The teams I hate the most are the ones which make my shoulders and face slump whilst letting out an audible 'ugh' when thinking about them I tend to react to other clubs based on their fans that Ive met. Hated Southampton for a while after meeting 2xfather and sons who were just fucking horrible people. Then they became a meh club after meeting some cracking Saints fans the day our game was called off about an hour before ko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which would be Leeds, Arsenal and West Ham. Now the Arsenal supporter moved to Durham and is dating a Geordie lass so I cut him some slack. Plus he's a class guy and former military man. He really likes the city of Newcastle to boot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im a Yinzer due to accidentally stumbling a radio broadcast (AFRTS) of Steelers/Packers game about 1980, Steelers getting beat support the underdog and all that. If I'd tuned in a couple of minutes later I'd be a cheesehead. Similarly I stopped watching the NFL, just had a quick glance at the scores until about 10yrs ago Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A big chunk of their fanbase wouldn't even have been alive then, or certainly not old enough to have any influence. Always found tarring entire fanbases a bit weird, unless they're mackems.

alexf Posted July 9, 2025 Share Posted July 9, 2025 Forest fan I know said this... "He hits 1 out of 5 balls well, rest go out for a throw, but is absolutely rapid so gets a lot of chances" Suppose you won't see that in highlight reels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it has absolutley nothing to do with the fact that they represent the two cities in the UK where inbreeding and beastiality is common practice. Total coincidence! Does it have something to do with our Ipswich connections? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
