Is there a side over the water where both sides of the divide follow ?

Not sure about the smaller teams maybe Dungannon swifts, loughgall, etc. The big Belfast sides of Linfield, Glentoran, Crusaders and Cliftonville all mainly one side or the other. Cliftonville were banned from even playing Linfield at home for years. So basically Linfield had 2 home games against them rather than one home one away. Coleraine trying best to be a cross community club and only recently some guys been banned from our supporters club bus for sectarian chanting. They've been banned from other busses and also unable to book own coach due to trouble.Is there a side over the water where both sides of the divide follow ?

I read about a side called Belfast Celtic that folded, quite a history they had , I believe their ground wasn’t to far from a Windsor park…Not sure about the smaller teams maybe Dungannon swifts, loughgall, etc. The big Belfast sides of Linfield, Glentoran, Crusaders and Cliftonville all mainly one side or the other.

That's right one of the best sides in history of Northern Ireland footballI read about a side called Belfast Celtic that folded, quite a history they had , I believe their ground wasn’t to far from a Windsor park…
Needs complete overhaul. Toilets non existent, this season away fans moaning about weeds covering the terraces. Think they'd volunteers in this s week to tidy it up. Used to be one of my favourite away daysI used to watch them on Monday nights on SKY, not a great standard to put it mildly but i enjoyed them. Something really gritty and authentic about it all and i always though Glentoran's ground oozed character.
https://www.newsletter.co.uk/sport/...CFncb7sEpmE9jwx9uiZW71sDxjyckmpzx6EpgG2NFalwY this guy wanted to invest in Coleraine but we've got another investment plan. Coleraine were hours from going out of business a few years ago. Few fans (including myself) formed a group called Friends of Coleraine who paid the outstanding bills and set up a committee to make sure it doesn't happen again. The new investors are based in London but from Coleraine originally and it's going to a vote next week. Larne are owned by guy from Purple bricks house selling company and have gone full time hence why won league last season

I went to a friendly over 20 years ago against Linfield the grounds certainly changed now .Needs complete overhaul. Toilets non existent, this season away fans moaning about weeds covering the terraces. Think they'd volunteers in this s week to tidy it up. Used to be one of my favourite away days
Have a mate I work with lives in macosquin and goes to most games. has said I have to get up for a few pints and game there this season. Going seeing it live has to be better than some of the BBC coverage. Although if i go to a game locally its usually Derry City. Dont think theres a huge gulf in class between the leagues
