, delights or annoyances of being a lifetime football fanatic.

I'll start with QPR, even though 'Bagpuss' has now gone. Any club happy to give Joey Barton a home has got to be suspect. The little sh**e.
An intense dislike too of Leeds Utd which goes all the way back to Don Revie and Billy Bremner. I always remember the season when Revie said they were going to win all competitions and finished up winning none of them Hahaha.
Nottingam Forest were also on my list until the 'poisoned dwarf' was sacked.
FINALLY and inevitably Man Utd whose supporters are deluded enough to think that they are going to win everything every season.

Other than the obvious two i've got a real dislike for Chelsea, A club with no class whatsoever, A arrogant manager, jumped up Johnny-come-lately supporters plus the Ramires dive and even worse Mourinho's commented after the game.
RE: Most Disliked, and Why - talkSAFT - 13-03-2015
Leeds is a good shout, Silver. I worked up there for some years, and most of the citizens are deluded. They think Yorkshire's the centre of the Universe, and even the most reasonable Yorkies are actually proud of their Yobs' reputation.
RE: Most Disliked, and Why - Northwalesbaggie - 13-03-2015
In no particular Order: Chelski, (appalling scenes against PSG says it all!!), The Dingles (no explanation needed), The Vile (ditto),
Notts Forest (until "wee billy was sacked"), The Clayheads (just cos they always beat us & will do tomorrow
).
RE: Most Disliked, and Why - BaggieMan - 13-03-2015
1) Leeds United
(they have the most deluded fans on the planet who still think they are a massive club that should be rated alongside the likes of the Man Utd's, Arsenal's, Man City's, Chelsea's of this world)
2) The Vile
(they still live in the past and their European Cup wins when in truth they are also rans)
3) Chelsea
(because they just buy success and all their fans are glory hunters and they cheat)
4) Manchester City
(also because they just buy success and all their fans are glory hunters)
5) Arsenal
(I dislike Arsène Wenger as he thinks Arsenal have a God given right to win everything and his "I didn't see it" comments
6) Manchester United
(again buy success and again believe opposing teams should crumble against the Mighty (Shitey) Reds
7) Nottingham Forest
(like Leeds, live in the past on their Clough days and the European Cup wins and consider they are a BIG club :-D)
8) Derby County
(a little club who really should stay in the Chumpionship - fans are arrogant and deluded)
9) Dingles
(not to bothered about the Dingles. They are a irrelevance but would like to see us thrashing Wo1ve5 in the BCD again) They don't even speak the Queens English - only Dinglese
10) Everyone Utd
(all the other clubs in all the leagues because they aren't Baggies and aren't based at The Hawthorns)

Whilst on holiday in Wales before Citeh had money I was introduced to a Welsh Citeh fan in the local pub. He was the most obnoxious disillusioned person I have ever met. Now they have money he is even worse. say no more DD
