If you weren't attempting to make a comparison, then I don't know why you mentioned those rivalries, which are all huge and have a major historical basis in terms of the competition between the clubs involved.

Better examples would have been Manchester City and Bury, or Manchester United and Oldham, or Arsenal and Barnet, or Liverpool and Tranmere.
