Never really got the scummer thing - all seems a bit manufactured. The dockers stuff seems a bit of a myth and by most accounts there was no real rivalry until the 80s. Most bitter rivalries are based on class, religion or close proximity but none of those really apply to the Pompey/Scummer thing. Nice to have a bit of fun at their expense but some of the hatred you hear is a bit bizarre. But then I'm from the smoke so probably missing something.
Now Millwall/West Ham - there's a rivalry.
