While it pains me to say it, I wonder if you're perhaps being a little too generous to the blue nose brigade. I have never understood the sectarian nature of football in the West of Scotland, but it's clear that for many it runs as deep as the "E" through a stick of Edinburgh rock. At work I've seen Rangers fans so staunchly entrenched that they won't even wear a Celtic top for charity as a bit of fun. While some sections of Ibrox support may stretch to being "saddened", unfortunately I think "morn" is probably a step too far for most of them.
