Well I live in Shipley now, but work in Leeds - never hated Leeds as a city
as such, just the usual why do they get more attention/better facilities etc
than my City stuff.
Yes I do seperate the Sports & have never 'hated' the Rhinos or City in the
same way as I do Man Utd & St Helens - & would want them to win (if it
didn't hurt Leeds or the Bulls of course)
So yep I sidestep it & just tell them that I like that sport too much to
support City/Rhinos.
Leeds RL are usually disliked because they are/have been perceived as having
lots of money & trying to buy the title - but they could always be relied on
to cock it up (not anymore unfortunately).
Anderson is a bit of a dick - but is still better than the previous coach

Interesting stuff from everyone, thanks for the replies. The logical next
question I guess is, given that as far a I'm aware and from what I've
seen, Bulls fans generally hate The Whinos with a passion (ala Us and Man
Utd), do you hate the Rhinos? I think most Bulls fans hate Leeds, the old
geographical rivallry and obviously Bantams fans hate us for that exact
reason and for sporting reasons too. OR when the subject comes up do you
prefer to step out of that one and merely dislike the Rhinos? This is the
bit I'd be interested in, given that the deep rooted 'hate' factor
(Although personally I think it's far too stong a word to use in sport ...
except where Gary Neville is concerned of course ;-)) is generally
Bradford V Leeds, you cross the camps sports wise and therefore must
surely seperate that factor out and now have it purely on a per sport
basis?
Cheers
