I developed something of a soft spot for them years ago when I used to go up every weekend to see an ex-girlfriend.

Almost went to watch them play at home once, then it dawned on me that I'd be rooting for a team in blue and white stripes and quickly disregarded the idea.

Huddersfield don't care about us and absolutely hate Wednesday. As anyone who knows anything about Wednesday fans might expect, they didn't take the playoffs penalties loss very graciously.

That game was Wednesday's turning point. It's all being downhill since then. They've literally never recovered 😂

Yeah that's a good point, the Huddersfield fans were taking the piss for ages after as well, due to the Pigs usual arrogance and bluster beforehand.

Same happened with them and Brighton too if I remember rightly.

In the aftermath of that game we were at a music festival and one of my kids was wearing a United shirt, and a big group of Huddersfield fans came over and were having a laugh with us about Wednesday for about 10 minutes, congratulating us on promotion and saying they hoped we'd stuff them (little did we all know!).
 
Forest are the obvious one, but I offer two alternatives

1. Derby - it's close by, and it would annoy Forest if we ignored them for their biggest rival

2. Hull - it's really sweet how they get wound up about us, so maybe a year of actually giving a shit about them would be fun
 
I think it's unlikely that the dingles will get promoted and Donny could still get promoted so potential for a couple of local derbies.

I seem to recall from the View froms that Hull seemed to have an inexplicable dislike for us whereas we have more or less no opinion about them. Maybe they're still smarting from us winning promotion instead of them from Division 3 in 1984?

Forest are always seen as rivals with the 'scab' thing, which if you think about it, is about a relevant now as the pigs still harping on about 1979.

To be fair, even without the Scab thing, Forest fans are among the biggest bellends in English football.

Not for those that were there. There’s a big difference between losing a football match and losing your livelihood.

It's entirely possible that we could be without Pigs, Toytown and the Dingles as local fixtures next season, and if Brighton/Palace and Norwich/Ipswich can be called derbies then anything can.
So let's develop an unreasonable dislike of another team, anyone will do.

I'll start:

Luton Town: The M1/A57/A1/A6/A505 Derby or The Martin Cranie Classic

It's time these bastards entered our radar. I fully expect banners to be made of Cranie's face with 'Judas' written on them, and effigies of him hung outside Cricks. Plus their ground's wank and we'll get a poor away allocation next season. Booooooooo, wankers, Eric Morecambe? I shit him.

Sheffield United v Luton Town live on Sky Sports

"Just 136 miles separates these two infamous adversaries, two teams from two cities built on a proud industrial heritage: Sheffield, the city of steel and powerhouse of the former British Empire and Luton, the historic centre of reasonable quality bespoke headwear. They will be arguing in the playgrounds and workplaces tomorrow over who dislikes Kevin Blackwell the most, but for now, there's old scores to settle on the pitch, we're live after the break".
 
Birmingham City, only for the fact they are the closest team to Villa and I'm really starting to despise the cheating bastards

They are a great little club, very well run with a long history.
However, if we play them there will be some unpleasant business going off in the town, just like it always did when we played them.

The gypsy camp is at Newark not Lincoln.

Weren't there a few run offs with their firm back in the good old days too? They were supposed to be quite handy weren't they?

LTE they were called [Lincoln Transit Elite]. A tidy firm is the description- meaning one very large wrestler and his young cousins

I remember one occasion before the match sometime back in the 70s or 80s, I was in the Cricketers when, being upstairs with a couple of old school mates and their families, we saw a Scab out side (we were in the room upstairs by the window). He was shouting out a challenge but nobody took him up on it.

Next thing thing we know, as he's being totally ignored, is he marches into the pub, (I'm told this is what happened) and issues a challenge whilst also turning a glass upside down on the table in the old-fashioned way.

Again, no response.

He decides to walk out and it was then we heard the glasses smashing and he emerges beneath us absolutely covered in blood.

Handy, or barking?

I'm sure I heard he topped himself in later years.

True, but singing derogatory remarks at opposition fans, most of whom were highly unlikely to be involved at the time is as absurd as Wednesday fans harping on about a game played before anyone under 40 was born.

If we played a German team, would we sing songs about the second world war?
