    In the Prem I'd say it is.

    I don't really see any higher level of hatred than Spurs-Arsenal. Especially as over the past decade we've managed to close the gap in quality.

    Utd-City isn't a great derby in my opinion, City have only become relevant over the past few years, Utd never used to worry about them. Utd-Pool is more based on the fact they're the two biggest clubs in England but the rivalry is stemmed from success/ past success. Pool-Everton can be tasty but I still think Spurs-Arsenal is the most heated rivalry, we ****ing hate one another to levels I don't think people outside of it really understand.

    Most heated derby game I’ve ever been to was Chester v Wrexham. Absolute scum all of them. Loved it.

    It constantly amazes me that Hughes keeps getting another job in the Prem. He’s ****ed up at just about every club he’s been at.

    There seems to be a group of them. Alan Pardew is another.

    That's probably true of most derbies tbf.

    Thinking about it though there's not many in the Prem at the moment.

    I actually think the inter-city derbies are often fiercer as there's less working/mixing with the enemy so to speak, especially with ours there's often long gaps between us playing which allows it to build up.

    I both hate and love the games when they come around, even though I was obviously taking the piss with that Chelsea comment this morning I'd hate to support a club without a natural rival.

    A lot of the small club derbies are edgy as ****. It kicks off at Plymouth v Exeter apparently.

    Fans think we're joking when we sing "Jelly and ice cream"... They have no idea we're deadly serious.
