Used to love watching Best Charlton and Law when I were a nipper, and enjoy watching de Bruyne and Silva now. Not teams, just brilliant players.

[Football] Who is your favourite “Big Six” team?
- Thread starter Me and my Monkey
- Start date
Can't stand City or Chelsea for the financial inflation they caused, especially the former who are essentially just a PR front to cover up human rights abuses at home.
Rest not massively fussed. I know a few fans of the various big clubs and the Man Utd ones are by far the most amiable and least "up themselves".

The "big six" are a complete irrelevance, unless we're in the position of needing them to dry-hump some of the teams around us. How can I have a "favourite", when there's only 1 team out of the 92 that I give a shit about ? I've actually found it WEIRD this season watching the likes of Man U and Liverpool against the dreck who are propping us up, and hoping they do them over.
Just like every other club outside of BHA, I only have varying levels of dislike, disdain or indifference to everyone else. I admit to having a slight soft spot for Plymouth, but its still 75% indifference. I can go months forgetting that they exist.
A "favourite" top 6 team ?? Do behave.

Well, obviously them. Goes without saying, Reg. But apart from them ?
Personal experiences. I've always found both ManUre and Chelski fans the most arrogant, not just your archetypal bad losers but also bad winners, being quite vindictive in victory. Horrible to work with, and despite success for their adopted clubs, surprisingly hateful toward a stack of other clubs and people.

With a thread like this appearing on NSC I’m beginning to hope for relegation.
The club's Arsenal plastics would be gutted with that.

All of the top 6 clubs represent EVERYTHING that is wrong with modern football - I cannot wait for them all to f*ck off to some european super league and leave domestic, English football for good.
That said, as a Manc for the first 20 years of my life I did visit Maine Rd regularly... but the club I supported back then has long since disappeared.

Exactly this. I don't understand this, 'I support my club, so I must by definition hate the other 91' attitude. I don't support any of them them, but I still like some more than others.
I'd ask those who have this one club only and hate all the others view to think back, if they are old enough, to the days when the FA Cup final mattered and was the only football on TV.
Did you not pick a team for the day on Cup Final day and cheer for them to win the Cup? Really? Just about everybody else did, then!

I wanted the smaller team to win. Never the ‘big six.’ So for instance I wanted Southampton to beat Man Utd and Man Utd to beat Liverpool. That lasted for 90 minutes.
Hope that helps.

I'm talking about before we had the big six! Occasionally we had a 2nd. division vs. 1st. division clash, but often the Cup Final was between two teams of roughly equal status. It still is, I suppose - usually between two of the big six!
Hope that helps.

You beat me to it. I edited my post above. There is a huge difference between hoping one team beats another on a given day and actually liking another team.

Can't stand any of the clubs and fans.
I enjoy seeing some of the big stars - KDB, Aguero, Salah and Hazard - when they are brilliant.

It would have been whichever club my elder brother WASN'T supporting...
I really don't get why you think those of us old enough to recall an important FA cup (as opposed to the 'Reserves Cup' we have now) would somehow harbour any sentimentality for teams supported for just 90 mins, decades ago and, in my case, only supported out of spite.
