One sided local derbies

It seems that most of the famous derbies only have maybe a 10 or 11 game win difference at worst. Millwall have won 24 more games then us which is insane, and in the world of football must be some kind of anomaly. As far as I know even our derbies against the nigels and most other London teams of a similar size to us are far more even (maybe not Fulham).

    Christ, I think we've managed to win once at Highbury and once at the Cameldome since then too.

    So have just gone through some of the obvious Derbies from the below link...

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sports_rivalries_in_the_United_Kingdom#Central

    Only one game is worse than ours which is pretty understanding between the gulf in money that Chelsea (they've won 41 times) have compared to Fulham (have only won on nine occasions)

    You've then got the following games which have just one or two games in it...

    Brentford (21) v QPR (22)
    Peterborough (11) v Cambridge (10)
    Rochdale (15) v Bury (16)
    Blackburn Rovers (38) v Burnley (36)
    Bolton Wanderers (12) v Wigan Athletic (13)
    Chesterfield (25) v Mansfield (26)
    Stoke (16) v Port Vale (13)

    And even the rest there isnt much between the sides:

    Everton (57) v Liverpool (75)
    Man City (44) v Man Utd (61)
    Arsenal (64) v Tottenham (50)
    Sunderland (47) v Newcastle (51)
    Watford (25) v Luton (32)
    West Ham (8) v Millwall (5)
    Crystal Palace (32) v Brighton (35)
    Oxford (11) v Swindon (21)
    Norwich (32) v Ipswich (35)
    Colchester (23) v Southend (27)
    Cardiff (19) v Swansea (21)
    Portsmouth (8) v Southampton (14)
    Bristol City (24) v Bristol Rovers (34)
    Preston North End (38) v Blackpool (30)
    Sheffield Wednesday (36) v Sheffield United (42)
    Huddersfield (18) v Oldham Athletic (10)
    Accrington (15) v Morcambe (4)
    Birmingham (36) v Aston Villa (45)
    Coventry (23) v Leicester (36)
    Nottingham Forest (35) v Notts County (28)
    Nottingham Forest (36) v Derby County (32)

    In the last 20 years we've played palace 14 times, in which they've only won twice. Prior to that they had a really good spell v us. Ten or so years they seemed to beat us every time we played, usually by some flukey goal when we had totally dominated. It was during this period I developed my ingrained hatred for all things stripey.

    The last 4 seasons we've played Millwall we've had 1 defeat and 1 draw each time. So a draw in a few weeks time looks nailed on.

    Well at least we won't be the worst as i can't imagine Espanyol or Torino do too well v Barca and Juve.

    However for sides on a relatively level playing field, it's simply bizarre how our record is so bad.

    Aside from Kim grant in the snow and John Hendry at Upton park, i can't think of too many other victories i've seen v them.
