Our rivalry with Chelsea

bedlington mackem · 14th January 2012, 12:13 PM

why do we hate them ?
Do they hate us more ?
does it all stem from the Milk Cup semi final or does it go deeper than that ?

thanks to anyone who has the answer

We don't have a rivalry with Chelsea.

I dont think for one second that either clubs fans would list the others in their top ten football rivals.

I don't like them for any other reason than being arrogant cockney bellends. I don't think they particularly care about us either do they?

I was at Earl's Court Tube Station.
A lot worse than the Milk Cup game.

I can confirm the I hate the bastards.
But wouldn't consider any of it as 'Rivalry'.

ok maybe not "rivals" but there seems to be a clear dislike there.

Other than the Mags, Leeds and Boro ( in that order ) who IYO make up our other top ten tivals ?

Not sure if a rivalry can be one sided. Can guarantee they don't care about us. I don't think they're a big deal to most of us either.

And after the home '92 Cup Game.

Can clearly remember one of there 'top boys' screaming "Stand Chelsea, Facking stand", as he RAN along Roker Baths Road.

Comedy moment

aye but why ?

I can appreciate the other London clubs who generally have all played decent football from the 70s to today....but there is something about Chelsea I just dont like. They do have an arrogance which probably stems from their Cup successes in the early 70s and maybe thats it
