Our "Nearest Rivals

Heard some idiot Villa supporter on 606 last night peddling the Pat Murphy myth that, geographically, their closest rivals are the Baggies.

St Andrews to Villa Park 3.5 miles.
The Hawthorne to Villa 3.8 miles.

I know many of their fans aren't Brummies but are they that challenged by the knowledge that they follow a Birmingham based club.
