What's the derogatory nickname for your team/supporters?

D'wards said:
I support Palace, and some local teams call Palace fans "Nigels" - which i think is quite good.

What do they call you?

Hmm, or "stripey nigels". Also "Palarse", wittily enough. Brighton are the seaweed, Charlton is clowntown or clowns... also terribly weak imo.

I remember Grimsby being taunted with fish-related chants once... what's it like to smell of fish and so on.

They responded with "we only sing when we're fishing" :cool:

"Crippled Alice" seems to be another popular choice.

Oh, OK, maybe a seaside reference??

I'm not actually sure (despite going to many derbies) what Sw*nd*n call Oxford fans, but I doubt it's very imaginative. They are 'Moonrakers' after all ... :p No doubt Onket or STFC Loyal will be along to help me out** though ... :rolleyes:

**Don't bother if it's just 'scum' fellers ... that's dull ...

Hmmm, yeah, I dunno actually. We call O*ford something to do with them being inbreds normally. :p

As well as being called the Moonrakers, which I have no problem with as 1) it's a good story and 2) not derogatory at all if you believe the other version, we are often called Swindle.
 
Swansea are affectionately known as Jack Bastards.

I prefer our term for Kerdiff, "Dwarves", due to their continual claims of being sleeping giants and bigger than Barcelona.
 
Enfield Town FC.

Known to the Wealdstone miserabilists as Enfield Turncoats, and to the B****t as Enfailed. Not very good, lads. Do try harder.

There's only one F in Enfield... :p

Thrush, perhaps?

Anyway we, Bristol City, are 'The Shit'. Which is nice. :)

Rovers used to be 'rentboys', then they were 'squatters', but now they're just 'sags'.

Derby fans still get the tired old 'sheepshagger' jibes, although that particular insult stopped having the desired effect years ago (in fact, Derby fans are quite happy to reclaim the insult and sing songs like, "2-0, to the sheepshaggers' etc)...

You're called The Rams. You have a ram on your badge. In what way are you not sheepshaggers? We'll call you ramshaggers if you prefer...

Bromley call us HIV Wimbledon, why..???

Oh I see what they did there!

Has Bromley's shithole ground improved since I used to watch Arsenal Ladies there in the mid-90s? I remember the top end used to have loads of stone bits sticking up out of oversized concrete steps, like it was either designed for giants to stand on it or there were once benches but all the bench bits had been pinched in the night for firewood or something.

Could peeps please name their clubs so we can see who's being 'insulted' please?

Cardiff fans still get the tired old 'sheepshagger' jibes, although that particular insult stopped having the desired effect years ago (in fact, Cardiff fans are quite happy to reclaim the insult and sing songs like, "2-0, to the sheepshaggers' etc)...

And Sheep Sheep Sheepshaggers?
Aberdeen the same they have big blow up sheep floating around the away end of various grounds.
 
My best yet is "dirty fenian terrorist tattymunching bogwog alterbhoy shagging bastard"

To which I replied, "thanks for noticing. Now don't you forget it!" :)


That was 'cos I wasn't a rangers fan.
 
"Junkies" Because the area we are based has, well, had, a large proportion of Herion users :mad:

Team supported: St Patricks Athletic

done a lot of work at the rovers ground. Wish all my customers were that good to deal with.
Don't know that much about football but I do know about business and they are a delight to deal with.
Doncaster also has one of the best kebab shops in the world as well as two very nice chinese restaurants.

Nope still a death trap & scene of crowd trouble when ever we play there. There are still the benches rotting behind one of the goals. when we played there last season someone seriously injured their leg after getting it caught under one of the benches during a "surge". Seriously silly thing to do... Best thing about Hayes Lane is the awful faux fountain in the front garden of the house just by the entrance, all lit with purple & green lighting. We all went for a paddle in it last season, owners were not too amused but at least the OB still had a sense of humour..
 
Our Mighty rivals, Port Vale :rolleyes: call us the Lardies. This based on their view that we are all fat pie/oatcake eating bastards! Which I suppose is understandable coming from a bunch of emaciated chavs with Elvis fans for parents !! :D

Away fans sing "Youre only a town full of faggots" when at the Withdean & when we go away the homes fans sing it as well.

Don't forget 'Seaweed' instead of 'Seagulls' invariably chanted by our friends in that shopping centre of a ground up the A23.

I had the best of cup tea I've ever had there. And a fairly nice sausage sandwich.
 
Norwich fans call us Ipswich supporters "binmen", I think its because of a documentary about dustmen and one bloke found an Ipswich Town hat and put it on.........

We call Norwich fans "Budgies", obvious really.......

Oh the wit of us East Anglians eh?

Mark.
