What is the most heated derby matches in the world?

I think Boca vs River.

Opinions please.

red star belgrade vs partizan

some scary shit happens there

rangers vs celtic

It's bound to be somewhere in South America. Theyre fucking nuts down there. Constantly seeing clips of fans running onto the pitch to "confront" players.

although, it isnt a local derby

the most heated game is Manchester United Vs Liverpool

Galatasary Vs Fenerbahce

The turks have been known to take guns into the ground!! along with all the stabbings which is a normal everyday thing during those games!!

Derby v Nottm Forest.

Non Derby match -

Aberdeen v Rangers.  The Dons fucking hate the hun.

Ajax vs Feyenoord is pretty bad remember having a tour of the amsterdam arena and they had bullet proof glass around the way end along with a tunnel to a private train station so that both sets of supporters dont 'interact' outside the ground.

I work with a fiftysomething year old dutch lady, when I was speaking to her about dutch football she said she was a Feyenoord fan, then proceeded to tell me how much she hated Ajax.  Bit surreal but class!

Did'nt some ajax fans get banned from going to De kuip stadium a couple of years ago.

Ajax and feyenoord hate each other so much, The away fans have their own train station at the ArenA and the away section is surrounded by bullet proof glass! :shock:

Yes they do i saw it on ITV 1 on football programe which used to be on wednesday night.

Also i found this on wikipedia.

Long story but that tunnel is the reason why I have a scar above my left eye! :soapy tit wank:

Ouch!. The Swindon vs Reading game is known as the M4 Derby.

Whilst it's hardly Boca Juniors v River Plate or The Old Firm, Blackburn v Burnley can get a bit tasty. Not that they've played much of course in recent times.

Another good South American one is Vasco da Gama v Flamengo

A friend at work was telling me about the time he went to Ewood Park for Blackburn Burnley, said it was an amazing atmoshere, the level of hatred was top notch.

I like to add
Corinthians vs Palmerias
Marseille vs PSG
Lyon vs Saint-Etienne
Ajax vs Feyenord
Benfica vs Sporting.

Apparantly you don't hate us, so it isn;t really a derby.  :soapy tit wank:  :soapy tit wank:  :soapy tit wank:

Boca River is actually pretty bad, have heard of people being shot to death on matchdays and guns in the ground,etc Its very gang orientated. Idimmagine gala vs besiktas is pretyt violent aswell.

I've been to all of those derbies. Overrated.

we'll probably find a rivalry between Marconi Stallions and Queensland Roar in Australia is pretty bad

pumas v america,  cruz azul v america,  pumas v cruz azul. they are the big mexican ones but nothing like boca river.

Think you'd have to go some to beat some of the rivalries in the old Yugoslavia, given that Dinamo Zagreb claim to have sparked the Croat-Serb part of the Balkan Civil Wars of the 90s at a home game against Red Star Belgrade. And, iirc, weren't Arkan's Tigers originally Red Star's firm? That makes Celtic-Rangers look pretty tame in comparison.

Red Star's lot were involved in the overthrow of Milosevic(not Savo), so must have some sort of political element attached to them.

Celtic-Rangers games these days aren't anything like they used to be, still the level of violence around Glasgow on Auld Firm days is ridiculous.  I saw three fights in about five minutes one night I was up there, and there are stabbings and attacks all over the estates as well.

Nothing is likely to beat the sheer lunacy of Boca-River though.  Loco SA.

Maccabi Haifa v Hapoel Haifa can be a nasty one with Maccabi Haifa fans singing about Gas chambers and the Holocaust. And thats just to get warmed up.

Read 442 for good derby games stories.

Is Maccabi an Arab club then?  I'd always thought of all teams being Jewish for some reason.

Bare in mind that teams have been singing songs about the holocaust and making hissing noises to Spurs and Ajax for years.  Probably doesn't have the same effect as singing it to an Israeli team though.

They are From Israel.

I think Amir knows they are from Israel! The point he is making is that you would expect Israeli teams to be Jewish but if the Maccabi fans are singing songs about the gas chambers they are they are not clearly Jewish are they?

I think you should get your coat :?

I Apologise.

No need :wink:

Today it is Feyenoord vs Ajax at de Kuip. Kick off wasat 11.30 are time 12.30 dutch time. At half-time Ajax are leading 2-0. Both goals by Klass-Jan Huntelaar. Will there be riots after the game.

now 4-0 Ajax.

how many of you actually have the faintest idea about shitty argie derbys etc

It's funny how when you read you learn things, don't you think?

Not the same as first hand experience, but if you can learn to evaluate information and you check a variety of sources, you normally get a pretty good grasp of things.

When you off to uni?

Like with all other things in Israel, Maccabi are the Right-wing Likud followers and Hapoel are Left-wing Labour.  Its always Left -v- Right unless an Arab team is playing.

When I worked our there, Betar Jerusalem (another Right-wing Jewish club) and Bnei Sakhnin (Arab club) had a few tasty meetings with fights and riot police called

They have feners v Galatasaray top of the derby league.

Bath City vs Team Bath

Clearly Supermarine v Highworth

Remember when Graeme Souness planted a Galatasary flag in the middle of their nearest and dearest rival's pitch one year.  Legendary stuff.  Probably his finest moment as a manager.

that was around 10 years ago wasn't it.

Yeah mid 90's I think.

What a legend!  :mrgreen:
