Cunnyfunt Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Swindon. I enjoyed that the other week. Can't beat stuffing a local rival and I'd definitely fancy some more of that next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Preston and chesterfield, Preston because they are a nice club with great fans and there is genreally warm feelings between the two sets of fans how football rivalry should be, and Chesterfield because why not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kermit the Frog Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Swindon and MK would be a disaster. Preston and Sheffield united would be my preference, plus a return to the Steel City Derby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedJim Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Anyone but Swindon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manon Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 PNE, not sure about the other. Sheff utd proper club, nothing against them but suspect might come back to bite us, by taking points off us our depriving us of a play off place!

Lord Northski Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Swindon...I know it's wrong, but games against them are more exciting than the other candidates. Best atmosphere in years in our recent game, difficult to argue otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky89 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I'm a football fan second to Bristol City, the chance of Sheffield derbies and a Preston vs Burnley fixture in the Championship is enough for me to decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiz Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 A small part of me wants to say Swindon for the derby aspect and away fixture proximity....but then I just think no ..no....no. Mk dons for proximity and great day out and Preston great day out and good old fashioned traditional club plus they have tried playing football without too much cheating and theatrics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Swindon...I know it's wrong, but games against them are more exciting than the other candidates. Best atmosphere in years in our recent game, difficult to argue otherwise. I think this year the Swindon rivalry really started to get some bite because we were competing with each other and their antics. Before that it's always felt like it was much more important to them. For me last week was about settling the score. That said I acknowledge perhaps it will develop into a fierce rivalry if we continue playing each other next year. Re the added bite this year we should remember they were our only local rival played this year, and the Flint factor also. Next year when we have Cardiff I reckon normal service will resume - it'll be a bigger date in their calendar than ours. Plenty of other spicy games to look forward to next year: Brum, Leeds, Wolves, Forest - with Cardiff that's almost a quarter of our home games. Call me a martyr, but given the above I'm willing to forgo Swindon and prevent them celebrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One BCFC Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 The Swindon situation is strange, would love to see them beaten on penalties in the play off final but would also love a West Country derby in the Championship. Would be funny if Preston bottled it now but would like them up, good club. Not overly fussed now really will enjoy them all sweating over the finish line to be honest.

Yes, but if Preston stay down, then there will be a Nobbers v Lashers derby. Much more venomous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tauntonian Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Swindon! .... oh wait Flint said no. although i dont really want swindon to go up, atleast we'd have a decent derby next season along side Cardiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Preston will finish second and deservedly so. Sheff Utd from the play offs as its cup football. Meanwhile, a long way down the football pyramid wouldn't it be nice if going into the final match and Barnet are 1:0 down in the FIRST minute and the sags have 89 minutes to get a winner and miss a penalty in the last minute so draw and fail miserably once again. Now that's magic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne allisons tongues Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Could go down to last game of season Pne 3 clear of Mk and 6 Swindon but have game in hand. If they all win there next 2 games, Pne against Swindon will be the decider, Swindon win and could be heading last day of season all on same points.

Admin phantom Posted April 17, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Would like PNE to come up with us, but have a horrible feeling that Swindle or MK Cons are going to nick it. But fully expect the other two promoted to come from those three sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chairman Mao Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 PNE and Swindon, enjoyed crushing them, they'll be way out of their depth in that tinpot ground and we can have 2 easy wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squire Dastardly Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Preston & Sheff Utd would be worthy members of The Champioship because of their history and their tradition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
