He was also a republican. I suppose for some, their hatred of catholics outweighs their love of the monarchy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit snobby, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyAnchor Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 File under too much information but I know a guy that is in The Black Skull. Growing up a Thistle fan he was an anarchist punk but got badly beaten by Celtic supporters as he had gone to the 'wrong' high school and he turned to the dark side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a bit of a fairy tale. Glasgow is blessed with many 'blood and thunder' bands who'd accommodate him. Black Skull? Not so much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I'm neither an Orangeman nor a monarchist but it's lovely to see the lads and lassies in loyal orders celebrating our queen's jubilee - by walking down E'burgh's High Street. The heart of Reformation Scotland. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirty dingus Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Wonder if the Greenock one's chucked it. I don't see them on the list and they haven't dawdled by my house in ages. There was only about a dozen or so marching and 1/2 dozen hangers on last time I seen them so probably sacked it off as they weren't big enough to annoy folk and block up the roads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure that these "entirely independent bands" have nothing at all to do with the Orange Lodges in the places named above, have never set foot in them, probably dont practice there, dont receive any financial support..................... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
