I’d like to think it’s because we are, generally, sounder c***s but the fact is we have enough of those low-lifes up here that they could congregate round a hotel on a Saturday and try and torch it if they wanted to as well.
For me, one of the main reasons is that these people just seek conflict. Apart from 3pm on a Saturday in random shithole EFL towns, these nutters don’t have something to hate other than brown folk and Muslims. The folk up here that seek conflict already have one and have had one for years. It’s called the old firm. Scotland already has a well-established ‘us v them’ situation whereas England does not. Well, did not.
