Re: World's Greatest Derbies
|
I was suprised at their only being 3 British games in the list.
English club football is lauded as the biggest and best yet we saw only Spurs v Arsenal and Liverpool v Man Utd, and they were both well down the list.
How about Chelsea v Arsenal as a Rivalry or The Merseyside, Manchester or Birmingham Derbies - All Massive games with a great deal of history.
Spurs V West Ham is another with alot of tension on and off the pitch. The Tyne-Wear Derby, Leeds Utd v Man Utd (or Chelsea) though haven't been played recently due to Leeds woes are still huge games that run deeper than just football.
North of the border the Edinburgh derby might of got a mention somewhere down the list as well
