Rivallry in the midlands

Recommended Posts

Posted

Okay ive begun to notice this over the last few years that forest and derby hate each other more and more. This therefore removes leicester from their category of hate. Why do we constantly pretend they hate us even tho we do hate them... Personally i hate coventry more than both.. Always seems a better atmosphere against coventry because they hate US! Why do we not re-direct attention to a club like theres and create a bigger rivalry with them, because frankly we get laughed at, because we make such a big fuss out of forest and derby. When coventry are there to hate even more if all this makes sense??

Not another one of these threads, I will make this clear to you Fact Forest hate us and still do, Derby hate us, we all hate each other, Coventry are just a pub team :thumbup:

Agree with you there, just put near enough the same thing in the other thread.

I say we launch a protest to focus on Leeds aha everyone hates them but they have no real rival as such.

They are local rivals with Bradford City?

That hardly counts for anything these days when they are leagues apart, although get the odd revival when played in cup comp.

They are still rivals though. They haven't played in the league for years, but the rivalry is still there. Thats why I don't get it when people say 'I hope Forest/Derby/Coventry get relegated' etc because then we'll not have a local game again.

Bloody stupid revamped thread. People who use the word HATE directed at another club, obviously have no clue as to what hatred, really is.

Its a football term actually and i didnt realise! Also i have not been on FT for long so hows about calm down and shut the fvck up!

Completely disagree.

Why because they hate Derby does that mean they can't hate us? I hate Forest with a passion but I still have enough hate left in me for Derby and Coventry.

And no, the atmopshere's against Cov are generally shitter, partly because of their support but also because a lot of Leicester fans don't care about them, which in turn is mainly because of their atrocious support.

Most Leicester fans see Forest as the big one. When I was younger I only really hated Derby, but then when I started going to a lot of games I realised that the game we really made a big deal about was Forest. Getting caught up in this as well as their horrible arrogant fans made them the big one for me. The games against them are undoubtedly the best atmospheres.

Derby comes second for me. Derby is the game that the smallest amount of Leicester fans think is the 'big one'. However, more people see them as a rival than they do Coventry.

Coventry comes third for me. They are shit club with shit support and whilst I do really hate them, the derby itself is average at best in terms of what goes on in the crowd. I'd say only about half of our support class it as rivalry but more people consider it the 'big one' than those who think Derby is the big one.

Of course, each to their own and if you hate Coventry the most that's cool. But I completely disagree it's a better atmosphere with them, they do really hate us but they don't show it with their terrible support in numbers. I do think that THEY create a better vocal atmosphere than Forest or Derby fans (tbh all 3 of them have poor support) but OUR fans create a much better atmosphere against Derby and Forest especially.

I'll give you another example - Man Utd fans will mostly consider Liverpool and Man City as bigger games than games against Leeds. However, Leeds fans will make a bigger deal about Man Utd than they do about any other local rival so it's therefore a better derby for them.

To sum up, I couldn't give 2 shits what Forest and Derby fans think, we choose who our rivals are, not them. We have a long standing traditional rivalry with those 2, Forest in particular, Coventry also but less so. Coventry will never be our biggest derby game. I'm not embarrassed that we consider Forest rivals at all, I'm more embarrassed for Forest, Derby and Cov since they have shit teams and shit fans. :thumbup:

If you don't like it you can deck me, as I'm sure you did to all those City fans trying to create an atmosphere last night.

Forest are first on the list for me, solely for being there on that day in December under Pearson. Also Birmingham and Villa are teams I can't stand but that's because of my locale in Tamworth.
