I think this is where you're claim falls down. Cant be arsed putting teams in to different tiers myself but you're drawing on your own experiences in a part of a country that alot of others haven't grown up in so will have different experiences of clubs and fans etc and deciding we should all feel the same. The last bit of your 2nd quote is frankly ridiculous, you can be allowed to detest two things on different scales, it's pretty moronic to think otherwise.
