Championship 2012/2013

So We've got bastards on Sunday and it's not even on tv! What a load of shit! I think we'll win 2 - 1

Palace will have a tough game against Brighton, I'll go for another 2 - 1 win
Leicester should do Derby no problem, I'll go for a 2 - 0 win

[skeletor]

So all 3 of us have derby matches.

Burnley 2 - 1 Blackburn - Blackburn were poor when we played them
Leicester 3 - 1 Derby
Palace 1 - 2 Brighton - I sincerely hope we don't lose but I can't see us winning. Our biggest rivals and we have had two reasonably poor games off the back of our 14 games unbeaten. They will want revenge for us being the first team to beat them in the league at their new ground last year. Holloway didn't even realise they were our biggest rivals (I don't think many people do).

There are actually quite a few other derby matches too - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20496315

Seems rather strange for this to be "random" from the fixtures computer.

[BlacKBlazE]

Pretty bad that I didn't think they were your BIGGEST rivals either
Pretty impressive all these derbies in 1 weekend, So we agree Burnley and Leicester should win
and going off your prediction Palace - Bright will end 3 - 3

[skeletor]

I don't think many people know about Palace and Brighton especially the further North you go as most derbies are based on location which is why people assume Millwall or Charlton are our main rivals.

Quite funny reading about the planes being flown over the respective stadiums for Blackburn/Burnley.

Don't be surprised if something CHICKEN related happens at the turf on Sunday

[skeletor]

A fan of some club snuck a chicken in to the ground for a match against Blackburn.

Here it is - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17990595

Haha I remember that, I think a lot of our fans are going to go dressed as chickens

[skeletor]

Glad I was wrong about the Palace score, pretty close with the Leicester score.

Guess Austin needed a chicken up front with him.

[BlacKBlazE]

Not too happy but better than a loss.

[skeletor]

Indeed. Hoping Blackburn can do us a favour and beat Cardiff on Friday, give us a chance of going top again. Best thing is we can afford to lose and still stay second.

But KG is going off to the African Cup of Nations in January so it will be interesting to see how we cope.
