No, we just hate them. There's a difference between a local team who you hate and a local rival. The main difference being they are a pub team with no fans and are mainly hated for their manager/owner alone. If pace left they'd go back to obscurity and we wouldnt mind them all that much.

Having said that, watch alty take 400-500 their this season and laugh at them all!

Has to be the green and white slime as they were always the main rivals in the formative years of the APL (Macc were irrelevant until much later and have become irrelevant again).

We all p*ss in a green and white pot

As others have said, it's and age thing.....
