tyne wear derby is a total waste of time. want to put pins in my eyes. its such a terrible game virtually all the time.

The Merseyside derby has had lots of goals in it Mr C, mostly for us though, Everton's record is awful in the past decade really.

So great for us but not for others I guess

Its too friendly Carra....blue standing next to red in the stands, with blue generously bending over and taking it from red on the pitch.

Look it is difficult to compare the NW 'Derby' with the NLD. Liverpool v Utd has traditionally been between the 2 biggest clubs in England with the best players so is often a tight affair with few goals. Whereas the NLD (like the Everton v Liverpool derby and until recently Utd v City ) is usually one where a more successful side, in this case Arsenal, play a local rival who is below then in the table and looks at the game as a one-off opportunity to get one over their dominant rivals. This is not an anti-Spurs dig btw just (in my view) a historical fact supported by superior trophy cabinets.

With regards to whether the NLD is a better game for the viewing public I'd say yes as it usually shows 2 teams who like to attack each other and who ordinarily do not try and cancel each other out

The friendly derby???

I worked in Liverpool for 4 years and they hated each other.

Yeah that game was mental altogether very entetaining for the neutral though

Heart Prediction? 4-1 'Pool

Head Prediction ? 2-2

Pessimistic outlook makes me think Utd win.

I HAVE NO IDEA! in general I mean, not just about the game!

Quite rightly. Hope the players remember that feeling

If Pool win they will push us down to 4th place .... just because we didn't beat WBA.
So I'm hoping United win .... gotta put a dent in Klopfever!

The media over hyping and wannkkk fest of `Deadhead Monday` has been incessant all day long, the way the media are hyping up this clash of two huge spending fallen giants, you would think it was a title decider.

In reality it may well decide who finishes 6th or 7th, yet the tiresome media act like its the biggest game of the season.

It`s just another game and I really don`t care who wins, either side could equally come out on top due to some favourable refereeing, it`s a tossup who the ref will be favouring in this game.

I predict a Pool win though,and shall be investing a few quid on them.

The atmosphere sounds awful on TV! Genuinely can't remember any NLD at The Lane being this quiet.

They're all asleep that's why. £350m or whatever spent by United in 3 years yet they still play defensively 😴
