My cousin who was born in Huntingdon to two Leicester fans became a Forest fan too.

All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small.

Hope this gets a few airings on the day. Seems to be the old one about them that we sing the least of now.

Magic of the FA Cup: minnows like Nottingham Forest getting drawn against the big teams.

You wouldn't want to admit to being born in Grottingham would you?

[Kinowe Soorie]

This is the one for me. The one that gets your blood pumping. We have to beat them!

Was born in notts. Not sure how long he lived there tho.

 

Michael Owen, legendary Welsh striker, is "from" Flintshire, Wales. Where he was raised, in Wales. He was born in Chester, England, simply because that's where the nearest hospital was. Doesn't make him particularly English or "from" Chester.

 

Unless I'm greatly mistaken, there aren't a lot of hospitals in Shepshed. Unless he was home birthed he probably was born in Nottingham, doesn't mean he spent more than a day or two there. 

 

KDH is as much a "Nottingham lad" as Michael Owen is an English one. Which, again, he isn't.

I’ve not been able to put my finger on why I’ve lost a bit of interest in football over the years. It coincided with losing my Dad and PL survival/winning the thing, and I’ve always put it down to that.

 

But I’m starting to think it might be down to the lack of local derbies since being promoted. I’m buzzing for this in a much different way to say the Cup Final or any PL game we’ve had in years. (And I’m not even guaranteed a ticket) In fact, the last time I was this buzzing was the Derby Friday night Cup game in ‘17

 

We need some PL derbies, badly.

[Saxondale]

I frankly don’t care if those tinpot clowns hate us or not. I will always absolute loathe them.

Definitely!

 

Forest are *the* enemy, more bothered about Villa and Spurs than Derby and Cov

I want to thank Forest for making it so easy to despise them.

 

Just hearing “the world famous City Ground” over the tannoy without a hint of irony is so mind-boggingly laughable it’s infuriating

Exactly this. If his mum had required specialist care during childbirth and went down to Addenbrookes Hospital, it wouldn’t make KDH a ‘Cambridge lad’

Harvey Barnes was born in Burnley. He's still a Leicester lad. Raised in Countesthorpe iirc? His dad, also "a Leicester lad", was just doing community service (playing for Burnley) up North at the time.

They sing about us. They know it's a big game. OK maybe not their main rival but you aren't strictly stuck to having one rival. It's the same way Villa fans are still up for playing Wolves / West Brom etc... when it's been eight years there's a significance.

 

They'll pretend otherwise to cover their own arses if they don't but they'd absolutely love to beat us.

I knew someone who got rushed to be born at Coventry hospital rather than Leicester for some reason, he lives here and they genuinely picked supporting them over us for that reason. Fantastic decision that, clown.

"It's Forest and Derby, you're all on your own."

 

Yep. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shame that.

It’s all weird when you go past Loughborough then villages alll think they’re from Nottingham 

[Guest Manini]

Leicester and Nottingham are the two cities you instantly think of when you think of the East Midlands, so this isn’t just about football is it. It’s arguably the two most historic cities in the region battling it out for bragging rights. This is a derby and a rivalry bigger than just football and always will be and I won’t have anybody tell me otherwise.

I met a lad up in Catterick on an exercise once. We’re heading to the same regiment that recruits nationally. Asked him where he was from and said ‘Near Nottingham’ 

 

Asked whereabouts exactly and he said ‘Loughborough’
