Think the city really is split 50/50 (of those that support either...there's still a chunk that head west for the bigot fest...)
Sectarianism is there, in pockets...wee bit of flag waving on either side, drunken bams sing dafty songs in the pubs.. in the ground no sectarian songs... dont get me wrong for those 90 odd minutes there's hate in there... but i think most have friends n family on the other side... its a good intense rivalry..
Our tickets for the 28th went on sale today...sold 3800 in about 10 minutes...with hundreds still in the queue...
I'm an away season ticket holder, yes I'm that daft, and yes we have a worse record against them. But it's what we do lol
If anyone is interested getting a ticket for any game at easter road, outwith the derby, it's easy ( cat A need a bit trickier but plenty spare).
There's a live podcast tonight discussing all this if you want some honest thoughts...
