See when you say "moves on" are you talking about Celtic fans giving up singing irish songs?
I've replied about that before. Molly Malone, Fields of Athenry etc. seem fair enough to me. Even the Boys of the Old Brigade seems reasonable. Celtic willo forever be a club defined by Irish roots. That really doesn't worry me at all, in spite of what plastic and his ilk might think.
Provo/Real IRA songs and celebration of the Troubles, aren't. They never will be. Why do you and so many Celtic fans seek to defend or obfuscate this self evident truth?
Likewise, God Save the Queen, and Rule Brittania are perfectly acceptable from the Huns, whereas the Famine Song isn't.
Until the pair of you get that through your collective mindsets, Thistle fans singing f**k the Pope and f**k the Queen isn't, and nor should it, be unacceptable. You BOTH bring it on yourselves. That song isn't sung at Love Street anymore, which quite frankly is a shame. Whatever else it is, it should remind the more intelligent amongst the OF of what they bring to the party.
I don't really get this "pride in your heritage" thing - you're born where you are born of the stock you were born from. Don't get me wrong, I'm proud enough to wear a Scotland or Saints shirt, but it's not really any big deal. What YOU do with YOUR life seems to me to be much more important. But vive la difference. Please just don't try to take the moral high ground when your fans sing songs about murderers.
