| Nope, not having it. I advocate the exact opposite of this (frankly offensive) post. Unlike other sports football is tribal and just like all competitive sports requires aggression and passion to win. bollox to the ridiculous "medals for participation" and "let's all be friends" culture you're trying to promote. We're going to smash the scum 7-0 on Saturday and they're going to cry themselves to sleep. Good.

| Not really worthy of hatred I simply despise. I did, however, contribute to the fund to stop them dropping off the perch back in the day. I would hate to lose the clarity of having a definitive club to loath

| I don't do the 'Brighton' thing because they aren't a local club.....so for me it's a bit of a manufactured rivalry. Having said that....I view the 'hate' word as absurd....Indeed, I've rarely seen it appropriately used nowadays....It's become an overtly political term. Tribalism is there as apart of football.....No one is forced to partake. As long as no one's bashing you over the head let people enjoy their football how they want to enjoy it.
