Who's our 'derby' with next season?

[Comedy Steve]

Tough one this - No palace, no pompey. Hmmmm

Any suggestions?

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

will have to be one of the sarf london teams i reckon, or perhaps reading?

 

[The Large One]

Reading.

Gillingham would be a Donkey Derby.

 

[The Large One]

Bollocks. forgot about them. Understandable I suppose.

 

[Comedy Steve]

QPR sound the most likely to me - though the Cardiff and Reading rivalry of the last few years adds to the spice of those games for me

 

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

I'd say Reading has the most about it next season, what with everything's that happened between us over the last two seasons. QPR will still be a cracker though with a full end of Albion I don't doubt!

 

[moggy]

maybe the hammers?
personally i like em but they are close to oribent

 

[Curious Orange]

Hmmm, no proper derby matches at all really. Just a few renewals of aquaintances.

 

[sams dad]

Did anyone else notice how complimentary Ian Holloway was (about the Albion) in the Programme.He said our 2nd half performance against QPR at Withdean was the best of the season."They passed us off the park....."

 

[SussexSpur]

Bet Mark McGhee's looking forward to returning to the New Den.

 

[Happy Seagull]

Should be interesting when that VD ridden bloke comes back to Withdean next season.

 

[Locky]

Yeah close call between QPR, Reading and Millwall.

All of them will have a slight derby feel about it.

 

[Gully]

Guess it has to be Millwall as they are probably closest.

 

[Bobby's Gull]

Hate Palarse even more now that they got promoted, really wanted revenge for that 5 - 0 defeat. Gillingham is a bit of a derby though, another trip to Priestfield beckons.

 

[Albion Edd]

I'd say Reading is our main one with the rivalry when we won div. 2 and with them nicking coppell and sidwell.

I also think QPR might be a bit of a derby with the leon knight thing, it was a bit of a derby atmostphere this season

 

[Gwylan]

Millwall surely? The closest team to Brighton geographically and there's the McGhee/Paphitis history. Even the pub down the road from the ground is called the London and Brighton.

And isn't Steve Gritt still there?

 

[Yorkie]

There is history with Reading, QPR and Millwall.

All are going to be equally as much of a needle match because one or other of the teams will have something to prove.

 

[Trigger]

I'd say QPR.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

McGhee must be relishing next season-

Reading- he walked out on them
Leicester- he walked out on them
Wolves- sacked him
Millwall- sacked him

Our manager will be vying with Neil Warnock for Division One's most popular boss

 

[Fridge Man]

Reading, Millwall, Cardiff i reckon but hopefully Millwall and Cardiff wont take that up with us outside the ground
