I wasn’t at either of those games, but I did go to the friendly in 2017. I am biased, but there is definitely a friendly relationship with Rangers. The atmosphere was phenomenal that day, and I often find myself on YouTube watching highlights of the crowd! I’ve promised mates I’ll take them to Hillsborough, if we play again. They want to wear their Rangers tops though! I know a few Celtic/Wednesday fans and im one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers was more friendly with fans swapping scarves at the end think It was 2-2 after being 2-0 up typical WEDNESDAY Di canio got plenty of stick that night also remember a WEDNESDAY fan wearing a Celtic shirt & the coppers telling him to take it off . Anyone else go to one or both these games ? Yeah I think it was a Saturday afternoon before Celtic Park was rebuilt and im sure Chris Morris was playing for Celtic. I can’t remember as I spent most of the afternoon looking for bricks to throw at passing busses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the Rangers fans for you and they also beat up the poor guy that pushes the Cancer Charity barrow for wearing a green wig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair got talking to some Rangers fans in town and they were very friendly and we had a good laugh with them. I also went to the Celtic game for the weekend and I have never meet such friendly fans. We went in to some real dives of pubs (if you can call them that more like huts). Soon as they heard our accents, which we tried to hide as we were pooing ourselves they invited us over for a chat and drinks flowed. I have never seen so many drunken fans either saw them literally falling off coaches and laid in the street. It was the same at night, round the pubs people just wanted to chat where ever we went. Had a great time. I wonder if the OP has an ulterior motive Woods got dogs abuse but Di Canio only got plenty of stick? Apologies if I have misread your words. One of the beauties of Sheffield, South yorkshire and England is that we have stemmed the religious hatred in our communities. Let Glasgow bask in the glory that they live in a city where they hate their neighbour for no other reason than they follow a different interpretation of a fictitious book. Let them keep their poison we don't need it here. Celtic is not about religion mate, Celtic fans are a mixture of all faiths. We do not discriminate anyone’s religion. Celtic fans are Political and are not sectarian. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither set of fans are angels, but Celtic fans are brainwashed in certain ideologies from a very young age. Just look at the angelic “Green Brigade”.

Is this the same Green Brigade that’s fundraising for the NHS and regular food banks drive donators? Because Celtic fans are mostly left wing and Political they certainly help all members of society if they need help. Don’t confuse politics with sectarian bigotry.

Maybe not a good choice of songs to sing in Scotland. Agreed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
