Might be worth leaving soccer out... the list is almost endless...any town/city with more than one team for starters...
Hibs v Hearts
Man Utd v City
Sheff Wed v Utd
In 6 Nations Rugby Union
Everybody v Wales (never found anyone who knows why but we all hate the shaggers

it's traditional...probably a class thing)
Everybody v England (it's a history thing Agincourt, Highland clearances, the whole Ireland thing etc etc etc)

The SA state side wore the black and white, then someone from Collingwood saw us wear it and thought that the bird was a magpie and stole it.

Do they play in harder in their home guernsey?
