Cumbria_blue Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 No English clubs are proddy mate. They all have mixed supports. That kind of religious divide doesn't really exist down here, though some English clubs undoubtedly are more loyalist than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff crap in the head Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 West Ham, Chelsea, Millwall. All generally quite loyalist / proud to be British. Religion isnt too much of a factor in the English game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Religion isnt too much of a factor in the English game though. I'd add Bolton, Portsmouth and Blackburn to that list. Even Carlisle United have a slight loyalist leaning, especially when I take my Ulster flag to games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TunnyLoyal Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Lot of people think Liverpool/Everton are a Protestant/catholic split, but they've both got Methodist backgrounds. Alot of people say this because until 10 years ago, outside of Glasgow and Belfast, Liverpool had the biggest population of Orangemen and woman.

BlueIsTheColour Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Lot of people think Liverpool/Everton are a Protestant/catholic split, but they've both got Methodist backgrounds. Liverpool were originally a Protestant club but over the years the support has become much more diverse and now there is no real national or religious identity among either of the Merseyside clubs. Liverpool fans see the club as a religion of it's own, much like we do i suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cumbria_blue Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 id say most london teams have have protestant roots and i think swansea city is aswell Swansea? Doubt it. I know a guy from Swansea who is a loyalist himself, he supports us and Swansea but the vast majority of their fanns are Welsh nationalists.
