Championship thread 25/26! (11 Viewers)

[Leicesterfox]

Thing is, not one Derby or Forest fan would genuinely consider Leicester as their biggest rival.

That‘s for a start considering I have friends in Belper and Ruddington; the latter considering Leicester as more rivals than Derby; Derby I agree with though. However you wouldn’t have thought that when we won the playoffs in 1994 ⚽️

I'm on the way now, is 53 old, to some yes

53 is not old, my father died of a brain hemorrhage when he was only 55, no illness, no warnings just gone.

Why will it be twelve points when we’ve not gone into administration? Ten loot points at the most.

If Man City hadn’t cheated we’d have finished top four on two occasions in 2020 and 2021 so maybe opening up a ‘can of worms?’

Not to say we won’t get a points deduction though.

pissing off the EPL and the EFL??? 6 points for each I reckon, anyway I like 12 better than 10 so that'll do it for me!

Always a dozen for me but alas now replaced by the Ten and raised in price

Then they're not actual Forest fans. I've just posed this question to two Forest fans friends of mine btw which go home and away and they reiterated the same thing.

Leicester is a complete irrelevancy for them and always has been.

Who would a Kenilworth fan consider their biggest rival?

The tax man?

I've just taken a random post from Reddit about who Forest consider rivals. Its a small sample size but the below seems to back this up...

Derby>Liverpool>Sheffield United>Leeds. I don't give a shit about Leicester personally.

For me it’s Just Derby. I hate other clubs like Leicester, Leeds, Cardiff and Sheff Utd. But I’d not consider them rivals.

Derby > Leicester > Leeds > Sheff United.

I've lived my whole life in Sheffield so I'm biased. For me United are a close second to Derby and tbh on match days against Utd I'm more nervous than I am for Derby games. I've barely known any Derby fans in my life and plenty of Utd ones, so those games have always had higher stakes for me.

Derby>Liverpool>Donny>Burton>NottsCounty

Seems like they aren't particularly bothered about Leicester really. I think i'd get on well with the one who really hates the Blunts.

Worth noting that we have plenty of fans of other clubs who claim not to care about Coventry while constantly posting about us but the above wasn't about Leicester specifically, it was merely about who they consider rivals.

I would have said the anti fox hunting people

Yeah ok. Go on their forum as you really sound in the know for the Nottingham
area living in Kenilworth

[Hutch11]

All this, we dont care about them, they dont care about us is utter bollox
We are local rivals , they are local rivals to Notts and derby , we all care that we beat the wankers

The Human League were only good for their first two albums, DM the same under Alan Wilder; The Cure are better full stop!

All there are better than any Britpop like Oasis however

No!

I mean I went to university in Nottingham and two of my friends are season ticket holders and have been for the past 25 years.

So clearly more clued up than you my simple little friend.

My whole Dads side of the family were Forest fans and I never heard them talk about Leicester, Derby all the time. Never Leicester.

He's an idiot quite frankly. He's debating something which isn't up for debate.

 

[robbiethemole]

They actually don't care about us, but the twat is continually on here?? yeah right!!

 

[Evo1883]

You are but a child!

I’ll be very lucky to have more than another five years It’s a good job that I will be able to spend my declining years watching the Sky blues in the Premier League

Ah dont say that .. such a sad thought ( not the premier league stuff )

You never know eh

Love kenilworth , my favourite place to take my dog a walk is by the castle

Had my hair cut in Kenilworth today, as it happens.

Brings back memories. Kenilworth Common is a good walk for the dogs too. Crackley Woods was also a bit of a favourite before certain other things started going on down there.

Oasis are a bit too modern for you Hinckley folk.

My god why are you getting so wound up! Facts speak for themselves. Yep I went to Nottingham Uni too. Doesn’t mean you’re clued up on what most Nottingham fans think

 

[Leicesterfox]

Just here for the banter as most of you keep biting! Every time I say something, one of you beautiful people reacts

At least you have a laugh, the Forest weirdos get really wound up ⚽️

 

[Leicesterfox]

What’s that got to do with caring about you? do, I pity your honours won list but seriously don’t see you as rivals. Just come on here for the love in as somebody always reacts! ⚽️

That's extremely sad that your life is so shallow.

 

[JohnWH]

Cheers again @Leicesterfox
I cannot recall if it was you or one of the other Leicester fellas on here who told me a few weeks ago to go fuck my boyfriend with my own 6 finger fist. If it was you, brilliant. If not, cheers anyhow.

 

[JohnWH]

An extra finger for fisting your boyfriend with.

Found it, so my recall wasn't spectacular. It seemed you implied you yourself was doing the fisting someone else. Fair play and carry on.
