As much they want it to be Forest, it really isn't. It's a bit like us claiming a rivalry with nearby Pompey when they've only got eyes for Souhampton.

I always thought it was Coventry.

Is there a point to this?
Don't suppose they are bothered at the moment.

We should be honoured that Palace feel a certain way (well in most part) or the title of the thread could quite easily have a sussex spin to it .
They should also feel honoured .

Their fans have been chanting "Are you watching Forest?" In every recent match so I guess they are.

Coventry certainly used to be their main rivals. I used to know a Leicester fan - he tagged along with me to an Albion away game a few years ago and we found ourselves in a Victoria pub full of Cov fans who worked through a full back catalogue of anti-Leicester songs as my mate hastily covered up his LCFC tattoos!

I know of a couple of Leicester fans who call Coventry their M69 rivals.

My uncle is a Leicester fan, has been since the 40's and he always said Coventry were their rivals. Awkward as he lives in Coventry.

Absolute tosh! Forest Derby is a much bigger rivalry but Lesta hate them both. Lesta Chelsea also always had an edge.Chelsea used to sing about Lesta b4 the JCLs took over.

If in the same division possibly but surely County are Forests greatest rivals.
No, Forest fans don't care much about County. They absolutely hate Derby.

I do work for a customer in Derbyshire. There are Forest and Derby fans who work there, and this is their true rivalry. The bragging rights are so important to them.
Notts Country/Coventry - don't even register on the radar for them.

Living in Ilkeston bang in the middle of Nottingham and Derby I can guarantee that Derby and Forest only care about each other and not Leicester.
Notts County's rivals are Mansfield.
Leicester don't have a great rivalry, it's mostly just Coventry.

The only thing Northampton has a rivalry with is haemorrhoids. We do have a suicide pact with Tirana, though.
I'm sure they still do. Alan Birchenall was the reason I think. Alf can put me right . . . .
