I hated when we played Rotherham they would always say to me looking forward to the derby game I always gave the same reply….Wednesday only have one derby game and it’s not against you. They are really a nothing club to us. Wrong any local game is a Derby, of course the only one that Matters to us is the piggies one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only wear my shirt when I am in a chatty mood. If I want a quiet day, I rather wear something neutral. I do wear owls leisure wear anywhere no probs but not the matchday shirt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Smith is only used as an impact sub or for nuisance value a la Nuhiu. I thought Toytown were more professional, organised and pragmatic when they beat us at S6 last season but I wouldn’t enjoy watching that every weak. Whats wrong with 'hoofball'? I liked meggos style..gerrit in mixer asap..win games..are you another one whos been brainwashed by baldiolas tippy tappy nonsense? I cant stand big lump it type centre halfs tryin to be maldini..cus its in fashion..hopefully the 2 row z merchants we have signed at the back will put an end to moore tryin to copy pep 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the day, a team is an opponent, and yes, technically a rival as far as the English definition is concerned. But we are talking football parlance here, not straight, plain English. Portsmouth are no more a rival on the first day of the season, than Derby will be on the last. We've only one rival, and we know who that is. Nobody else really matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that there is nothing else. There is no shared hatred for each other there is no smug satisfaction in beating them nor is there no extra hurt in losing to them. I can't see why you are trying to build this up to be something which it isn't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
