    They seem to have omitted Derby v Nottingham Forest from the list unless it was published before the playoff game yesterday in which case you'd have thought they would have waited.

    Fair enough I wasn't trying to be critical, just making the point it matter more to us than them, I like that.

    Sheffield Wednesday v Barnsley
    Wendy fans don’t like seeing us as local rivals that’s because they know it’s actually:

    South Barnsley v Barnsley

    I find one comment about Oakwell particularly flabbergasting, "It's a dump with rubbish facilities, they've put seats on old terrace, good recipe for a broken ankle".

    1. That didn't happen in the away end. It was built as an all-seater stand from scratch.
    2. How anyone whose home ground is Hillsborough, with the notorious Leppings Lane end, can criticise another ground is beyond me.

    I used to work in Donny about 10 years ago. I can confirm that most Donny fans absolutely hate us, or they did at the time.

    I said not THE derby game, as in not our main one (Wednesday then Sheff Utd surely). Of course they are derby matches.
