| In many countries the term local derby, or simply just derby, means a sporting fixture between two local rivals.
The term is sometimes also misused to describe major rivalries in which both clubs have substantial regional or national followings.
The first Para is the Hull derby as both team are local due to been from the same city.
Second para is saints / wigan derby. (IE the terminology is misused as your followings are regional and not split within a city (locality))

| Sure, that's why we've sold out and you didn't.

| Quote: those were the days "Your right because why is it that every time the hull derby is played they have to kick off at 1pm or earlier to try and stop trouble could you imagine the hull derby kicking off at 8pm thats at least 9 hours of drinking if the pubs open at 11am.'"
Because it's the biggest derby and the same reason football's biggest derby kicks off at a similar time!!!
I think Att will prove that.

And our's would be 24,800 (like City get) if the stupid rules re unreserved seating etc weren't put in place for us!

| Quote: jonh "As a Wigan fan i would have to say Hull v Hull KR.
Our Saints game and Leeds v Bradford have been pretty average to poor over the last few years generally, with 1 sided contests and not much for either the Wigan or Bradford fans to get excited about.
If we can get competative again and consistently make it an occasion rather than a wash out then there is only 1 answer, but at the moment i have to give it to the East Yorkshire clubs in my opinion.'"
and your view after last night?
