I was talking to some mates of mine the other day about the rivalry between the two Sheffield teams, and how some of them take it to ridiculous extremes such as Wednesday fans not eating bacon because it's red and white, and it made me think "I kinda wish we had a rivalry like that". We've got Leeds, but if we're honest they don't really care about us outside of this board, Scunthorpe are too small to hate and Grimsby are now in the conference. The conclusion? **** Middlesbrough, similar sized club, don't have real rivals of their own and like us the rest of Yorkshire won't truly accept them. We can call it the "Sort of in Yorkshire but nobody really notices derby", or if you're boring the "Humber-Tees derby". Discuss. It's brilliant, I know.
I was going to make a thread almost identical to this one once, then realised how **** people would think it was.
I was going to post some sort of sarcastic rebuttal before anyone posted such a thing like that, but I feared it'd detract from the point of the thread. Which by you not disagreeing, I'm taking you agree with, now back on topic... Seriously can't stand the Middlesbroughnian bastards.
I agree with youmate, it is a shame we dont have the rivalry, just look at Hull FC and Hull KR! I think Leeds do care a bit but dont hate us as much as we hate them! When they played Man U its was classed more of a rivalry by the media then when we played them. I think we do have a bit of rivarly with Middlesbrough though, look what happend in the pre season game we had against them a few years back! maybe we should all get on their board and start winding them up?? Oh and who are this S****horpe and Grimsby?? are they a pub team??
Tony, we're both outcasts on this board, and I'm fully behind you in your quest to have Middlesbrough (forcefully?) instated as our rivals. The stupid smoggie ****s.
Smoggies, that's the one. Great derogatory nickname. I've been doing some research on the smoggie ****s and I've come to realise that they are indeed the most boring team I could have picked, nevertheless, we carry on.
For the tweeters amongst us I've started a #hullhateboro hashtag. Feel free to comment on how much you hate these bastards.
I'm not at all surprised that you have used the word forcefully in the same sentence as 'I'm fully behind you". It's the Adamson/Knos connection I think. Perry you have been warned.

As long as that's all he does then we'll be fine. It's when he tries to bum me that we might have a problem. And no Erik it's not because I have run out of KY, I just don't dig the hoop.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I actually think you're quite popular with a fair few posters on here. PS - They are stupid smoggie ****s, you can count me in.
