It tends to usually be celtic or rangers in scotland. You never seem to hear of any supporters of small clubs like montrose or berwick. is there any out there?
Well saying I live in Newcastle, Born in Newcastle and bleed newcastle plus the fact I have been to matches since i was 4 monthes old gives me the right!!!!!!!! The celtic and rangers fans are from all over scotland. Your from Belfast for feks sake! ------------------ Toon Toon Black and White Army
In N. Ireland, we don't really have much of a choice. It's Rangers or Celtic mainly due to the politics etc. Imagine being the sole Celtic supporter at a mainly Protestant school or the only Rangers supporter at a Catholic school? It's what you are born into over here. Tho I know of a couple of Hearts fans over here and a Morton fan!!
I LIKE TO SEE PARTICK THISTLE DOING WELL! I WENT ON HOLIDAY A FEW YEARS AGO TO MAJORCA AND THERE WAS A PUB WE ALLWAYS DRANK IN THAT WAS DEDICATED TO PARTICK! SINCE THEN I HAVE LOOKED OUT FOR THEIR RESULTS! ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://www.bloodybritain.com/monkeyindiana.JPG" border=0><IMG SRC="http://www.euronail.de/saga/images/reid/reid-small.jpg" border=0>PETER REID'S GOT A ****ING MONKEY'S HEED!
They are about 100 points clear in their division as well. Only a few years ago they were in the scottish premier and now are in div 2. Soon be back to div 1 i feel.
its the same in scotland as it is in N.I. It is not where you live, it's more what you are. Many of you English don't seem to understand.
I am a Ross County supporter. And it is not what you believe in which affects Old Firm fans. It is being a glory hunter. Religion is just some stupid excuse, altho is another reason to ban religion. So to all the Old Firm bigots who are simply up for a fight & not football, stay away from Dingwall tomorrow evening please.
Sorry Cam, as much as it seems daft, it is a way of life in Northern Ireland - you follow follow the crowd and so it will go on no matter what anyone says.
hey cam, just because were from the BIG CITY doesnt mean we're all violent nutters. Although that is MOSTLY true of some areas, like the east end... and isnt it possible that Rangers and Celtic have large supports because they are based in a large catchment area? I know of course there are others who follow Rangers or Celtic due to success and/or religion, but even without those people we'd still have larger fanbases than anyone else - and I am one of those catchment area'd people too!
Perhaps it's not glory hunting maybe some people prefer not to stand in a shit ground watching shit teams play shit football, just because they are from the area
I follow Celtic because I'm Catholic and my Priest Supports them!!! He was the one who Baptised be anyhow so I follow them...At last the title coming away from Ibrox...Ha ha....Celtic spent about 20 million less as well...Martin O Neil godly manger...! ------------------ True blue who hates thy shite
