I'm from East London and can see how Chelsea are hated more / equally by those of us who don't have that regular abuse from Mancs. My family are Arsenal / West Ham, most of my mates growing up were Arsenal / Spurs / West Ham. So hating Chelsea is like a way of life, in the same way having butter on your toast is. Chelsea fans also tended to be racist bigots too, which just added to their allure.
I do hate the Mancs just as much, that doesn't lessen the hatred of Man U it just raises up the hatred of Chelsea.
One thing that does grate on me, which may be irrational, is when people call Chelsea fans Cockney ******s. Or use Cockney as a term of abuse aimed at them. Sarf London isn't where Cockneys are from. Chelsea aren't Cockneys, never were. They are ******s though. Huge, hairy, ****ing ones.
Spot on. The distance from one side of London to the other isn't much less than Liverpool to Manchester, yet imagine the horror if those places were considered the same
