DERBIES

Parsonxowl: your leicester friend is correct.

Leicester are regarded in a similar way to which Sheff Utd / Sheff Wendy might regard Barnsley, i.e. as the poor relation.

I see what you did there Toronto

What? What did I do?

"Clubs like Leicester must feel a bit left out in this thread about Derbies."
--------------------

Only too happy to be left out. Honestly and genuinely local rivalries are fun, but they're simply not an important part of my identity as a fan like they are for fans of Derby and Forest.

Good luck in the return leg.

Spartacus - never heard of the world-famous M69 derby????????

Just like to point out that no Leicester or Coventry fan refers it to the M69 Derby.

Im with Joby, Derbies aren't important to me (then again we dont have any and I equally as upset and annoyed losing to Watford

In Coventry they talk a bit nasaly like Brummies so I expect Coventry regard their main rivals as West Midland teams. Even if Coventry had a derby game I doubt it would create much interest or passion.

Surprise susprise, Notts Forest get their biannual spanking off Derby and Toronto T it suddenly decides to start abusing Leicester again. As predictable as it is sad.

And equally predictably, leicester pity fans spit the dummy.

Coventry are similar to us in the fact that they don't have one big Derby game. In terms of who they consider their main rivals then historically it was Aston Villa, but now it's Aston Villa with a secondary rivalry with us.

Leicester fans who live in the Hinckley area would probably consider Coventry to be the team they most like to beat.
