Nah man didnt you hear, hating your rivals is cringe, and the Polish have transcended such petty small mindedness, maybe you need a trip to Krakow for enlightenment
I wish that was the case, huh :-)
Nah, Polish fans also have the same worst of the worst among them, as much as some of the football fans anywhere where football is the main sport. Many many decades ago, my (then) Italian girlfriend grandparents were Lazio supporters and the neighbours across the road where AS Roma supporters. Once when Lazio won the derby the neighbours left a dead stray cat on their doorstep. Ah, football.
But what you do not see much - at least in Poland - is the petty hating of one's own club for not being as good as the also hated competitor club.
The origin of the 'Poznan' move (invented by the Lech supporters) was, when watching from behind one's own goal, to turn one's back in disdain during the opposition team's attack, never when behind the opposition goal, never on one's own team attacking.
