They're both protestant teamsi can see that because it has alot of similarity to the old firm, they are the big 2 teams in northern Ireland. always competing for titles & i believe religion is involved

Let's face it, the Sheffield derby just isn't a big game anymore.
A top 7 Premier League club against a lower mid table Championship team is too much of a mismatch for anyone to care.
High Green Villa v Hoyland Town Jags should be on there.
Try this one.A list of fifty, set to one per page. That's some quality clickbait, I'm sure, but I'm not playing.

In Germany they call Hamburg vs Bremen a derby.To me a “derby” is between two sides that play in the same city or town. I get pissed off when we play another Yorkshire side and the local wireless and rags call it a derby. Us against Leeds, or Donny, Rotherham, Grimsby (fucking Grimsby!) and the like aren’t derbies.
Our derby is against Wednesday. How the fuck this article can call Real Madrid v Barcelona a derby of any kind is beyond me.
If you’re a one club town/city then you've not got a derby match. You may have a long standing bitter rivalry with another club, but it isn’t and never will be a derby game. Tough titty and all that, but if they aren’t your “next door neighbours” then they aren’t a derby rival.
More piss-poor “journalism” from some berk who’d be better spending lockdown exploring the other delights the internet can offer.
Agree 100% there is no such thing as a Yorkshire derby, unless it means Blades v pig.To me a “derby” is between two sides that play in the same city or town.

Bert has been to a Marseille v PSG game, it's no derby but it's certainly a grudge match.Nothing to do with where we're ranked, this is just idle "journalism " hashed together without much (any?) thought or knowledge. The one that actually struck me as hilarious is the PSG v Marseille one. Paris, last time I looked, is very much in northern France, about 90 minutes from the Channel. Marseille is on the Mediterranean. It's like saying that Plymouth Argyle v Newcastle is a derby. Utter bollocks.
Guy I know who supports Gas says that Sheffield Derby's are tame in passion and hatred compared to Bristol. Wonder how many derbies the prat who's written it has been to.
That's what I thought, and that's where I stopped.50. Sheffield Derby
49. Two clubs you’ve never heard of from Bolivia
yep, I’m out.
Depends how you define “derby”, I guess, but Chesterfield vs Mansfield and Blackburn vs Burnley have been pretty tasty in the past.
Call that rivalry ?
What about Darnall Wesley v Lopham Street Meths in the Bible Class League ? ( For younger viewers , I kid you not )

Where coal miner meets coal miner. Strong in the arm and weak in the head - and inbred too.
The two Munich clubs have shared a stadium for most of their existances. When the two clubs joined together to build their shiny new stadium outside Munich, it was built with a translucent shell which can be lit up in blue or red, depending on who was playing. Because 1860 are too crap, they sold their share in it and moved back to their original ground, which, I believe, they now share with Bayern's women's team.That's what I thought, and that's where I stopped.
Interesting thing about that Bolivian derby though is that both teams share the same ground - it holds 38,000. One team plays in green, the other in blue. I wonder what colour they painted the ground?![]()
I've seen that. You pass it on the way from the airport to the city. I didn't realise 1860 had moved back to their old ground though, so presumably it only lights up red now? Sheffield's going the same way - won't be long now until the city is only red.The two Munich clubs have shared a stadium for most of their existances.
