First thought about zaluska (not whoever was involved)


Recommended Posts

We've already (and rightly) been warned off speculating about who was they mystery person in the zaluska attack but I was wondering about peoples first thoughts on the motive.

When Neil Lennon was attacked in the exact same area, my first thought was that he probably deserved it. I was fairly sure it would be more likely to have been about his attitude rather than what his job was.

Although the religious motivation part of the charge against his attackers was dropped, the deatils which have come to light suggest I was probably wrong in my initial opinions.

When I first heard about Zaluska my thoughts were the opposite. It was probably some bams attacking him 'cos he's a celtic player. Apparently I was wrong on this one too.

Now obviously I'm a Rangers fan who just admitted prejudice over 2 seperate violent attacks on Celtic players so I'm bound to take pelters from the usual suspects who want to score points.

For the more mature memebrs of the forums though I ask this: Did you guys think one scenario was far more likely than another based on nothing more than knowing a little about the victims and nothing about the details of the incident or did you decide to make no judgements until you got a lot more info?

How many of you heard about Zaluska and immediately thought '*** ned' or if not something that extreme, were still fairly confident that the perpetrator would be a rangers fan?

(I realise that it might well turn out it was a ned rangers fan anyway, just one who plays football but I'm guessing now that's pretty unlikely)

Says it all about you that one line to be honest

That I'm honest enough to know everyone is prejudiced and uses stereotypes?

Thanks.

It says a lot about you that you'd like to pretend a thug who revels in conflict isn't far more likely to get beaten up than a decent human being.
