    One of the strangest. Quite genuine dislike between them though.

    Sunderland v Newcastle
    Rangers v Celtic

    Them derbies see some serious clashes every fixture. We were banned from each other stadiums at one point.

    I'm up Scotland all the time now, so I'm hoping to get a Rangers fixture in before the end of this year. 'Mon the Unionists <applause>

    Seemed like he’d been at Rangers for ever, he must be knocking on 40 now.

    All I remember about him is when he scored the goal that beat Newcastle in Derby's only win of the season, a good few year back.

    I think it all stemmed from one game and the fact neither had anyone else.

    Think it went back to the 70's and Terry Venables rivalry with another former Spud who went on to manage Brighton.
    **** rivalry though, the two clubs have basically got **** all to do with each other.

    It all kicked off at some cup game decades ago apparently and that’s about it.

    Seem to remember him scoring a great goal in an Old Firm game.

    Forward to 4mins 50secs

    Saw some people on twitter saying that authorities are considering moving the Boca-River game to a European destination.

    Would love to see that game live but also don’t fancy the idea of being stabbed.

    Rome based ultras are always up for a stabbing, let's hope the game ends up there if it is moved to Europe, but it'll probably end up at Wembley or OT.

    Would be silly if the English authorities agreed too it. Our police are too soft to deal with that level of violence that comes with that derby. They can’t control the heated London derbies when we all play each other, we’re child’s play compared to what their fans do.
