Cov and Forest are the only sides of those lot that genuinely dislike us (Maybe the scousers too now)

 

Derby really aren’t arsed, much less rivalry at their end than Forest 

Yeah I have always thought similar in that Derby really actually do not care about us.

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Nottingham, Derby, Cov and to a less extent Wolves.

 

In the PL Wolves are probably the team I like to beat the most? Some of it is geography, some of it is they seem the other team of a similar size capable of upsetting the apple cart over last few years. They are like our West Midlands twin club in some ways (without the silverware )

[SemperEadem]

For me it's Forest and Cov and no one else. Grew up in Lutterworth.

Derby are more fussed with Stoke, and Leeds (Brian Clough yawnage)

Leeds fans don’t like Derby either to be fair. I’m not sure Leeds fans like anyone, bar the last two or three seasons I wasn’t even convinced they liked Leeds!

Absolutely love Atlético being in there  

[gw_leics772]

Nobody!

Mine used to be cov cos.pf where I live but they are now all but irrelevant.

 

I do, however, love the atmosphere against forest because that's the age old rivalry of most Leicester fans.

 

But being a 90's starter myself, we did have a lot of fun with derby, and mostly came out on top.

 

As for real rivalries, ours have been better because they have been based on league positions and fighting for Europe etc. But as.mentioned, these are transient

I say Coventry purely based on miles away from the Leicester

[Voll Blau]

Buzzing for the weird lads who say "Celtic" to rock up.

[Tuna]

Personally Forest purely because I am from Grantham and it's a very Forest supporting area.

I'd kind of come round to that way of thinking but I can assure you that's not the case after eight years of living there.

Was going to plump for Villarreal, but it seems he's on loan to Mallorca.

I don’t know, I’m sure we fell out for some reason in the 1990s

I find people voting for Spurs as our rivals is just really bizzare.

[Ted Maul]

Anybody else retained an irrational dislike for Plymouth from the Holloway/relegation saga? 😂

[SecretPro]

Forest Green Rovers.

It’s not uncommon for clubs to hold a candle for games against the teams they competed with during their zenith.

I have a (fully irrational) dislike of Harry Kane, and of Mourinho, Lloris, and a whole host of other characters from that club. I find they have a victim mentality bordering on Liverpool’s, a delusion of size and importance that they have neither earned, nor delivered on, and a consequent entitlement and arrogance that makes me look forward to their failure.
 

Given the choice of any team to guarantee we’d take 6 points from, it would be them. So, in the absence of credible Premier League alternatives, they’re my PL ‘rival’. Don’t think it’s that much more bizarre than anyone except Forest, Derby and Cov, none of whom are good enough to be rivals right now…

Going on our very own forum, our biggest rivals .. Ourselves..!!!

We shit on ourselves every week with more Diarrhea and hate more than we dish out to any would be rivals..

Any Rumble tend to be with our under 15yr olds against London & scouser 55+ hrs olds...

 

In those long lost bygone years ( you know those periods that @davieG  Topic & posts old photographs of..)

We use to have a Rival hate of Forest, But loved Notts.county, rival hate of Coventry,loved Northampton, detested Derby, loved Mansfield)

gave Peterborough a wide berth,But ok with Cambridge....A Soft Spot for West.ham & Chelsea,respect for Spurs But pure 100 yrs hate for Arsenal...

 

How The World has changed...the younger generations seem to cynically hate everybody...

Why in One of those hooligan-street-runs...Wolves & Leicester fans were Destined to have a big clash, they turned around the next corner to Face up,then

a rumor spread Derby fans were to be passing through the station...Suddenly with wit & humerous  banter two tribes became one ,walking,laughing together

to give a blackcountry-woolbacks welcome to those peaky-district Derby ram-bos

I don’t think they are our rivals, that’s obviously Northampton Town but the club I dislike the most is Spurs and has been for as long as I can remember really.

It’s too much to go into all the details why but long story short, I know a few Spurs fans well and they are complete nobbers when it comes to football. Our recent stint knocking them off their perch has been delicious.
