...

I hate that half their fans are prawn sandwich business sorts loads of which are Chinese/Japanese, (Paul Houk will call me racist again now no doubt) and the other half are Londoners.

...

I hate the fact they never go to the games/mention their games all season yet never stfu when they win a trophy.

I hate that they think they have fanatical, fantastic support but when you watch 17/19 home league games on TV the place is always like a graveyard. (I will concede their away support is v good but that is no doubt the 3,000 or so old school hardcore).

I hate all the scummy people on Camel's list.

I hate Alex Ferguson and his moaning and cheating.

...

so?

it's only a game

Don't you think hate is an irrationally strong emotion to ascribe to things which might more reasonably be qualified as mildly irritating?

I'm sensing you're not really into football that much Jon.

I want to play. Will try not to swear.

When i went to the fa cup game last year at Old Trafford (which we won 1-0 fwiw) i saw lots of Asian fans with scarves on that were half Man Utd half Leeds designs. How ridiciolous is that! We have hated each other for 40 years. Its just a business now, more so than any other club.

The only thing i remotely like about them is that the only time i've been to Old Trafford for an away game we did them 1-0 when we were in League One! (duno if i've mentioned that yet)

Love this stuff. Makes me smile

Yes

in Football

Winning a match after being a long way behind, winning a league, winning a trophy
Losing in the final minutes, losing a big points lead, losing in general

but most of what is on most people's hate lists isn't about playing football

and hate is still a bit strong imo

Your argument is very strong and the passion involved in supporting a football club really isn't logical.

Why the hate for Paul Scholes? Someone who doesn't talk to the press, trys very very hard, puts extra time in the training ground and has expressed his want to play for his hometown team (Oldham) before he dies.

Possibly to do with the nasty side to his game where he goes round leaving his foot in constantly, getting an unreal amount of yellow cards in his career then we have to listen to comms saying he just can't tackle.

Emotion and a footbal fan.

Years ago I had a discussion with a Sheff Utd follower, he concluded that as a fan you sign up to misery that is entrenched in the system. You have times of pleasure when you win, come back from behind etc etc but the close season is the time of the real emotion. You look back on the previous season and you have a few short months of extreme pleasure if won that trophy that you craved for the team but there is more likely to be months of misery because you didn't. After all there can only be one ultimate winner and a large number of also ran. Is it not surprising that there manifests a feeling of extreme dislike, bordering on hate, of any other team that made your months of summer a misery.

The list is long and detailed.

Paul Ince.

Norman Whiteside.

Mark Hughes.

Teddy Sheringham.

Roy Keane.

Gary Neville.

Peter Red Nose.

Mark Hughes.

Bryan Robson.

The ridiculous feeling of entitlement of their supporters.

Alex Ferguson's tapping his wristwatch.

But most of all, the 12 minutes of injury time they got in our relegation season which gave Cantona enough time to equalise and ultimately send us down.


Near perfect post........I'd also like to add the name of Brian "miserable face" Mcclair.

God I hate Man Utd almost as much as Derby.....vile!
