Which opponents do we like?

spurs9 · Apr 20, 2017

Preston NE - I know a few PNE fans (I'm originally a Northerner) and everyone I have met likes us. I think the fact that we copied their kit helps.

Fulham - my uncle's & cousin's support them and they used to come and stay with us and take me to away games v Northern teams.

Bournemouth - my half brother is from there (he's not a footy fan though).

Swansea - They play good footy.

Hull - due to the ex spurs connection.

Morecambe - my home town team.

Don't mind sunderland tbh. Mainly because they're that shit that I've felt sorry for them these last few yeard

And the fact they helped Danny Rose become the player he is today,one of the best loans we have ever done.

Everton for me Do not mind their fans at all unlike the other lot,also have a soft spot for Ipswich and Watford both teams I have been to many matches over the years because of Family and friends.

I don't 'like' anyone bar Spurs really. Especially not in the Premier League. There are plenty of teams in the EPL I'm indifferent towards, and Everton are one of them, but I wouldn't go so far as saying I like any of them because I can guarantee that for the 180 minutes we're playing them each season I hate them and want them to implode. For the most part those teams I'm indifferent towards (eg Swansea, Bournemouth, Middlesbrough) don't stir any great dislike within me as they're largely irrelevant to Spurs, so its hardly a compliment!

I keep track of a few non-EPL teams due to either my location (Northampton Town) or family supporting them (Ipswich Town) but when Ipswich were in the EPL I was hoping they would get dicked every week as I didn't want them overshadowing my beloved Spurs.

So in summary, nobody.

Swansea. Great story of how the club nearly dropped out of the league altogether and was saved by their fans. Then they climbed the whole league system playing proper football.

It annoys me that some foolish American owners might now have spoiled it all by appointing Bob Bradley earlier this season. Hopefully they stay up though.

I like Crystal Palace. Been to loads of their games and was so chuffed when they got promoted. I know a few fans and they are all decent

archiewasking · Apr 20, 2017

Brighton, Peterborough - where I live - always quite liked Orient, QPR, Fulham. I also look out for Middlesbrough's results, due to a good mate on Stronghold Kingdoms who lives and breathes Boro.

Love Eynesbury Rovers, from St Neots in Cambridgeshire, where I grew mostly up. And of course loathe and despise both St Neots Town and St Neots Saints. I've got a Gooner mate who is sick of them and goes regularly to see Dulwich Hamlet. They play in a brilliant blue and pink kit. I'm going down next season to a game with him for pie and mash and guiness. Should be almost as awesome as taking my youngest to see Eynesbury win 2-0 at Peterborough Sports. Proper football, proper football clubs.

I don't hate Everton btw, but can't get past the season when we looked nailed on for the title and we imploded while they went on to win it. Was on the terraces at the Lane when they they beat us 2-1 right near the end.

I can't help but "not mind" Man Utd, only due to the fact that up until a few years ago, my main interest from March onward was them winning all their games to prevent Arsenal from winning the League. And that's kind of remained in me and I can't help but, not "like" them, but not mind them.

Apart from them there's not any opponents I like, merely opponents I don't dislike and/or hate. I hate Arsenal, dislike Chelsea and West Ham. Find it hilarious when Liverpool fail because they think they have some sort of god-given right to success. Plus scousers are generally intolerable.

Apart from them lot, I don't mind everyone else.

Goldman · Apr 20, 2017

I quite like Fulham. Probably just because of a lot of good away days there.

Shanks · Apr 20, 2017

Clubs I like that are not Spurs..

Reading FC - my son plays for their academy.

Real Madrid - well as a none english team, me and the boy watch Madrid games, mostly because of Modric and Bale.

Farnborough Town - my hometown team.

Premier Team, only Man United - Never really minded them, prefer them over the rest of the 'Sky four'..

Me and the lad also watch Fulham, as our family friend is the partner to a lad in the team.

degoose · Apr 20, 2017

i've had a soft spot for swansea over the years they have been in the premier league and playing slick football. Quite gutted how they have gradually declined and the possession football disappeared and could well be relegated.

Chris Flynn · Apr 20, 2017

Teams I like a bit are Palace as I grew up around the area as a kid, and Brighton as I live there now and have done since I was 10. Used to go to a few games at the Goldstone Ground. But in reality my liking for both of them is 'meh' compared to Spurs. Really happy for Brighton getting promoted and hope Palace stay up but when we play them, my quite liking them turns to dislike and a hope we smash them 100 - 0.

Oh actually quite like Fulham purely for the reason that I took them from the 3rd division to champions of Europe on Premier Manager on the SEGA megadrive when I was about 13. And its always stuck with me

UncleBuck · Apr 20, 2017

Watford, born next door to the ground and then spent the next 28 years living there, it's amazing how many Spurs supporters live there.
Bournemouth for all the holidays I had as a kid at Rockley Park.
Swansea, where my dads family originated.

kieron91 · Apr 20, 2017

Ipswich as they are my hometown team.

Hull due to the ex Spurs there and family who live there.

Anyone else who beats the gooners, Chelsea, West Ham and Liverpool.

Barnet, because my old man played there a bit back in the day.

mpickard2087 · Apr 20, 2017

Stevenage are local to me. I went to a lot of their games as a teenager with mates, a right laugh when they were non-league, and I was in their youth system also so always hope they do well. Luton are also local and so hope they do well too. Got taken to a lot of Cambridge and Rushden & Diamonds (RIP - though they have a phoenix team) as a kid also so look out for their results.

Bristol City and Bristol Rovers after my time at uni.

How anyone can like Everton is beyond me, they're scouse for starters.

riggi · Apr 20, 2017

Fuck me there's a lot of love for Brighton.

West Ham.

You may all laugh but if it wasn't for their fans obsession with us, I wouldn't have a problem with them.

Grey Fox · Apr 20, 2017

I have one for each league including Scottish prem,

Burnley, just a great family club
Fulham, same always great away days
AFC Wimbledon, because of their rise back to the league
Portsmouth, really great fan base
Dagenham & Redbridge, My dad used to play for Dagenham
Maidenhead, Local team that needs one more point to be promoted to the conference
Ross County, My son is called Ross and bored with Celtic and Rangers.

Of course I do need to review every season due to promotion and relegation issues

TaoistMonkey · Apr 20, 2017

Bournemouth are ok probably because they are pretty Harmless. I think we will get on well with Brighton and maybe send a few loanees their way to help them out in the prem.

Everlasting Seconds · Apr 20, 2017

There is absolutely no other English team I could give a toss about.

A now well run club, their fans have been dragged through the shit over the last few years, and managed by a yid...whats not to like?
Brighton's also a cracking night out, many fond memories of the place...although if they turn us over next season they can rot in hell for all i care

Also what is it with everyone thinking we'll be sending our players there on loan?
We hardly ever do that with players Poch wants in his plans.(prem clubs that is)
