Would have to be Rangers v Celtic for me.....
Spurs vs Gunners
Wolves v Baggies
I will say Hibs v Hearts - I was at Tynie on boxing day, right behind the goals so got a decent view of Craig Gordon going down like a ton of bricks after Dean Shiels 'sickenly assualted' (C. Jamboskeekback) him!. Although the result didn't go the hibees way - Tynie is a great place for atmosphere at a derby game - we may all sl*g it calling it the Pink Bus-shelter but with the stands being so close to the pitch and steeply raked - it's a brilliant place to go for atmosphere on a derby.
Regrets - 3.
1. My highschool years being bookended by the hibs wins either end of the Hearts 22-in-a-row, no Monday morning gloating after a derby for me for 6 years!!
2. Having to walk up to Captains Road for a New Year party from Easter Road after the 92 NYD derby - 5-1 to Hearts and the JT's scoring all the goals - Gary MacKay own goal.
3. Moving to Aus 4 months before the 6-2 game at Easter Road.
Stop Out Black versus Eastbourne in the Masters would take some
beating!!!
Some of those Eastbourne lads are...ummm... challenging... shall we say.
I second Tom's third one:
Much the same. Still, not the place to air it. There are some genuinely good guys in that side and good on those guys.
That a politic enough response ?

Forza Lynfield College !! Actually, my brother was both a pupil of Lynfield College and played for Green Bay. This was in the mid-late eighties mind.

BEST DERBY VIOLENCE, GAME, FUN, CRAZI sh*t HAS TO BEHNK HAJDUK
SPLIT (supporter TORCIDA) vs DINAMO ZAGREB (supporter B.B.B)
That's so true. I was holidaying in Split last year when Dinamo was about to play Arsenal in CL qualifiers. I caught the train to Zagreb to go to the game, and got spotted by some Torcida guys wearing my Dinamo shirt on the way to the train station. Had to hide from them in the station's toilets and then madly scampered for the train just before it left. Bought another shirt in Zagreb to avoid the same problem on my way back....
Also, a mate of mine saw Galatasaray and Fenerbahce play in Istanbul a couple of years back and said that all other derbies he head seen (including the El Clasico and the Old Firm) were little girl's play in comparison to that.

has!) but tell us your BIGGEST DERBY GAMES!! (ie Stop Out vs Petone

Swansea v Cardiff
Massive derby.
I like the Rangers VS Celtic rivalry too.
I reckon it would Celtic VS Rangers.
As much as I'd love to say Hearts v Hibs....
it is easily Boca v River Plate.
A bunch of us went there for a stag doo a few years
ago.....makes Rangers v Celtic look like a kids match in
comparison!
Goons v Yids
Birkenhead v Glenfield
MAGS v Auckland Grammer
Stop Out Black versus Eastbourne in the Masters would take some

SUNDERLAND V NEWCASLTE
Pukekohe vs Waiuku
local derby

The beautiful maroon kit of Puke v's the lovely Green and
White of Waiuku. I remeber those games as a junior at the pristine
turf of Bledisloe Park. It doens't get much better than that.
Except for the Mersyside derby. Everton tend to do very well in
them too :-)

Green Bay Titirangi United V Blockhouse Bay FC
Green Bay High School V Lynfeild College
Sheffield United v Sheffield Wednesday
Much the same. Still, not the place to air it. There are some genuinely good guys in that side and good on those guys.

Playing for Green Bay High, we had epic battles with Lynfeild. We were always evenly matched. We seemed to win at home more often than not. The football pitch at Green Bay was a resurfaced Dump, hence there was no drainage, in the winter the field was ankle deep mud from the kick off.
I was at Green Bay 95-98, I'll never forget losing to Kelston
Boys 13-0 in a grading round match. Never had a hiding that big
since.

You did mean the hated Blue and White of Waiuku, didn't you?
We've got a fair contingent of Everton fans at Pukekohe.
would have to be AC Milan vs Inter Milan at a packed San Siro
Lverpoo vs Everton... particularly in the late 80's

Both are rubbish Northcote College is where it's at.
It would have to be Hutt Valley vs Mana in the old Caltex cup. They
where the days.
In Brazil Derby = Classico!! And at the moment the biggest classico
in Rio is Botafogo and Flamengo 65,000 people Awesome atmosphere,
always seems to end in 2-2 draw!!!! So frustrating but good
