    You are right it isn't a derby. I know there is a lot of tensions on the Rangers-Celtic match. The old firm has more than just football history. That being said there are other thing that make your match more exiting. It is more old style British football, even more than in the Premier league itself. Kick and rush so to speak. That isn’t the way the game is played here. The old firm is played more with the heart than with the mind, where Dutch football is more a tactical/technical. I'll admit that the old firm is more exciting most of the time, but that doesn't mean the football is better. If the PSV-Ajax match is played with dare it offers a more beautiful match than the Celtic-Ranger game. Unfortunately the forward play and position game need top form from most of the players. Because both teams have a similar basic notion (with a few differences) they can level each other out.
    I don’t think you will necessarily agree, but that is the way I see it. I like the old firm, but I prefer PSV-Ajax or Barca-Real.
    I think we have the 'biggest' derby and the biggest rivals in football. Thats what i think. When i said that on here i was told no, everyone thinks that about their own derby. But all i've heard since is about how boring everyone else's derby is so i was just making my point again :)
    And i agree with mostly all you said.

    I have never said that our derby is bigger than the old firm. I have only said that Milan-Inter and Barca-Real are very big as well. The old firm is a great match to watch, I meant what I said as perspective not disrespect.

    Our derby is much bigger, the old firm is nowhere if you have seen PSV - Eindhoven.

    Oh I like it better than the old firm, But I do think The old firm has a bigger reputation and that is rightly so in my book. The British game is easier to play well than the Dutch style of play, but if ours works you have the best match to watch. However everything has to fall in it's place and that is difficult with two teams that have the same philosophy (more or less)

    Hey you have one match that isn't boring, but the rest of the league well that is a different story. I think I'll stick with the Dutch league if you don't mind.

    HAHA It was 50 i counted to. Well you don't know something is boring if you don't watch it.
    But it don't bother me, i'm a Rangers fan i watch every single game and none of them are ever boring.
    Aberdeen V Rangers is one of my fave games, also Hibs V Hearts is never boring but ah well

    I have seen the table these last 18 years and I saw other clubs beside Rangers and Celtic play. There is a big gab between that duo and the rest. And the footbal the other teams play isn't watchable. Or as we say in Dutch: Niet om aan te gleuren.

    I was aware of what you said earlier Klumpie. I tried to say it differently, and still say what I had to say.

    I do wonder AV what it is that you agree on as you said. Anyway Rangers is a cool team.

    Oh yeah I still think the SPL is weaker then the dutch one, but the last 5 years the dutch league is completely depending on the good results of PSV in Europe. If PSV will have a fall down, it's to hope that Feyenoord, Ajax or AZ will do better otherwise we will go as low as the SPL. Not that the SPL is a really weak competition, but we can do better.
