I guess this thread is started every few months but I've read many comments about whether we consider the Blunts a 'local derby' or not.

I'll try to set this so you may pick up to 5

I'm guessing for you guys it's Derby, us, Leicester and then 2 random others depending on personal preference?!?!

For me personally, it's Wednesday, Barnsley, Ipswich, and Forest (but for the banter on here more than anything!). Next year it will be Leeds, Wednesday, Barnsley and then Ipswich and Forest!

Derby (obviously) and Newcastle (because we had not played them 10 years!).

I can't say I ever look forward to playing the Blades or Fester to be honest, though I enjoy beating them of course.

The first game, then the second, third, fourth, fifth.

After a summer starved of football I'm just eager to play whoever!

Peterborough, Newcastle and West Brom were the ones i looked forward to most mainly due to them being grounds i had not been to before. Also, Peterborough has terracing which for me makes things more enjoyable than sitting down in one of these new identi-kit arenas. I was looking forward to a weekend oot on the toon but thanks to the wonderful people at Sky, i might have to settle for a few beers on a monday night.

Same for me. Peterborough, Cardiff, Bristol City, Swansea and Donny were the ones I was looking out for as I've not been before. Turns out I'll only be making Peterborough and possibly Donny ticket permitting. Are you trying to do the 92 grounds? I'm on 55/92 and want to complete it before I'm 30. :D

Newcastle Away as it gives me an excuse to go up and get wrecked with one of my Sunderland supporting best friends for the weekend.

Then Sky move it to Monday, the absolute bastards.

I'd like to do the 92,, although i think i'm also on about 55 at the moment. I've been to lots of away games over the years but i have tended to re-visit places such as Brammall Lane, Hillsborough & Pride Park about 4 or 5 times instead of concentrating on new grounds to visit.

Yeah, since moving to Worcester we've picked a few grounds such as Cheltenham, Shrewbury, Bristol Rovers, Hereford etc to visit while we're living here. But in the better weather!

It was going to be Newcastle away. I really wanted to go to this as Newacastle have been my 'second team'.

Then those cock-munchers at Sky go and change the date to a Monday!

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! :rant:

i think we could bleat on and on about rivalries all day. people from north notts going "i don't really care about leicester", well too true, i can see why you hate sheff utd. you can also understand some sheff utd fans hating leeds. i guess if you're a sheff utd fan right in the south of yorkshire, you might well hate forest.

Seriously though (and in no particular order):-

1) Derby - obvious reasons
2) Palace - I like decent day on the beer in our glorious capital
3) Newcastle - weekend (or Monday night now) away
4) Sheff Utd - not too far and another decent day on the beer
5) Peterborough - memories of 1994, however, I was peeved when it clashed with a week in Albufeira.

I went

Peterborough, Sheff Weds, Sheff Utd, QPR (all away)... nothing to do with rivalries, just quality away-days.

Derby at home, obviously
