Coventry about to drop all 3 points vs 5th bottom Norwich... now soon to be an only 3-point cushion over Boro.

The spark of the Millwall vs. West Ham derby is gone


I also wonder if there's something to be said for just how little they've played each other in recent times. They've only played each other 7 times since 2000, none since 2012. If you're a Millwall or West Ham supporter that was born in 2000, you maybe only remember the 3 games that were played from 2009-2012. That's an entire generation that get told that their rivals and they hate each other, but do you really feel it if you never witness it?

I understand it's not exactly a 1:1 comparison because plenty of derbies go through droughts because they're in separate divisions, but I just couldn't imagine being a 26 year old Gamecock fan and every older generation swearing to me up and down how we hate Clemson more than anyone else, but I could only personally remember playing them 3 times, all before I was a teenager. I just wouldn't feel that same kind of hatred when there's such a long absence.

ETA: I have no doubt, that their older supporters still loathe each other.

At opposite end of the table Leicester City have been hit with a six point deduction and are now only out of a relegation spot because of goal difference

Yep. Birmingham is over 30% Muslim. Leicester has a good number of Hindus and Sikhs but is still over 25% Muslim.

I'm liking how the top 10 is looking right now. Not really much a chance for the yo yo clubs to get promoted. Should see some fresh new teams in the Premier League that haven't been up in a while, if ever.

Looking forward to the playoffs as well to see those teams really go at it

The gap to the last playoff spot is still pretty close, anyone 7th-15th has a decent shot at it
