In Countesthorpe and all the KP flags and shirts are evident at the minute, they’ll all disappear quickly when we beat the in-bred fuckers

The West Midlands ceased to exist as a functioning county in 1986.

Coventry is part of Warwickshire in all but name only

I don’t see what you mean. Coventry for say business funding is part of the WMCA and has totally separate arrangements to Warwickshire

Reading their forum they really are a weird bunch
They pretend to not care but sing a song about us.
They go on like it's our big day out when we sell out away games more often than not.
They go on about how it's a much bigger game for us but they'll absolutely hate it if we should turn them over in their own back yard.
Basically for me it's a local derby which should have an edge and both sets of supporters should give more than a fuck about it.

There's a weird competition on both sides of trying not to care about it more than the other side.

Which ultimately comes across as actually caring about it

The WMCA has nothing to do with county boundaries. Nuneaton considered joining the WMCA, it doesn’t mean it’s in the West Midlands Country.

There’s a combined authority covering Hampshire and the IOW, but that isn’t a county

It had its county council abolished but many other services are still arranged on a regional basis

Only one I can think of is the police.

Just as many services are arranged on a Coventry & Warwickshire basis

I sincerely hope they are apathetic towards us tbh - Cause if we are more up for it on Saturday we will beat them

I won't hide it, I hate them, never old enough to see us play The Villa so for my generation this is our big grudge game - They are Shitehawks who have cheated and financially doped their way to any success they have ever had - couldn't stand the media love in around them when they were good, couldn't stand the Vardy's and couldn't stand Lineker's smug face when they won the league

It's the game I want to win the most out of any fixture we play

Always a massive local derby this.I've been going to games against them from the late 70s home and away. Proper nasty stuff went on in the 70s, 80s and 90s with them, people who say we ain't bothered about each other are obviously the younger generation. Both similar sized clubs from similar sized cities 20 miles apart. I can't wait
