Because they're our biggest local rivals. I don't get why Cov fans always see Villa as their biggest rivals. Their fans see Birmingham (obviously), Wolves and West Brom as bigger rivals than us, they're pretty indifferent to Cov as far as i can tell. We need our rivals to hate us back and Leicester certainly do that.
Maybe I'm a bit biased against the scumbags cos I worked there amongst them for years.

Nobody is really your 'biggest' rival in a different league.

I'm sure villa and Newcastle would disagree with this statement , and stoke tbh

I doubt in recent season's Newcastle give a monkeys about Sunderland. Birmingham are just a figure of fun to Villa. Villa Wolves is probably the rivalry at the minute - unless you get a cup tie like WBA v Wolves last season.

I think it's an age thing. Villa were the local rivals once - I vividly remember what felt like the whole of Highfield Road singing you're getting sacked in the morning to John Gregory, and how sweet that Moldovan goal at Villa Park felt. We haven't played them for years though so the feeling of rivalry has largely gone. I see the sense in the current rivalry with Leicester, and I love the atmosphere it generates, without feeling it quite as much in the heart as I did the Villa one.

If either of us cared would be quite good as we’re about the same level. But I can’t bring myself to hate West Brom. Just meh.
I've got a mate who supports them. I always pretend to him I want them to do well but really I don't
I don't like any of the other midland clubs although they are probably the least offensive I suppose.

Hope he went all Cloughie on the kids in Man U tops and told them they won by cheating!
Ha reminds me of that story Matt Forde tells about meeting his idol Clough as a teen. He was a spotty kid and the first thing Clough said to him was "Christ son, have you been headbutting pizzas all day?" then he marches him to the physio and asked him to sort him out! Apparently he was given a steroid cream that was strictly not for faces 🤣
