Growing up in Northern Ireland you either follow one of two teams Celtic or Rangers. To be honest I was brought up with nothing but hatred for Rangers and we used to burn union jacks and Rangers tops every 9th Aug. not so much into the hatred anymore unlike the majority of the so called Celtic fans who only follow the team when we playing Rangers. Every spare minute I have is spent watching Celtic videos on you tube or reading the latest news on many different sports websites. At the moment I am thinking about getting a Celtic badge tatotted onto my sholder…..only thing is that mite get me into trouble in the future.

Growing up in The Six Counties, you either follow Celtic,Huns,Man Utd,Liverpool or Aesnal in the main. I also know sizeable numbers who follow Spurs,Chelsea,Everton and, strangely, West Ham. I was brought up in a Celtic family where i learned to love The Hoops.I was never brainwashed to "hate" anyone and this is true of all Celtic fans i know locally. A few bad apples, like everywhere, i grant you, but my fear is that your post will be misinterpreted and taken as accurate reflection on the average Hoops fan here when, in my opinion, nothing could be further from the truth.

i follow Celtic mainly because i like to help pay for a club for you Irish hangers on, seeing as how all your own clubs are pish.

Sympathy card again, works a treat.
