What teams do you LIKE and which do you DISLIKE?

Obviously leaving out the obvious!

Like Holland and dislike Turkey over the past few days. The Dutch are playing football how it should be played and the Turks, well, everything hurts and their body parts are falling off.

like Holland - for real football (Cruyffff and co in the70's redefined football for me) like Romania for always being talented underdogs - Greece...? the jury is out, but if calculated negative play steals the competition from France, Germany, Italy, then count me in. .Spain? perennial under-acievers, so some synergy with GCFC!

Man U - really Hate - all the tuff arogant kids liked 'em
Arsenal - Hate loads - negative image in the 70's

...and the '90's culture which dictates that you have to support a top premiership club even if you don't ever visit the ground ???

Liverpool - some affection from seeing them on tele loads when I was young - and the passion the City has for the team

Chelsea - they beat my Dad's Leeds in the 70 (or thereabouts) cup final, so that was OK ... and any club breaking into the Man U / Arse dictatorship is a move forward... I'd really like to see someone other than those 3 win the Prem next season.

FA Cup Final Pompey Vs Taffs - loads of respect for people who support their local club

Teams with rich Sugar Daddy's pushing them up to levels beyond their supporters - HATE - R&D, K&W, TB, (FGR?)

Teams who graft results out over decades and make minor achievements - R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Lowestoft Town !!!!!

(the normal 300 were swelled to 15000 at Wembley - the town turned out to see their team play on the biggest stage - the people of Gloucester did -and one day again will do the same - or something close to it - and we should welcome every one with open arms)

Teams who rely on the supporters (I have done Stewarding, Car Park, Raffle, Tannoy, Refreshments, Fans Vs Team, ...) ABSOLUTELY LOVE .. that's GCFC !!!

Ipswich Wanderers - genuine fanbase less than 50, but turn out to their own games and to celebrate any success in their county - truly an inspiration to all non-league fans and probably my pick of the best fans anywhere !!!

I'd say hate is a really strong word Doctor and maybe you should try to learn to forgive, like that geezer Paul on the road to Domestos.
