Quote: Sheepridge Giant "Didn't we get a rivalry going with Doncaster in the late 80's as both Fartown & Donny had started to get their act together around that time.Recall playing Donny in a midweek cup game & then the league the following weekend at ours (or could have been t'other way around) Big numbers of Dons fans in blue and amber turned up to both fixtures.Didn't fans fave Gary Coulter have a fall out with Fartown and ended up laking for t'Dons,which caused a bit of a stir.
Also got a rivalry with Oldham at one stage,around late 80's time,but always seemed to lose to them.'"
was more an on field rivalry with doncaster,as you say we both started picking up around the same time,i remember an easter monday game at tattersfield with a big following from fartown.
as for the wakefield thing,again,was an on field rivalry,nothing to do with traditional derby games but some people became very bitter about our club which led to some animosity which still exists at belle vue today.
