Also lacking Pompey v Saints and Cardiff City v Swansea, both of which have historically placed a ban on away fans attending the fixture. They’ve missed some big ones. Think we’ve made it on because it’s Lineker and we’re playing them soon, because otherwise it’s not making it on, Forest vs Derby probably wouldn’t have either.

The Bear Posted 28 January 2022 Share Posted 28 January 2022 Baggies and Villa hate each other quite a lot. A lot more than we hate Villa. Us and WBA are still the main rivalry, it's just that we haven't spent very much time in the same division in the past few decades so it's not as intense for the recent generation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattFox Posted 28 January 2022 Share Posted 28 January 2022 (edited) Villa v Blues and West Brom v Wolves are the big ones by a distance. Villa don’t like West Brom but don’t really care about Wolves Blues don’t like Wolves but don’t really care about West Brom Nobody cares about Cov. Edit : Sunderland really hate Cov 😂 The distance thing is misleading because most West Brom fans live in the Black Country well over the M5 Edited 28 January 2022 by MattFox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've played Derby more in the premier league and had far more memorable games with them, I cant remember a single magical moment or what from a premier league Derby v Forest or Leicester v Forest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxyLeon Posted 29 January 2022 Share Posted 29 January 2022 If you've been to a Villa vs Birmingham game, you will see why all the 'East Midlands rivalries' are a complete farce. Lucky to get a ticket with a Birmingham fan in the away end at Villa Park a few years back, game was a terrible 0-0, but the atmosphere was incredible, and outside the ground, it was very very spicy.

Derby have only played Forest in the PL 4 times. Notts Forest have played us 6 times in the PL. I would have been at all 6 of those games, but like you say, I can’t think of a single magic moment. The only memory I have is when we played them at the City Ground on the last day of the season and they were already relegated. We lost 1-0 and they all ran on the pitch at the end giving it the bigun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we finished top 10 and they went down though so not all bad. Cracking away day that was including being escorted to the ground as then Notts manager Ron Atkinson was leaving a hotel.
