    Sevco. Hanging around in the Scottish Third division like a teenager at a kids party.

    Real Madrid, Dynamo Moscow, Rangers.

    All because of politics they were/are part of.

    Charlton will be added to this list if the fans keep booing players at home games.

    I'm not for or against Celtic but, you got something against Irish people?
    Before you ask, i'm english, but i'm not quite sure how to read into that.

    That's fine to not like a certain club. I hate Millwall and Palace, and some of their fans.
    If he said he didn't like them "because of their fans", that would be fine, because they have fans from different backgrounds all over the world.
    But to not like them because of their Irish fans, It kind of implies that he has something against Irish people in particular, so I found the comment a bit insulting towards Irish people.
    Just saying.

    Charlton but I'm stuck with it for life and love the pain

    Poor away support

    Limited song vocabulary

    Too many fans who "laugh" at other clubs who are in a far superior position to us ... Weirdos

    Too many fans who think they're superior to other fans cos they support a not so fashionable team and that they're the only club in the world to have had trials and tribulations

    They didnt hand around too long in fairness!

    My list;
    Celtic (not because of their Irish fans)
    Palace
    Millwall
    Any team from Yorkshire/Lancashire that we had to visit when in L1 (Rochdale/Oldham etc etc)

    I think he's talking about Celtics Scottish fans that act like plastic Irish. I don't get that.

    They're proud of their ancestry, as well as political and religious issues. Though I believe politics and religion have no place in football at all and should be kept out. It causes too much trouble.

    Those same political views are probably why he hates their 'irish' fans. Just a thought

    I would love to see Charlton buy the title.

    Every club in the last forty years has bought the title, it's just how they come by that money that changes...

    I meant Scottish League One, which they are in fairness not going to be staying in too long. Particularly if some of those "trialists" sign up.

    Colchester is a great shout. No home atmosphere or identity whatsoever and never likely to achieve much or have any real excitement.

    They don't even have that endearing 'little club' feel about them that you get with a lot of the sides at their level.

    At this current moment in time the teams I pity and think "least I don't support them" has to be Pompey & Coventry.

    My Dad supports Col U, was a lot better atmosphere wise in the Layer Road days, classic case of a new ground sapping the atmosphere out of a matchday. At Layer Road the "Barside" terrace would be rocking with a few hundred of their hardcore noisy fans, difficult to recreate that at a new stadium.

    It doesnt help that they have Ipswich Town on their doorstep, who they view in a similar vein as Gillingham fans view us. In addition to the hordes of migrated East Londoners living in Colchester who have no interest in catching a game at their local club, but instead continue to support West Ham from afar...

    Odd to single them out though, been to a few small clubs on my travels with Charlton, and many of them (especially the ones with new grounds) fail to create an atmosphere....

    MK D**s (made-up club)
    Sunderland (disgrace of a manager)
    Liverpool (too many reasons to put here).
