Phube Posted 9 March 2006 Posted 9 March 2006 And what is your criteria for hating them so?? (Bugger meant to set a poll!! Oh well... )
Knighton Matt Posted 9 March 2006 Posted 9 March 2006 Got to be Derby. I think hating Forest more than Derby has to be a jealousy thing. If someone asked me to be 100% honest I'd have to say Nottingham is a better city than Leicester, although I'll never have any attachement or fondness of it like I do for Leicester as wherever I end up living Leicester will always be considered home. As for Derby however...what a hole! Hate everything about the place so I think when I was growing up and heard Derby fans singing about what a hole Leicester was it made me mad! The hypocrites! So for me got to be Derby over Forest easily (possibly something to do with my age and going to see more Leicester v Derby matches than Leicester v Forest over the years). I'd possibly say Cov would come ahead of Forest for me too.
willy37 Posted 9 March 2006 Posted 9 March 2006 has to be cov for me, only seperated by a small stretch of motorway. ironically i live in hinckley which is actually nearer 2 coventry than leicester but thankfully still in leicestershire:D
Nationwider Posted 9 March 2006 Posted 9 March 2006 Which team do I most look forward to us playing and beating? Nottingham Forest.
Syko Posted 9 March 2006 Posted 9 March 2006 Derby easily... well i am from derby but i know where the best team in the east midlands is!
City_4_Life Posted 9 March 2006 Posted 9 March 2006 I dont know. I really love it when we beat forest, but i also do when we beat derby and cov too. Well they are all our local rivals so we shouldnt pick one out, we should just hate them all the same. It was just a thought.

As every good Wyggy grammar school boy knows Leicester was Europe's second richest city in er 1959 I believe it was. And Knighton was (and still is) the city's richest ward.
Michael Doyle Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 Absolutly love beating the Forrest. But agree Derby is a hole. As for Coventry their new stadium has a LCFC shirt buried within its foundations thanks to some great thinking by some leicester contractors. The shirt brings eternal strength to our team when we play there and from this point forward we will not lose a game at Cov for the next ten years. So for me its between Forrest and Derby. I would have to say its Forrest. COME ON YOU MIGHTY FOXES MadMick

Bluefoxtim Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 is that true? Yeah, there was a story on it a while back, i don't think of cov fans were to pleased!
werestandingup_weresittingdown Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 Fooking forest. Hate them with an absolute passion. scum
Strokes Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 Yeah Forest for me, but i actually want them to come back up, so we can have the plesure of sending them back down again.
Monk Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 I hate Derby more of the lot, just because of the history over the last 10-15 years. Forest are out biggest derby but I don't despise them as I do Derby.
davieG Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 I've never really gone down this route of hating local rivals, in fact I don't mind if they are doing ok as long as it's not as good as LCFC. It's much more interesting if we are all in the same league, as long as we beat them all! I just take each game as it comes (cliche!) with that being the team I want to beat the most. As for other results I just want what's best for LCFC, so if that means Derby/Cov/Forest etc beating someone else to enable us to progress upwards then that's ok with me.
Nationwider Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 It's much more interesting if we are all in the same league, as long as we beat them all! That is the ideal scenario. I wonder how long we'll have to wait to see, say, 3 out of 4 back in the Premiership at the same time? Throw in Villa, Brum and Wolves for good measure and it'd be a fantastic season!
Guest Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 All three clubs have bloody good reasons for disliking them, however as I get older, I'm taking the line that I don't give a crap about any of them. It winds their fans up more.
Alexikokopops Posted 10 March 2006 Posted 10 March 2006 Coventry, especially since I lived right near it for the past two years.
Phube Posted 10 March 2006 Author Posted 10 March 2006 ' date='Mar 10 2006, 01:38 PM' post='286941']Coventry, especially since I lived right near it for the past two years. Leamington or Earlsdon? (Lived in both during my time at Warwick!) So Coventry has a special place in my football heart!! But I still hate Forest more due to the fact that the WHOLE City is up it's own arse!!!
