Which eL team do you dislike (hate) most? And why?

1st Post and its a negative one!

Longford for me, sorry nothing against the fans - reasons -

(1) Derry's bogey team. :mad:
(2) Too negative - have/had got players that could tear teams apart.
(3) Manager who learned his trade at Shelbourne - :D enough said.
(4) However, they really annoyed me at the start of the season when they refused to play their away match with Derry without their 'under 21 star'- Stephen Paisley! Imagine the scene - the league is under way, we had got off to a good start - Derry yet to play home match - Good Friday (most bars closed) - guaranteed 4,000 to turn up - and then they decide that Mr Paisley is indespensible!

Good enough that we scored in the last minute to beat them in the rearranged game.

Respect to Cork and Waterford who just got on with it by playing without Doyle and Murphy respectively.

thought i could only pick one team ? ;)

ps - for what its worth derry are the only other team after pats i kinda like

Strange that Sligo fans don't like us, we've always had a soft spot for them due to the Milltown protest. Suppose it's down to the "Rovers" thing. Doesn't bother me, I just find it bizarre that they refer to themselves as Rovers and not Sligo. Still, imitation as flattery and all that.

For me, I suppose it would have to be Bohs. The derby isn't as fun as it used to be (too much security / hassle) but it's still the only one that gets the blood going that way.

I have no opinion whatsoever on Shels' fans, although the few I've met I've always found to be very pleasant. Nutsy's a Hoop so he's grand, but the rest of their management / officials are utter sewage. I find them embarrassing more than anything else. And, despite what Shels fans say, I still think Ollie is leading you for a massive, massive fall.

I don't like Longford either, just because it's a rubbish club in a rubbish town with rubbish security. Culchie Bohs - says it all.

Aside from that I don't have any problems. Derry & Harps I like and I wouldn't have any feelings on any of the others. I used to really hate Pats but I've since realised that what I actually hated were the little knackers who went to their games when the going was good but don't seem to appear anymore.
Cork fans used to annoy me but they seem to have calmed down over the last season or so. Plus, I think the Cork team is quality and I'm delighted they're stopping Shels get the 3-in-a-row.

I'm suprised with UCD getting 0 votes

Everyone likes us. :D

[SIZE=1]Watch as the votes rack up now![/SIZE]

We may not be many people's favourites, but what could we do to attract someone's hatred more than any other club when you think about it?

God i love Limerick, yee make it so simple and true but i wouldnt say i hate Galway, to be honest NOBODY GIVES A FLYIN FU[K ABOUT YEE. Too small to be cared about or hated. Also ill take that as either a typo for Hippies or snobs, either way it works for Galway. And Passive ive had a vey, very long argument before with yee about the Rovers name and im not going to have another one. If ya ever venture out of the Pale and into the Republic you might realise that there other teams outside West Britain. And we have always hated yee, i guess its the D4 thing, complete opposite to sligo, uppercrust d!cks. Funny how things change. Also the sit down at Milltown was the only truce, i'll suggest you read 'Only One Red Army', it will enlighten you alot. Please read it so i dont have to explain to you again.

Shels; for being everything I hate about football, for Ollie Byrne, for 2002, for Crawley's rascism, for Byrne's nose, for Hawkins, for Hoolahan's whinging, for bringing everything to court, for their fans singing "always look on the southside for ****", for their complete lack of geographical/historical knowledge, for the most annoying set of kids ever (I'll stop now but I could go on, believe me...)

Rovers; For their fans ubelievably high notions about themselves and utter denial of the truth,

Cork; For the internet fans

Bohs; for their constant whining and their obsession with Rovers

Dundalk; for having the most rascist fans in Ireland.

UCD; For not being able to beat them in Belfield

Also hate whoever beats us that week...

Thanks for that generalisation there... :rolleyes: There are obviously no racist St Pat's fans.

That's not a generalisation. I said Dundalk had the most rascist fans in Ireland in the sense they have more fans who are rascist than any other club

How can you tell who is a racist? You don't have to be draped in a swastika doing nazi salutes to be a racist. It may just be that at our games the racists make it more obvious that they are than at other clubs. And I am sure that these 'racists' are drug filled, under educated teenagers that just shout abuse for the sake of it. Im sure you get guys in their 40's who are just as racist but may keep it to themselves.

I have read it and I enjoyed it (thankfully Eamon Sweeney has a better command of the English language than you, sorry, "ye").

I'll agree to never enter this debate with you again, but I have one final thing to say: 15 leagues and 24 cups on one hand; ****e club from the west of Ireland on the other...

In Order

1. Shamrock Rovers
2. Bohs
3. Cork City
4. St. Pat’s
5. Dundalk

The three Dublin clubs are obvious choices. I think all the games involving the big four in Dublin are great simply because we all hate each other so much!

Cork would probably have been in my top 3 favourite EL teams until the last couple of years but as EnDai said…

“I've never had a thing against Cork until I started frequenting forums, by Christ what’s that about?”

There are some intelligent Cork* posters here, but they definitely seem to have the biggest number or moronic, paranoid, bitter, fickle, OTT fans on here.

You can attack me in return Cork fans but it will mean nothing. After all, I’m a Shels fan, and therefore don’t exist.

*Still hope you do well in Europe lads!

dundalk cos they play on Thursday nights and they have grumpy old fans when they come to our place.

In my experience of rascist abuse at grounds, yeah.

bohs and rovers, because they're two places where i have frequently heard racist chants, and that just disgusts me.

incidentally, my dislike is probably also fuelled by the number of close defeats we've had to bohs over the last few years, and that when i started following bray the only other fan in my class in school was a rovers girl!

Ok ill agree ta never enter this debate but one point,
We get same attendances as yee and we're from a town of 20000 and your from one thats 1.2 million :confused: yee have won the league 15 times, we have won it twice and yee still get same attendances :confused: and yee think your better than us, yee really are pathetic and that stab at my English was sad, just cause i dont speak the Queens English like yourselves is not a valid point. Now you see what has happened by making that little bitch swipe in your post.

Shamrock Rovers because (adopt whiny shop-steward Dublin accent) "Where would de League of Ireland be without Shamrock Rowvers".

Dundalk. Feel quite bad about saying it cos I know a few great Dundalk fans but overall I'm going to join the prevailing Limerick trend and go with the Oriel Park boys (well United and Century Holmes Parks this year I suppose). As for why...

1) The Thursday night thing really, really annoys me. I think every other club in the division should switch their two games against Dundalk to Thursday and they wouldn't be long falling into line. I just don't understand the logic behind it. I suspect that it's a cynical ploy to increase the chance that the opposition players might not get off work?

2) An element of their travelling support leave any guise of civilisation in Louth when they visit. They snarl and bicker with each other, their players, the officials (and I hope people appreciate the irony of me being able to chastise anybody for lambasting officials, in my youth... :o)

3) The guy who's a dead ringer for Jimmy Five Bellies... complete excuse for a human.

4) Alan Murphy... can't justify this, just his appearance sets me on edge.

I'm gonna stop now before I appear too hate-filled. I don't mind Dundalk really I suppose.

Oh I thought of another reason....

5) I've always had a soft spot for Drogheda (lovely support and a nice town too) so that's probably rubbed off on me. In fact it was I who started the 'If you hate Dundalk clap your hands' chant in United Park this year. When our hosts reacted poorly we switched to 'You're supposed to hate Dundalk' Made me :D anyway!

And funniest of all for me is Cobh fan terry9 voting for Cobh Ramblers as his least favourite team. There's no shortage of jokes in there but I'm going to leave that to others! :D
