Chester Wrexham is similar to ours but with lot less fans involved, isnt Burnley v Blackburn fiesty aswell normally a bubble game? All other derbies the fans mix as either in same city or local areas to each other so no segregation until game starts. :old:

i was at 3 london derbys last season unvolving WHU {twice} Spurs {twice } Arsenal and Millwall..no RV point..no bubble...no numbers restrictions...there was a very high police presence at all 3 games but away fans arrived by all means of transport at various points and drank in local pubs { all be it guided to certain pubs and watched over by OB }.whens the last time Cardiff fans had a pint in Swansea on a match day.?

This for me sums it up perfectly. We as Cardiff fans should be able to make our own way to the Liberty by bus, train or car. Until this happens I believe that the South Wales derby should be regarded as the fiercest and most volatile with more potential for serious disorder than any other derby in Britain. Ask S.W.P.

i think SWP have painted themselves into a corner over the bubbles..the minute they stop them the smallest of incidents will send the media into a frenzy with a large portion of blame heading their way for not insisting on a bubble..
