==Production career==
===Inter-city rivalry===
Rudolf has worked with many artists as either a producer, writer or guitarist.

The rivalry can be considered as a manifestation of one which already had existed between the two cities since industrial times. During this time both were competing with each other for supremacy of the north-west, with [[Manchester]] famous for its manufacturing prowess while [[Liverpool]] was famous for the importance of its port.<Ref>{{cite web | url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/6956608.stm | title=Scouse v Manc | date=[[2007-08-21]] | work=[[BBC News]] | publisher=[[BBC]] | author=Rohrer, Finlo | accessdate=2008-04-03}}</ref> Once the [[Manchester Ship Canal]] was built, ships could bypass Liverpool, and transport goods directly into Manchester. Both the crests of [[Manchester United]] and [[Manchester City]] display a ship representing the canal. During the time since, the two cities had been in decline but have been ascending rapidly over recent years.
Recently, Manchester hosted the [[2002 Commonwealth Games|2002]] [[Commonwealth Games]], while Liverpool has been awarded the title of 2008 [[European Capital of Culture]].

Manchester United however have a chance to take their tally of honours to 54 by the end of the current calendar year of 2008 - with their win in the [[2008 FA Community Shield]], the club will also be involved in the forthcoming [[FIFA Club World Cup]] in December following the club's [[UEFA Champions League]] win. If Manchester United go on to win the [[Premier League]] at the end of the [[Premier League 2008-09| 2008-09]] season then they will equal Liverpool's record of 18 League championship wins which has stood as a record in England since 1990.

==Player transfers==

The rivalry between the two clubs has become so intense that since the 1964 transfer of [[Phil Chisnall]] from United to Liverpool, no player has been transferred since.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/liverpool-fc/liverpool-fc-news/2007/07/06/the-day-that-phil-crossed-the-great-divide--100252-19412368/|publisher=[[Liverpool Echo]]|title=The day that Phil crossed the great divide!|date=[[2007-07-06]]|accessdate=2007-07-09}}</ref> Some players however have played for both clubs, but having played elsewhere between each tenure, such as [[Paul Ince]] and [[Peter Beardsley]].

In 2007 there was an attempted transfer of [[Gabriel Heinze]] from United to Liverpool, but United refused to allow him to join their biggest rivals because it was agreed he would only join a foreign club.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.thesoccerblog.org/premiership/liverpool-eyeing-heinze/|publisher=''thesoccerblog.org''|title=Liverpool Eyeing Heinze|date=[[2007-07-03]]|accessdate=2007-07-09}}</ref> Heinze eventually joined [[Real Madrid]] instead.

"North West derby", "North-West derby", and "Northwest derby" redirect here. For the football rivalry involving Derry City and Finn Harps see Northwest Derby (Ireland).

The Liverpool - Manchester United fixture is one of the most significant sporting rivalries in football[citation needed]. Both clubs hail from the North West of England, they are also the two most successful teams in England, between them they have won 74 major trophies. The fixture is usually played at midday, due to both media (TV) interest and to discourage fans from drinking before the game. Long-term Manchester United player Ryan Giggs says that Liverpool against Manchester United is "the most famous fixture in English football".[1]

Roots

Inter-city rivalry

The rivalry can be considered as a manifestation of one which already had existed between the two cities since industrial times. During this time both were competing with each other for supremacy of the north-west, with Manchester famous for its manufacturing prowess while Liverpool was famous for the importance of its port.[2] Once the Manchester Ship Canal was built, ships could bypass Liverpool, and transport goods directly into Manchester. Both the crests of Manchester United and Manchester City display a ship representing the canal. During the time since, the two cities had been in decline but have been ascending rapidly over recent years. Recently, Manchester hosted the 2002 Commonwealth Games, while Liverpool has been awarded the title of 2008 European Capital of Culture.

Football rivalry

Both clubs claim the title of 'the Greatest English Football Club', with Liverpool winning a total of 58 trophies, while Manchester United have 53. Liverpool dominated English football during the 1970s and 1980s, claiming the league title eleven times and the European Cup on four occasions during that period. Manchester United have been the most successful English team of the 1990s and 2000s, winning ten league titles, two Doubles, The Treble (of the European Cup, the Premiership and the FA Cup) in 1999 and The European Double of the Premier League and European Cup in 2008. Both clubs are also the two most successful English sides in European competition, with Liverpool having been European champions 5 times, and Manchester United 3 times.

As well as competing on the football pitch, both teams are also two of the biggest-earning clubs in the world, based on revenue.[3] The two also have among the largest fanbases in England and internationally.

Team League Title FA Cup League Cup FA Community Shield European Cup UEFA Cup Cup Winners Cup European Supercup Intercontinental Cup / World Clubs Championship Total
Liverpool 18 7 7 15 5 3 0 3 0 58
Manchester United 17 11 2 17 3 0 1 1 1 53
Combined 35 18 9 32 8 3 1 4 1 111
Table correct as of August 29, 2008

Manchester United however have a chance to take their tally of honours to 54 by the end of the current calendar year of 2008 - with their win in the 2008 FA Community Shield, the club will also be involved in the forthcoming FIFA Club World Cup in December following the club's UEFA Champions League win. If Manchester United go on to win the Premier League at the end of the 2008-09 season then they will equal Liverpool's record of 18 League championship wins which has stood as a record in England since 1990.

Player transfers

The rivalry between the two clubs has become so intense that since the 1964 transfer of Phil Chisnall from United to Liverpool, no player has been transferred since.[4] Some players however have played for both clubs, but having played elsewhere between each tenure, such as Paul Ince and Peter Beardsley.

In 2007 there was an attempted transfer of Gabriel Heinze from United to Liverpool, but United refused to allow him to join their biggest rivals because it was agreed he would only join a foreign club.[5] Heinze eventually joined Real Madrid instead.
