We would miss them. Footie fans need local derbies....

....and if they dropped down then there is no way we can claim that we now have rivalry with whoever the next nearest is (who is it incidentally - Forest, Fulham or even Millwall?). East Anglian football needs capable clubs and at present whilst we are, they are not. As long as we can keep on beating them I would be quite happy for them to continually finish circa 20th with consequent angst for their 12,000 (and dropping) diehard fans. If they did drop to League 1 there is always the chance they would recover as we did. In retrospect that 2009/10 season did us a lot good. So whilst its good to have a great laugh at their expense in the bigger scope of things I would rather they didn't plummet too far fun though that would be to watch. There is also the age old adage of 'what goes around comes around' and at some point it inevitably will.
