Do you think that with the Sadford Dulls lack of form and poor seasons, That our Derby is now third in superleagues biggest derby's, Or do you think it is still the no1 Derby superleague?

Halifax v Bradford is the biggest derby in the game, unfortunately that may not happen again until the RFL do the right thing and award Halifax the franchise they deserve.

Read my question again!!

Definately 3rd, at the very least. The derby attendance's at Oddsal are shocking. Also the other two Derbys are always too close to call. When Leeds play Bulls I'd comfortably bet my pack of haribos on a Leeds win and not sweat.

I'd say us v Saints and Wigan are much bigger games these days never mind the "Derbies".

Agreed.

This. Although the Hull derby has still got it.

Do the maths:

1 Hull v Hull KR
2 Wigan v Saints
3 Halifax v Bradford.

Wouldn't the biggest SL Derby be the contest that has attracted the biggest aggregate attendance?

No, the biggest Derby is the one you go to and you can feel the hatred in the air.

I never thought I would witness anything close to the Glasgow Celtic v Rangers football derby.

Halifax v Northern (now Bulls) blows it away.

I'm sure it does babes.

Translation I have no life experience so use patronising come backs.

Awww bless.

Each to their own I guess. Mine would be visiting the Boulevard supporting a club that had stolen 'Garry Schofield' ironically to keep their club afloat, although Mr Schofield's attitude to the Hull club before he left probably had something to do with it as well.

How poetically ironic.

cas v fev the biggest of all

I dont think we rank highly with our derby now. With the backwards step of the bulls it comes a long way behind playing the likes of stains, pies or even castleford

The hull derby is the biggest by far no other derby has got anything on the hull derby

Yeap a derby between two avarage side's

Lucky for you that in a year or so you'll be able to watch it twice a season...

A great derby should still be a big game when both sides are average. Leeds v Bradford has become a bit mundane now. It's always a tougher game than it should be, like Cas away, but it doesn't really excite me. In the 2003 - 2005 era it did, because both sides were contesting the big pots, but not now. Hull v Hull KR and Saints v Wigan are bigger derbies for derbies' sake. Leeds v Saints has probably developed into the number 1 needle match over the last few years, purely because of what has tended to be at stake in those games recently.

But suppose Fev win a franchise?

I'm sure it won't be long before Halifax are playing Bulls again....and it won't be in Super League!!

A s poor pathetic [size=2006940[/size fans have pledged to buy a season ticket for £60

Leeds have some of the highest priced tickets in the league, yet will comfortably pass that figure. Reckon Leeds, capacity allowing, would attract 25,000+ pledges for a £60 ticket.

Bradford are going 1 way, and that is down. Crap ground. Crap fans. Crap players.

Halifax can take their place. That would be ironic!!!

Do you think Wakey council could afford three super duper stadiums within 2 miles of each other?
Personally i hope they do get a franchise at the expense of our country bumpkin cousins!

From a fans point of view.. If HKR played any other team the Hull fans would be cheering the other team on to win ..I am lucky a Hull fan lives next door ..Now if it had been a Rovers fan I would have put my house up for sale ..We just don't like each other .."The saying is You are a Hull fan or a Rovers fan NO in between" The next few months we have to put up with the smart Ar-- taking the pi-- ..There is no getting away from it ..That what a Derby mean in Hull
