      SouthSide Ultras Både du och jag vet att Djurgården är ett lallar gäng med fans som bara tittar när de vinner medan Hammarby inte bryr sig alls om fotboll.
      AIK däremot följer vårt lag i vått och torrt i alla idrotter.
      Tyvärr kan man inte säga samma sak om Bajen.
      Ett exempel är Hammarby ishockey

    Derby Days episodes are so much better now that they're spending a bit more time fleshing out the culture and history of the areas before getting into the football.

      Probably most spectacularly with the Berlin Derby: a whole chunk of it is about how they don't really hate each other because they're usually experiencing opposite fortunes, but the moment they're on a level playing field by the end, the rivalry's really kicking into high gear. About the only one I've seen where the rivals generally still get along no matter what is the Milan one (and to a slightly lesser extent the Cascadia one).

      And we’ve kept more home clean sheets in the league than anybody else.
      Pompey are an actual football club with Real hardcore old school passionate fans and a brilliant atmosphere.

      And Saints don’t care about there fans,
      Pompey do care about the fans.

    Nice video dude. I'm not either, but I have fond memories of Pompey fans in Bradford more than 20 years ago when they came all the way up to Bradford in numbers for the last game of the season. We could have easily beaten them, but we lost 3-1 which led to Man City going down instead. The whole crowd for both ends was singing, "Are you watching Manchester." At the final whistle, the was the usual pitch invasion. The police panicked as we ran towards each other, only for us to start shaking each other's hands. I've never seen the police look so baffled. One of my favorite football memories ever, even though my team lost. Great day.

    Great documentary.
    I grew up between the cities. Went to school in Portsmoth. Still got family there, but I've lived in Southampton for the last 20 years, so I know both cities pretty well.
    Portsmouths is a more working class city. It's got more energy, but it's also the place where you're likely to get the shit kicked out of you by a drunk sailor looking for trouble on a Saturday night.
    Southamptons more relaxed and a little more middle class. Full of students. Or at least most of the areas I know are. But being relaxed is fine by me and it's simply a nicer place to live.

      Good comment. I live in Poole but have worked a lot in Southampton and when I was studying lived around Portsmouth for 3 years.
      I love the Portsmouth people, they are a good laugh but they do get aggressive quickly, you have to watch what you say more. Southampton people on the other hand are more like people from Poole, they're more west country like, more relaxed but can very aggressive if you push them too far. That's of course only a generalisation but it's what I've found being in both cities.

    • @aw2584
      @aw2584 5 лет назад +25

      Kinda similar experience but up to a point. As an immigrant with an outside perspective, portsmouth does have that working class feel and soton seems more middle class and chill, but southampton's, well, slums are waaaay worse than portsmouth ones. Possibly due the fact that Southampton is flooded with immigrants, either way the area near the stadium, literally called st Mary's, is, well... if you don't speak polish or Arabic just don't go there at night. And I grew up in the 90s in poland, near Ukraine, so for me to say an area is rough takes a lot so to speak.

      @@aw2584 I lived a little way north of there near Derby Road for most of the ''90s. The program "immigration street" was filmed just round the corner from me, and I hardly had any problems. But that was before most of the Eastern European immigration. I'd also suspect you haven't interacted with most of the locals - since a lot of the asians in the area are hindus or sikhs and wouldn't know arabic any better than you do (and even the muslim ones would mostly speak Punjabi as a first language)

    • @aw2584
      @aw2584 5 лет назад +2

      Can't say much about how that area was in the 90s since I was born '93, but I'm assuming it changed as much as a neighbourhood can in, well, 30 years. From dealers openly giving you their business cards on the street (although that does happen in the city centre as well to be fair), prostitutes asking if you're 'looking for business, gets rather violent too. As for the Arabic part, my choice for uni was to study Arabic language in Krakow so maybe I've noticed it more simply because I recognised it. It has been few years since I moved out of the good old st Mary's and since then I experienced living around portswood, woolston, shirley and lovely Millbrook but no area was able to provide even 1/10 of the shenanigans derby road area did indeed.
      Just to put things into perspective keep in mind that since the 90s Southampton went from having very few poles living in it to having over 10% of its population speaking polish as their native tongue, and that's just one group, by adding Romanians, Bulgarians, Slovakian, Czechs, Lithuanians etc. To the mix you can safely assume that area, or any area of soton for that matter, is pretty much unrecognizable from what it was back in the days.

Don't go down there looking for trouble, trust me. You think you're hard because you come from from where ever. Before a fight, many people down there can honestly look you in the eye and say, "look mate I'm ex para, special forces, army, navy etc you still wanna go dancing??????"

A friendly, the night ended up in a pitch invasion, running battles around the ground and the city and cars set on fire. At a testimonial! That's the sort of depth of the rivalry. Supporting Pompey is an absolute emotional rollercoaster from the depths of despair to the height of triumph and everything in between. You never know what's next. Supporting stains is about all the excitement of wandering round IKEA on a Sunday afternoon.

    Ok, I'm a sunderland fan and the only ground that comes close to roker park in terms of atmosphere, passion etc., is fratton park. In my eyes roker park and fratton park are just as famous and iconic as the likes of Anfield, old Trafford etc. I love going to fratton park cos it reminds me of roker park so much, and I'm sure a lot of Pompeys older fans will remember roker park with fond memories too.

    I lived down that area and found the people from both areas funny and friendly, even though I have got a London accent. This is an excellent piece of work and really enjoyed watching it.

    Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. There is life in Copa 90 after all.

    These episodes are more history class than football. I love it!
