There was no need for it. There's been quite a bit of handbags in the game. Strange; I thought Burnley were Blackburn's traditional rival (not sure who you'd class as Preston's rival; Blackburn does seem to be the closest to them geographically).
Blackpool are Preston’s rival
Hardly a suprise with how the season has started and where they are in the league, it looked like they were going to sack him at the end of last season but decided to keep.Brut gone at Cardiff. Seen their fans on Facebook calling for Ryan Giggs or Rob Page!
I went to the South Wales Derby a few weeks back and he got his in game management spot on with the right substitutions. I guess they’d raised for the occasion.Hardly a suprise with how the season has started and where they are in the league, it looked like they were going to sack him at the end of last season but decided to keep.
We're doing very nicely thankyou..33 more points to survival.....
Personally (and I'm sure others would disagree) I class a derby as 2 teams from the same city, other games are rivalries.Would you class tonight's game as a derby? If Ipswich and Norwich can be classed as one, why not these two?
I agree, 100%. Take that Palace/Brighton thing; ludicrous that they call that a derby.Personally (and I'm sure others would disagree) I class a derby as 2 teams from the same city, other games are rivalries.
That's not to say a rivalry isn't as intense as a derby, as these prove they are generally worse , Cardiff/Swansea, Newcastle/Sunderland, Pompey/Saints, Leeds/Man Utd, Man Utd/Liverpool
