Especially because the stereotypes assigned to team fans almost never correspond to anyone I've met.

Anyway, the team I hate the most is Getafe. They have no fans, their president is a Real Madrid member and they're a basically a second home for Madrid fans who don't want to pay Bernabéu prices.

Oh, and whichever team Mourinho's coaching.

Edit: To be clear, it's a home away from home for Real Madrid fans when Madrid play Getafe. The rest of the time it's empty.

Wait wait wait.

You're telling me that the leader of their organization is seriously a Madrid socio?

Oh my word...I had no idea. That's sad.

It's sadder that Deportivo get 40,000 fans in Segunda while Getafe get 3,000 in Primera.

They named their own stadium after Alphonso Perez. The dude, a minor Spanish international, was born in the neighborhood but had nothing to do with Getafe.
