Quite right - I suspect that half the UK population could not even tell you the name of Edinburgh's two teams.

Even the London-based news have little clue about Scottish football - there was a funny moment when one newsreader thought that the Dundee Utd ground was in Italy. "Tannadichi" :lol:

Come to think of it, in Scotland I think to opposing fans just the fact that you support another team is intrinsically insulting. So you can cuss by just calling them what they call themselves, perhaps sprinkled with 'bastard' at the end to make the point. But then the supporters even tend to adopt the insults - Aberdeen fans sing "we're only sheep shagging bastards" all afternoon.

One thing that is a bit unique is that in Edinburgh there is spot on the street where everyone can spit on a Heart of Midlothian. Tends to freak out the tourists! :lol: Next time you're in Edinburgh....

Heart of Midlothian on the Royal Mile

Love Edinburgh :wub: ....but Sydney has its advantages come December! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Edinburgh with better weather would IMHO be the best city in the world, it's just fantastic and the history that goes with it is second to none, like the HoM tales and such like.

Shame that summer consists of 2 days in June!! :thumbdown:
