Police have intercepted a parcel bomb intended for a supporter of Scottish club Celtic, the fifth such device to target the Glasgow club this month. Northern Ireland police found the package in Belfast after it wasn't delivered because the address was inaccurate. The package was detected after it was sent to a Belfast postal facility that handles undelivered parcels throughout the United Kingdom. It is the latest scare for the club after manager Neil Lennon, his lawyer and a Celtic-supporting Scottish politician were all sent similar packages. None detonated. No group has claimed responsibility for the devices, but authorities believe extremist supporters of Celtic's rival Glasgow club Rangers are the blame. The recent incidents are the latest in the violent history between the two famous clubs. Protestant-alligned Rangers and Catholic club Celtic have one of the fiercest and most violent rivalries in world sport. Tensions between the two clubs have simmered in the past few decades, but the recent events have both clubs on edge. www.foxsports.com.au/football/police-allege-rangers-supporter-is-responsible-for-parcel-bomb-sent-to-celtic-fan-fifth-such-incident-this-month/story-e6frf423-1226045410705(Original title too long)

jesus tap dancing christ! shit like that needs to stop. This would never cross two United fans I know's minds. If a City fan like me can hang around two United fans, why can't Celtic and Rangers fans get along?
