I think it is because we work together, live down the same streets, families are often divided..The Hull Derby is a real derby.

I think in this sort of argument people will generally back their own teams derby, its the natural thing to do. Realistically there shouldnt be much between any of the games attendance wise. Saints and Wigan grounds are a similar distance apart to Hulls and Rovers with Leeds and Bradford no that far further.

Someone touched earlier on amateur crowds in Hull. Most clubs have always attracted big crowds and premier East Hull v West Hull games can easily attract crowds in excess of 3000.

Well done to Dally though on doing the tour to watch different clubs thats real passion for ya.

Yep, 2 empty trophy cabinets.

I think you'll find our trophy cabinest has the Carnegie Floodlit 9s Trophy in it :p
What did Wigan and Saints win last year?

Using what logic?

My folks talk of the Warrington Widnes derby but when they were in SL recently I thought it was flat.
Definately not a real derby in these days, if we drew them in the cup this year may be different.

The logic that a PROPER derby is 2 teams from the same city.
Not 2 cities that are near each other

thanks, it meant a lot to me to see the place that invented the game.

and the Hull derby seriously was awesome

i was jealous.

Just out of interest, whick one was it that you went to Dally?

I have never classed Leeds/Bradford as my main Derby. I prefer the Leeds/Cas games. Much better atmosphere. Leeds/Bradford were just half decent teams at the same time 10 years ago.

love it

what utter tripe
I was there and it was a good game, and well done to both FC and KR fans fpr the 16,204 attendance for Rich Hornes testimonial,
we do miss our rugby as a previous poster said,.

erm because both teams ORIGINATE FROM THE SAME CITY unlike bulls/leeds saints/wigan

The crowd yesterday was fantastic for a testimonial especially when you consider the way the recession has hit Hull compared to other cities. As a previous poster said we all think our own derby games are the best so it is an argument that will never be settled.
