As the crow flies, The Hawthorns is actually closer to Villa Park than St Andrew’s is

found that out the other day

Villa Park, St Andrews and the Bescott are all closer to the Hawthorns than Molineux is.

Good reason to have a rivalry with places trying to assimilate it, then.

According to the West Bromwich side it is - they hate Wolves. The derby is called the Black Country derby

The M69 derby will be spicy when it happens very soon.

Yeah but the Hawthorns is the highest ground in the football league above sea level.... So it's easier for the crow to navigate.

The black country has no formal definition and I've heard previously that the entire city of Wolverhampton is not in it.

Thankfully I'm not a brummie like you so can plead ignorance

Tell that to the hundreds singing anti villa songs on the train. And that’s rich coming from you who speaks shit constantly

Just because they are singing anti-villa songs on a train, doesn’t make them their no.1 rival.

Course. I’m just explaining why I said it. In the same way our rivals aren’t Tottenham or Chelsea or United.

They're bordering places, there is no real distinction between the West of Birmingham and all of the Black Country, there is no equivalent to the Meridian Gap

The meridian line takes a hell of a detour from Greenwich to pass between Cov and Brum
