The Rams Rivals

[SithHappens]

To me thats the only rivalry that matters. Well done Fulham

Losing at home to the other 2 promoted teams after the money they have spent is worse than any of the results we had in our Pl season in 2007

[GUNTERYY36]

I think we’ve done this, Gunt. It’s a combination of history, current achievement and potential. Like us Wednesday have little in terms of current/recent achievement...but in terms of history and potential they have plenty so that, even at League 1 level, a side that looks capable of success will be attracting top twenty/low thirty thousand crowds...something that, with respect, Barnsley or Rochdale will never do.

Just to repeat, ram, i.e. larger city equals larger number of fans. It's also worth noting that geographically, SW only have SU as their rivals. In contrast, Barnsley have Leeds, SW, SU, Huddersfield, Bradford City, less than 30 minutes drive away.
No contest.

so if georgraphically SW only have SU as a rival, how come Barnsley have SW as a rival but not vica versa?

Don't Rotherham and Doncaster fit into the scheme of things either?

Both irrelevant? Small clubs? Pointless? **** holes? Cold?

The point is Barnsley are surrounded by a nearby cluster of clubs whereas others are not.

Well okay Donny don't count.

Sorry, I really don't know where Barnsley, is but I still dont understand how Barnsley can be close to SW and SW not close to Barnsley

[MadAmster]

Well okay Donny don't count.

So, basically, what you're saying is that it's a case of mind over matter, you don't mind and they don't matter

It’s about as far from Sheffield as Derby is from Nottingham, GP. So, in your world, north of Watford, ...but I’m sure you’re right.
