I don't think the sectarianism is the sole reason for Rangers and Celtic's large attendances.
They get a far higher % of population than any other scottish team = combined its over 10%
Compare to aberdeen, with around 4% and edinburgh at around 4.5%-

Besides, the proposition was Celtic joining the English leagues if Rangers go under, not both of them..
Indeed, but if one joined, once the other ugly sister has re established itself they would join as the precident has been set. They wouldnt benefit the Premier league in terms of away attendances any more than the 2 massive clubs from Dee Dah land would, and would cost much more in disruption and police costs

I'd still like to know why the fans were so against Miller's bid though.
Liverpool fc? The history/record of american `investors` isnt exactly great.
