    because its the "celtic end" and the bigots in the SFA think we are just like them, i bet the yams normally get the rangers end when they go there

    They were obviously considered to be more "fenian" than we were at the time.

    just as well I didn't argue with my first thought which was that the bigger support from east of Glasgow would get the East,

    Easy.


    1) Formally called Dundee Hibernian. SFA didn't know how to handle this so tossed a coin for who got which end.

    2) At the time, Livi were being run by an ex-Celtc director and funded by a lottery winning Celtc fan, ergo were more "Timothy" than us.


    Next easy question if ya please
