Which clubs around the world do you think are special or just cult?(could be because of their location, fans, poltics, history, shirts, stadium etc.)
St. Pauli is obvious with their left-wing politics and location(Reeperbahn.)
Atheltic Bilbao because of their all Basque policy.
Millwall because of their bad reputation in UK.
Palermo because of their pink shirts.

Schalke? Probably the last true Kutten-Stronghold. Or Livorno, hardcore communists.

Union Berlin.
From fans helping their club to renovate the stadium, to public viewing on couches and the famous X-mas singing in the stadium.
Everythung is cult about that club.

Good clean hearted clubs like Lazio, too. Good thing their neighbors, Roma, are much more progressive.

Livorno, St Pauli, Olympic Marsella for their famous left winning tendencies.
Lazio, Hellas Verona, Roma for right wing tendencies.
Real Madrid for being associated with Franco dictatorship.
Athletic Bilbao for being team with only basque people being allowed to play.
Millwall and West Ham in England for their well known hooligan history.
Celtic and Rangers for their huge rivalry that goes beyond football but also to ethnic and religious background.
Im sure there are many more, especially in Greece, Turkey, Poland with huge fanbases that are known for being violent and loyal.
And i cant remember the two teams from Serbia and Croatia that pretty much started a war.

You can say Rayo Vallecano. Being in the shadows of Real Madrid and Athletico Madrid and their antifascism stands.

No. Only their former keeper Tomislav Piplica is cult.

That's just general northern sentiment. From Liverpool to Leeds, Derby to Durham.

Anyone worth anything supports AFC Wimbledon, I guess you could call that a cult following.
