Every Major Football Rivalry In The UK Ranked From 'Pure Hatred' To 'Abysmal' In Controversial List

Every major football rivalry in the United Kingdom has been ranked from 'Pure Hatred' to 'Abysmal - with only two being named in the top tier.

Twitter user @LowerTiers quite frankly, chose violence and decided to give a verdict on the tastiest encounters on the footballing calendar.

In their opinion, only Celtic vs Rangers and Birmingham City vs Aston Villa can count as a rivalry born out of 'Pure Hatred'.

They face each other what feels like at least five times a year but there's no denying Celtic vs Rangers is a true spectacle.

Fuelled by political and religious disagreement, the Old Firm remains a fixture that guarantees fireworks.

Birmingham vs Villa, meanwhile, can also get very ugly as years of tension can build up between their encounters.

Villa have only spent three seasons outside the Premier League since it began while Birmingham haven't been in the top-flight for a decade.

The last time they met, then Villa star Jack Grealish was assaulted by a fan on the pitch which takes things way too far.

Manchester United vs Liverpool is also chosen as 'Great Viewing' compared to United vs Manchester City, which comes in at 'Average'.

United make a third appearance on the list and their bad blood with Leeds United is considered 'Abysmal'.

Check out the entire TierMaker below:

Pure Hatred: Celtic vs Rangers, Birmingham City vs Aston Villa

Great Viewing: Bristol City vs Bristol Rovers, Newcastle United vs Sunderland, Portsmouth vs Southampton, Arsenal vs Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United vs Liverpool, Sheffield United vs Sheffield Wednesday, West Ham United vs Millwall
