philpy Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Just Been looking at the possible teams for next season, and there will be a good few possible Derby games, which will be good. Raith vs pars Falkirk vs pars (maybe) St Mirren vs Morton Dumbarton vs Morton Ayr vs Killie (maybe) Killie vs Stranraer (maybe) Nothing really for Dundee Utd, but with no Edinburgh Derby either. Still, at least raith, Dunfermline, and possibly Falkirk will be close enough for them. And I'm sure a few of those games would be shown live.

Jan Vojáček Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Dumbarton v Morton ain't really a Derby to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Stranraer is 65 miles from Kilmarnock. You can get to Tynecastle quicker than you can get to Stair Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkgatequeens Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I see Ayr or Killie a much bigger and better Derby than a game against Stranraer, bring it on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamamafegan Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Really hope we get Ayrshire derbies next season, they should be televised as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callum-ayr Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Was having a discussion with some mates on Wednesday at the game on derbies in Scotland and what was ranked as the best. You obviously have Celtic v Rangers and Hearts v Hibs as the top 2, then who would you rank after that? Dundee v Dundee Utd and Ayr v Killie would be my next 2, not in any order. Seen a few St Mirren v Morton games in the league and cup over the past few years and they don't seem to be able to attract 5000-6000+ which is disappointing, thought it was a lot bigger than that.

Are you seriously suggesting Ayr and Killie are fourth in the Derby pecking order. I disagree wholeheartedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Flash Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 When was the last time there was a league season without both the Edinburgh and Dundee derbies? Was it 1981? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callum-ayr Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Are you seriously suggesting Ayr and Killie are fourth in the Derby pecking order. I disagree wholeheartedly. In terms of crowd pull and rivalry, it would be top 4/5 for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 The top three derbies are obvious, then pretty much everyone is going to think theirs is the 4th. Raith v Pars, St Mirren v Morton and Falkirk v Pars are all about the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baillieinleeds Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 In terms of crowd pull and rivalry, it would be top 4/5 for me. I do agree with that though. From 4th down all the clubs in the major towns region we're all of a similar size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
