I have an irrational dislike for Brighton. I guess it originated for a good reason due to the fact they seemed to hold an over-the-top grudge and dislike of us for over the groundshare some years back; I in turn have held a grudge since, which has been accenuated that my sister-in-law and her boys are Brighton fans and constantly full of it in recent times. Plus they have a bit of an air of happy clappiness. Funnily enough, for a similar reason, I also have a dislike of their rivals, Crystal Palace, ever since they introduced, overly orchestrated cringeowrthy fake ultras.
I also have a dislike of West Ham, which a lot of people do, but mine is slightly stronger and a bit irrationally OTT. I think it just comes from being brought up in Medway and knowing quite a few West Ham "fans" - a lot of whom have no links to East London, but seem to see their support for West Ham as a wide-boy badge of honour. For example, they seem to act like Danny Dyer when talking about football and call West Ham, "West 'am" or "the 'ammers", when they usally pronounce their "hs". I also work with quite a lot of Essex boys of a similar ilk as the Medway fake wideboy Mockneys.
