Quote: Odemwingie "One is the most succesful club in history, the other is the modern day giant.
They have competed in some of the most important games together.
Pretty much every game is a great watch.
Great crowds.
Most of the greatest players of all time have played in the derby.'"


1) Fair enough
2) important for Wigan/Saints fans, signifigantly less so for anyone else
3) As per most derbies.
4) Most? thats one hell of a claim.

Nope, you'll hear it said in retirement homes across the borough too.

Maybe one of your carers has worked in Wigan?

the saints / wigan derby has the benefit of 2 clubs who have been very succesful collectively over 20 years. both also having long stints at the top level (both being in division 1/ SL for ages)

the hull derby has FC having average top level form, with its best result being the CC final win.

KR have been in division one (ie NL1) for ages and only now are building into a decent SL side

when was the last time they played a really good derby game ? the CC final in the 80s

the Hull derby can only get better as the 2 clubs get stronger.
