Lets face it Rangers and Celtic make alot of money from their Irish/British roots.

Always makes me laugh when Irish fans claim to support their local team ie Cork,Derry but also Celtic!! Love to see were your allegiance would lie if both teams met!

To me as a Irish & Liverpool supporter religious connections between Everton/Liverpool are myth.

1. Netherfield Area is closer to Everton (Goodison) than Liverpool (Anfield).

2. Liverpool's two biggest songs IMO are YNWA & Fields of Anfield Road.

3. Never seen a Liverpool/Rangers scarf seen plenty of Liverpool/Celtic ones.

4. Liverpool/Everton swapped grounds in 1890's

5. Celtic 'borrowed' YNWA from a protestant club?

6. Liverpool/Everton fans do not give a toss about religion in Footballing matters.

1.The Netherfield Area is closer to Everton then Anfield but isn't Anfield in Everton. Liverpool founder John Houlding originally wanted to use the Everton name but the Goodison club kept the Everton name even though they left the area. The largely Catholic Scotland Road is traditionally an Everton supporting area.

2. Rangers also have a song based on the Fields of Athenry.

3. I've seen a few Liverpool/Rangers scarves. You're hardly saying there are no Liverpool fans who support Rangers as well.

4.There was a loyalist Liverpool supporters website caled Ulsterpool which is inactive now. There is a link on
www.geocites.com/davie1689/links.html
The Northern Ireland flag is a common sight at Anfield.

5. YNWA was a song used by the supporters of many different clubs. Even Man Utd fans sung it up until the late 70's although Liverpool fans may have been the first to adopt it.

6. Liverpool were founded by an Orangeman John Houlding and their first manager was also an Orangeman John McKenna. Everton were formed by an organist in a Methodist Church called George Mahon.
