I have been told of 2 reasons -

BNP/NF links between both clubs

After the Bradford fire Rangers played Chelsea in a fund raiser. After the game the police, expecting trouble, ushered Ranger's fans out the ground. The Chelsea fans watched on and applauded the fans for traveling so far to help.

This.

Not all, but a significant minority of meat heads at both clubs.

Agreed.

Both link up when either side have 'tasty' fixtures involving teams with a reputation. Linked to Ulster loyalists.
