Favourite derby match

[Simster]

Excluding those which involve the mighty stripes, which derby game is your favourite then?

Rangers v Celtic is a nasty bigotted affair played out by a pair of flat track bullies, who are all too shit when up against proper football teams. So to be honest, I can't get excited by that one at all.

I always think Liverpool v Everton should hold a lot more interest to me than it does. But it just doesn't - no idea why. Same goes for Newcastle v Sunderland. Zero interest to me, really.

I really really like the North London one however. Even despite the fact that Arsenal have OWNED Spurs since the mid 80s, its still an enjoyable to watch for me.

As for "lesser" derby affairs, the Wolves/West Brom and Blackburn/Burnley always look FEISTY. I like the look of them.

The M1 Derby

Luton v Watford

Always kicks off with the fans and the hatred is pure evil.

Totally unexpected as I always thought Watford had no 'firm' however for this game all hell breaks loose!

Huddersfiled vs Bradford gets very nasty

 

[Woodchip]

Lewes v Eastbourne Borough

I would imagine Cardiff v Swansea is pretty interesting.

I would imagine Cardiff v Swansea is pretty interesting.

It always used to be, but in recent years the only way to get a ticket for the away end has been if you go on an official coach and you get your ticket given to you on the coach. Seems to have cut out a number of the problems.

Stoke v Port Vale always had a habbit of being evil.

Portsmouth v Southampton always makes me laugh, the Pompey bullies run around terrorising Southampton fans all day. Plus my cousins are Pompey so it's good to wind them up beforehand.

Apparanly the Bristol derby is a good one because both clubs are so rubbish it means so much to them to be the best team in town.

I've also got a place in my heart for Stoke v Port Vale as I've been to quite a few of those games.

Barcelona (ECU) vs LDU Quito


I watched Barcelona play Emelec in '99. That was quite a violent affair, but pales in comparisan to this game just before Christmas!

Mansfield v Chesterfield always seems to be iffy, but I believe that is more to do with the miners strike than football.
