Does it really matter? I actually always call it VOETBAL. It's just my language.

Fact is, the Old Firm has a really long tradition, also because of the religious conflict in the past, which makes it pretty much the biggest derby in Europe.

See Smegma, even Elano is nice today because Inter has won the derby. Tell him Elano, it's a good feeling, isn't it ;D?

of course i'm REALLY HAPPY,but it's a fact:in italy the stadiums are old that's why a lot of people prefer to watch the games at home in front of their tvs

3 points:
1 - What do you consider to define a "big derby"? For me it's not just the fact 2 world football greats are playing because you would consider man utd vs real madrid a derby.
2 teams from the same country? For me el classico fits into this veign. It's really only considered a derby because the clubs are both very successful. A derby in my opinion has to be 2 teams with varying histories whether it be politcal or whatever. As sad as it may be I think a derby is only a derby when it's "more than football". Prime example - Roma vs Lazio.
Honstly, Derby della Capitale >>>>>> Derby della Madonnina
And hence why Celtic vs Rangers is a "bigger" derby than most in the world if not all.
2 - what did you mean about the wall? I don't understand what you were getting at, prolly a dialogue issue.
3 - yeah Celtic and the monkeys are both extremely wack at the moment but derbies aren't really about watching 5-5 classics are they? :)

I think you may take soccer just a little bit too serious if you have rivals.

Who cares if it's the biggest derby?
Quite a question coming from a guy who posts up a thread every time the wind blows.
Who cares indeed.
And Mauzip, we've been over this before. Yes we obsess about football because we are born into it. I wouldn't give a flying fuck if you had an obsession about windmills. How many people have been killed in America through the blood and crips? People killing over land they don't own. Obsessive? People are born into that but I wouldn't judge them for it.
I'm glad I have something in my life that I am passionate about and I will be that will until the day I die, I'm certain of that. I certainly won't be embarrassed about hating Rangers and everything they stand for as an establishment and as a football club.
