Template talk:United Kingdom football derbies

nice template, however ive removed sheffield derby, as the main page on this is steel city derby. ive removed south wales derby, as its a red link. finally ive removed new firm, as this is not a local derby. Willy turner 18:25, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Having both The Tyne-Wear and Tyne-Tees derbies is a bit of a cheat, especially as the Tyne-Tees derby article itself disputes whether it is in fact a derby. I'm removing Tyne-Tees on that basis. In order to keep things manageable, I think the criteria for this infobox should be as follows

• Each team should appear only once
• Fans of the two teams in the derby should both regard the other as their biggest rival --Jameboy 08:37, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

• The Birmingham teams derby is rarely referred to as the Birmingham derby, and is most commonly called the "Second City derby" Plkrtn 12:23, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

• ahem, what has happened to the Derby of England, probably the biggest game in english football! El-Nin09 20:16, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

I'd liked to know if the Leicester-Coventry rivalry counts even though it isnt seen as big as the ones already on the template. Thanks.- Helloimhappysunday.

I've made it 'major' derbies to make things easier.Helloimhappysunday.
