The ex Chelsea defender = Anthony Barness

[Guybrush]

Nathan Blake.
Abdoulaye Meite.

[The Merse]

Scott Sellars is the one who was at Leeds too.

[The Merse]

Branaghan the keeper though didn't think he was Irish
Jimmy Phillips was at 'gers, though I remember playing left mid more in 97/98.
Chris Fairclough for the Sheff Utd defender? He was definitely Leeds and County, and was a Cloughie kid so Mansfiel sounds right place for him to end up?

Four Zero Two placed Arsenal vs Tottenham as the 20th biggest football derby in the world. There were 50 games on the list. Can you name them all?

*a derby match is against your nearest and most-hated opponents
*club teams only
*no team appears twice

Man Red v Man Blue

If Man Blue have made it on against Liverpool then the list should be disregarded and the offices of its producer razed to the ground.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Colombia has a tasty one between Millonarios and some other team who are presumably not millonarios.

Al Ahly - Zamalek must be there too.

Nacional - Peñarol in U.r.gay
Benfica - Sporting
Sparta Prague - Slavia Prague

The Indian one is in Bengal but I can't remember the team names.

Gor Mahia - AFC Leopards is a big one in Kenya but I doubt that will make it on.

[niko_cee]

Ajax v Feyenoord?

It's a little thing but I'm sure a Partizan fan would be losing their shit at the way you've written that one.

There must be about 100 Moscow teams so I'll take a stab at CSKA v Spartak.

[Disco]

Ajax / Feyenoord for the Dutch one.

[niko_cee]

Brighton v Crystal Palace, obvs.

Chelsea v West Ham? Or West Ham v Millwall?

[Disco]

Isn't PSG / Marseille one of the big French ones?

Mohun Bagan? Reading Vic Flange stories finally paying off.

[niko_cee]

I wasn't aware anyone had any particularly strong feelings about PSG, including the people of Paris/their fans.

I reckon if there's a big/violent rivalry going in France then St Etienne must be involved in some capacity.

Good job I don't give a fuck about some partizan fan

Dynamo Moscow vs Spartak Moscow

[niko_cee]

Yeah, but you've basically written Partizan/Red Star Belgrade v Red Star Belgrade you numpty.

Please don't let the dutch one be Ajax v PSV .

Galatasaray - Fenerbache

[Jimmy Floyd]

Must be a few more English ones on there. Newcastle - Sunderland?

I seem to remember Djurgarden and AIK being a big deal in Sweden.

Seattle v Portland? I feel dirty for suggesting that.

Ferencvaros - MTK
Copenhagen - Brondby
Olympiakos - Panathinaikos
Steaua - Dinamo (Bucharest)
Hearts - Hibs

And no one seems to have said Fenerbahce v Galatasaray, which stops the world.
