In response to Dutchforest's article about the teams we hate. Just thought, what about the teams / fans that we get on with?
I've noticed when speaking to other club fans from all over the English League (bar the obvious exceptions!) and I explain I'm a Forest fan, they often respond with, "Always liked Forest, would be great to see them in the Premier League again." Now I don't know if they're just being polite, but I get the impression we're quite respected. Or maybe it's because I never go to Derby.
But which teams and respective fans do you / we get on with? And who gets on with us? Just a thought...
...and something slightly different

When I were a lad, Forest weren't in the sticker books so I had to make do with one of the sides that were.
As a fan of blue, it was a toss up between Everton and Chelsea, at least it was until I found out Everton were known as the toffees .
So I supported Chelsea for a few years. Then one day I heard some Russian bloke had taken over; I didn't like the sound of that, what if he kidnapped me like he always did James Bond. So being the ripe old age of 12 I decided to jump ship. Thankfully by then I was old enough to venture down semi-regularly to the world famous City Ground.
I don't know what happened to that Russian guy; I presume it involved a shark, it normally does.

Yeovil Town.
I was there when we got promoted to the Championship and their fans were fantastic.
They stayed behind and applauded the reserve squad who won the championship, then applauded our team and Colin Calderwood.
Also, when we did our usual 'Stand up for Brian Clough' chant, their fans stood up and applauded for Sir Brian too.
Upmost respect to their fans and shall always have a spot for their club after that

Notts County..my dad took me to Meadow Lane from the age of three and even though I finished up crossing the river when I got older I still go to watch the Pies now and then when Forest are away.
Liverpool..Great fans I love their wit and sense of humour and Saurez is a pleasure to watch..great player

Fulchester United.
I remember when they signed Brown Fox, thinking I shall need a full box of Kleenex belly wipes when I watch them again!
