Not in Fife in the mainly prodi Council Estate where I was brought up, 1690 and knowing the words to the Sash before you learn to walk was more the thing. Hence a few of us non-prodis who survived this still cross ourselves to annoy the Huns every time Celtic score when in the pub and my best mate (best man at his wedding) will not step in my car as it looks suspiciously Rangers Blue.
There is a bar about 300m from me now where I live - I can't go in as it's where the Huns bus leaves from and if I went in all eyes would be glaring at me and I'd have to show my ex-UDF card and give the Barman a Mason's handshake to be even allowed to buy a drink. Sectarianism is alive and well in Scotland. Last edited by Claymores; 08-04-2010 at 07:54 PM. |

Its quite funny that Good King Billy was in fact supported by Pope Alexander VIII and the Catholic Emporer Leopold of Austria Last edited by Shasown; 08-04-2010 at 07:59 PM. |

Yes.
Wombai, this must be the first time I disagreed with you on a serious issue?
