Reds and Rams: A Story of the East Midlands Derby is the tale of
one of the most fiercely fought football rivalries in the world.
Hewed from the Victorian industrial revolution, Nottingham Forest
and Derby County have contested league games for 130 years. Ever
since the 1898 FA Cup Final, the rivalry has ebbed and flowed, with
each club enjoying both periods of sustained success and
existential threat. The reasons for this deep-rooted antipathy are
numerous, yet ultimately it boils down to two football clubs
similar in stature, size, history and geography existing cheek by
jowl. In essence, they are like two teenage siblings bickering
about anything and everything. Throughout, they have traded
managers and players, producing deep and lasting enmity. Derby is
renowned for its railways, Nottingham for Robin Hood. Each city has
its own proud identity and history. The only thing they have ever
agreed on is the genius of Brian Clough.
