Derbys


Recommended Posts

In England we all know its the Liverpool V Man Utd derby but what about the rest of the world?

 

The fixture between Liverpool and Manchester United is one of the most significant sporting rivalries in football, referred to as the North West derby. Both clubs hail from the North West of England, and they are also the two most successful teams in England. Between them they have won 116 honours, 58 to Liverpool and 58 to United at present. The fixture is usually played at midday, due to both media (TV) interest and to discourage fans from drinking before the game.

 

Long-serving Manchester United player Ryan Giggs says that Liverpool against Manchester United is "probably the most famous fixture in English football".[3] This rivalry is one of the most high-profile derbies in the country.

Liverpool vs Everton is without a doubt the biggest relegation 6 pointer - just above West Brom vs Villa vs Wolves vs Birmingham in the W.M four way cage match.

Everton v Tranmere is the Mersey derby, well, the one where the locals go to, anyway.
