Rangers!!

Why are there such close ties between Liverpool and Celtic when the former is protestant and the latter Catholic?

My parents are from Tipperary and nearly everyone there supports Celtic & Liverpool. Everton are the real Catholic team on Merseyside.

There isn't really a connection between celtic and liverpool, alot of people think there is because of the "You'll Never Walk Alone" anthem, and maybe because of the Kenny Dalglish connection. I think alot of Irish people tend to support Celtic and a premiership team, whether it be Liverpool, Manchester United or Newcastle. I think Man City have got a big Irish following too, though I may be wrong. I would say that Celtic don't really have close links with any English team, except maybe teams with ex-players etc.

It's natural for Celtic fans to connect with certain teams where there is a significant Irish diaspora. Manchester and Liverpool being the obvious examples.

i've had to educate jonny on this before............try telling anyone who supported celtic or liverpool that there was no connection between the clubs in may 89.......

nearly every red i know "follows" celtic, myself included.
 
he's a cracker mate, im just laughing with joy as i support the other team in Glasgow and we are delighted to see him go ..... ;)

Im just glad we have a few more bodies on board.. was thinking of taking my boots down sunday , i might get a shirt!!!
 
FACT.

of all the away support tucked into the corner of White Hart Lane, I have to say, Newcastle, Man City, Liverpool rank among the most vocal to visit. especially when theres less than 1000.

Man Utds "support" is woeful and they only wake up when they're winning. (oft chanting that monotonous "United.... United.... United...." - such a creative bunch.

we only sing when we're winning?...18 years is a long time to be singing:lol:
