awesome thread title. Quality fishing!

The Hull derby is quite entertaining as youve got two similarly placed teams and a city about 10 seconds from a riot during and just after the game.
It can't even be played on a bank Holiday as the police can't deal with the aftermath.

What i personally like about the Saints?wigan derbies is that you can happily go in a pub full of wiganers in your Saints top and have a bloody good laugh and RL chat together. Bit of jesting and winding each other up, but nothing more than that

Dear oh dear. Silly old Bruce (banned from everywhere else) comes on here with his usual garbage and everybody jumps on board. Ignore him and he just might go away.

We don't say "rart". Isn't that a West Yorkshire thing? Other two are spot on though!

Ah, the old annual "Which Easter game is better"?

Never gets tired this. It's what makes the VT the home of serious debate (sic).

Tbf it's better than the usual topics, which just tend to be whatever popped into Jean's head whilst he was having a s**t.

The Hull game is the true derby in the game.

Wigan v Saints is actually the 'true' derby. Google it.
