ICTJohnboy Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Incredible it's taken 47 years to bring some of these soldiers to book for this horror show. One, soldier F, will now be charged with 2 murders and 4 attempted murders. What does the F stand for? Fuckwit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Sunday Bloody Sunday'. What a great song. It really encapsulates the frustration of a Sunday, doesn't it? You wake up in the morning, you've got to read all the Sunday papers, the kids are running round, you've got to mow the lawn, wash the car, and you think "Sunday, bloody Sunday!".

Benjamin_Nevis Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Gammons in the local pub absolutely seething about this tonight. Some terrific quotes, my favourites being "they wanted to call it a war, they can't have it both ways", topped only by "so what? They were only fucking irish anyway" I'm not sure in what particular war that shooting unarmed and wounded civilians was considered acceptable tbh.

I'm Brian Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Soldier F will get two banners dedicated to him. One at Ibrox and one at Parkhead. Maybe even a card display... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenconner Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Be interesting if Soldier F is Scottish. Will Nicola and the gang come out in support of him along with the rest of the Scottish establishment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much any war in which we've participated. It's only unacceptable when foreigners we don't like are doing it. I'm looking at you Assad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is incredible. After nearly fifty years, and nearly ten years after the publication of the Saville Report which confirmed the defendant perjured himself on a number of occasions - and it's only now that a prosecution will be pursued, and only against one individual, and only in respect of two of the five people he's supposed to have shot on the day. It's almost as though the British government are throwing a bone of consolation to their Irish counterparts in order to get some support on a totally different matter. I'm sure I can't think what that might be............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be wrong, but I don't think the Irish people they want support on a totally different matter are really that bothered about prosecuting British soldiers.
