I thought liverpool was the catholic team?
Old John Houlding was an Orangeman, I believe.
So are most people girls in Liverpool these days.
What was all that about? Eighties terrace fashion - half rangers and half celtic hats. It wasnt even as if we played them - at least that explains the Milan, Juve and Chelsea scarves that are common these days.
I thought the 'Rangers Celtic' shout was one of ours songs. I used to sing both 'Rangers' and 'Celtic'...
That was what I was getting at.
Ah balls, self-whooshed
My mum always said in the 70's the catholic people in liverpool were red and the everton people protestant.Im a strict catholic
Emlyn, you were a very bad influence on my younger brother in Barcelona! I don't know what you gave him but he was a nuisance the entire day, have banned him from Eindhoven!
CELTIC, RANGERS. CELTIC, RANGERS. CELTIC, RANGERS. CELTIC, RANGERS. CELTIC, RANGERS. CELTIC, RANGERS. CELTIC, RANGERS. LIVERPOOL, LIVERPOOL, LIVERPOOL, LIVERPOOL..................................
Ah balls, self-washed
With the odd "Stenhousemuir" thrown in!
I was well pleased when the 'half n half' bobble hats came out in the 80s. Complimented perfectly the 70s silk scarf tied around my wrist.All the young dudes, indeed!
I agree that religion has never been a major factor but you are not quite right in your geography. Scotland Road was the Irish catholic area of Liverpool, but the top of the hill around Netherfield Road was a real Orange area and it is this area that is closest to Liverpool.
Irish sectarianism is soooooooooooo out of fashion Albanian sectarianism is where it's at
Everton were formed as part of St Domingo's, which sounds pretty catholic to me. Also Liverpool is quite close to Netherfield Road which until recently was a really staunch loyalist/orange area.
And hopefully the three star jumper half way up your back.
True . Just listen to a lot of our songs to.
Nah, it was more Liiiiiiiiiiiiiib-pooooooooooool.
it was about the hap, cap or scarf man getting his stock fucked up in china and using his brain ,created a secterian sensation and then retired to spain with the profits.
