Is Boro a derby?


Not that different then , really.
9 more than you in 2nd tier
Less than half your total in the third tier
One trophy each ( unless you're very VERY old).
Plus we've played loads more European matches than you.

Not having a go - just saying both our performances in a long time now haven't been that different (or decent)

😁😁
You should be honoured mate.
Getting called a mag and a Boro fan on this forum

Ill be a monkey hanger tomorrow
 
Question to the Boro fans; Do you consider us or the Mags as your ‘Derby’? Or is it both? I’ve never seen Boro as a Derby really, but that’s probably because I’ve never lived or worked amongst any Boro fans probably. I’ve always thought we both had more in common, than the Mags 🤷🏼‍♂️
boro fan here and for me, its Sunderland number 1 Leeds number 2 and Newcastle a distant number 3 don't really give a monkeys about the mags.
 
When I was born Boro was in North Yorkshire officially. I personally do think it's a Derby game. 30 miles away. I actually don't mind Boro. The Geordies I don't like. However to me it's a Derby. So is Hartlepool and Darlo if we played them
What's the thoughts?

No for Sunderland.
Yes for Boro.
 
24 pages of people mostly saying it's not and saying they don't care at all, probably proves it is. 🤣🤣🤣
That doesn't equate to being 'conspicuous by our absence ' though does it?

That coincided with us going down into the third tier - we bounced straight back up (double promotions I fact), did you on your last visit to league one ?
Even North Yorkshire disowns them.
Just like County Durham disowns Sunderland you mean?

Now you're being proper daft.

I'm from County Durham marra.

Read this properly, I think it is a derby. Just not the derby.

You banging on like you are, just kind of confirms your feelings of inferiority.

Biggest league game of the season for you.

A game with a bit more of an edge for us.

Deal with it man ffs. 😁
 
Bit sad imo

Not a derby cos we're git massive in comparison

In reality because some can only cope with / secretly crave attention from the Mags

That and "Yorkshire - that place down south"
