Thing is, they love this. They love it when we talk about them. And they love it that our biggest attendance was against them.
As I have pointed out, I would say we have more interest over them than the rest of the league. Although, this isn't because they are "rivals", it's because they hate us which leaves us with slightly more interested in them than other teams.
They are now banging on that it must be our cup final at their place aswell, hence so many of our fans trying to tickets. Now, we are a big club (which they seem to accept!), have a much bigger fan base, the game is local, and they're right next to us in the league. But yeah, it's because they're "rivals"
Bless 'em.
