In the absence of today's big game, I'm watching Brighton v Palace on BT Sport which is of course Seagulls vs Eagles, as well as being an odd little needle match, and it got me thinking about some of the more entertaining matchups based entirely on club animal nicknames (or mascots, which expands the field a bit).

Obviously Town (and most of the rest of the West) are a bit fucked here as a Robin isn't the hardest of animals. We could probably take Brentford though.

Would need to give some thought as to whether mythical animals (Rochdale wisely went with a dragon rather than a squirrel) would be allowed

Millwall vs Hull is Lions v Tigers, not sure about any Bears around for the full set

Any good ones out there?

(This is what I'm reduced to when the match is off)

Robins are feisty little fuckers. Would do a Canary any day.

How about the Hatters v the Glovers.
