I grew up with the blackburn rivalry 20 or so years ago when we both went down and were challenging for promotion etc so they’re the ones for me it’s the fans that are the irritants. Similar to bury. But bury are like a little annoying fly you’re happy to swat away. Wigan’s are like a yappy little mutt constantly biting at your ankles. Eventually you just smash it right in the fucking teeth no matter how shit we are Bury are always worse and Wigan always try to be us. Bless em both Normally you'd associate a local derby with the game that everyone wants a ticket for. Spurs fans will do everything to not miss Arsenal home and away, likewise Sunderland v Newcastle, etc. I dont have a great desire to go to a Bolton v Wigan game any more than any other game. Next time we're in the championship I'll be looking forward to our derbies v PNE, Blackburn, hopefully Burnley. I dont look forward to playing Wigan, I hope we pass them on the way up and they dont get to come here again, except for novelty value sometime. They are like Tranmere in many ways, I dont want to see them. I relish going to Ewood or Turf Moor and to a lesser extent Deepdale, they are the games you want on the fixture list.

Johnnyrotten Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 2 hours ago, Lt. Aldo Raine said: I think the point is that our club's history is determined by what it does itself, not by a local "rival" getting relegated. Yes but don't underestimate the context provided by the fortunes of others. When we were in Europe it felt like we were pioneers for clubs of our size and that definitely added to the special feeling at the time, compared to if Wigan or Burnley had got there before us. And as bad as Newcastle have been for years, it would have been worse for them if Sunderland had been 1 place above. if we're going to be crap it makes it slighly more palatable if others are suffering too, either in league position or financially.
