i agree iain, i say i don't like quins and wasps, but its not a true hate. i think i agree with you totally.

Only Wasps really and that's only really been out of jealousy of their recent success and the likes of Dayglo. No other teams, not even Newcastle with Rob Andrew.

Wasps... The simple reason is the players... Worsley is a total ****** (fill in as you like), Dayglo also. etc etc. It's got nothing to do with them winning stuff without deserving it... ;)

I've got nothing against the Gloucester players. In actual fact, I respect them. I have had problems in the past with the supporters though. For example they have often just booed Tigers subs training as they run by. That's just not rugby. No offence SilensFatuus. I'm sure you're a top bloke ;)

I'm not sure Saints is a rivelry any more though. We always win ;) (Only kidding Jess!!)

Fully agree with your comments on Wasps, Pellsey. Worsley and Voyce are not everyone's cup of tea, in fact far from it. But I think the biggest reason for many's loathing of Wasps is Dayglo. I shouted out a few words at home when we played them at WR in April.

Sorry to hear about your problems with certain Gloucester fans. You're by no means the first one to say that. I think the bad feeling stems particularly from the Shed. It is not nice for our subs to be booed training. BTW, Silens Fatuus is not a bloke but is a lady. That's why I call her Jen!

Many apologies Silens Fatuus. :oops: :oops: :oops: I'm sure you're a lovely lady ;)

The Gloucester thing stems from a match played in Watford in the Heineken Cup a good while ago, probably about 1999. However, every actual real Gloucester fan I've ever met has been nice and there has been decent banter. I just hate bad sportsmanship.

Whenever I see Dayglo now, I just think of Johnno's last game for the Tigers and the way he pranced around as if to say he was better than Johnno. HA HA. Idiot.

this is intresting because look at the round-ball premiership most supporters there just despise everyone else, and the footie fans even boo legends of there club just because they've left them. ( they seem to forget they've been superb for them down the years). ! thank god for Rugby ! :D :D :D

Footie fans can be discerning. Derby County are very honoured to be hated by Forest and vice verse. It bugs Leicester City no end that neither set of fans give two hoots about them.

Back on thread. WASPS.

And I'm afraid it's entirely for the reasons that Iain gave. They're ever so slightly too good for my liking.

There is no real reason for it, but I don't like Wasps. When they started winning things I really admired them and the way they went about it. But after a while they just started to really grate me.

I don't like Dayglo (Obviously), but I don't actually think that that is the reason, my dislike of him and my dislike of the club are entirely seperate

I was so happy when Leeds Tykes went down, should have gone down years ago. Reason, i have to live with thier fans.

I can't stand Sarries, not really sure why, Chavs i think.

And i hate Dayglo (only in recent years though) & Joe Worsley is the biggest Tw** in the world! FACT!

London Irish, for exactly the reasons Moody puts in his book. When I read it I whole heartedly concurred.

They make no new talent, have a team full of wandering rugby nomads and give nothing to English National Rugby

ARE YOU LOT ALL TOO YOUNG!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

WHY ITS BATH BATH BATH BATH BATH BATH BATH BATH and when they're not playing BATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll happily have banter with all the the supporters from other clubs but if there is any team i never never never want to lose to its our auld enemy :evil:

Worst experience with a fan was London Irish with what was clearly a soccer fan behaving as a soccer fan. Clearly embarassing for the other London Irish fans around him though.

Side I dislike most is Sarries - always seems to be particularly dirty game. Never a fan of Rod Kafer either. One of the few away grounds I never want to go to.

Gloucs's big black mark was hiring a certain person who thumped Ronan O'Gara n times and should have been banned for life. No probs with fans although the shed seems to think everybody else but them is cheating unlike our two eyed supporters.

I will have to defend the shed and Glaws honour! Contrary to popular belief, most of thr the shed is not filled with gloucester people, they're from the Forest :P
they don't just boo opposition players, we do our own as well :oops: and its all meant in good nature!

Thats okay Pellsey, bit of an ambigious name! And yeas I am :P
