If you think this song is a matter for the ‘authorities’ to deal with I suggest you keep quiet as clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. A discussion could be had regarding whether it should be sung at the football but it has f**k all do with any power really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really tbh but I wouldn’t go phoning any ‘authorities’ about it as it has no racial/sectarian connotations etc about it. Would be like an English fan complaining about the words to flower of Scotland 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan_G Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Phew, good thing Roaming in the gloaming wasn't being belted out in the second minute, just before Boys in the Old Brigade then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckets Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 2 minutes ago, Granny Danger said: Cambridge dictionary: Boys of the Old Brigade isn't sectarian it's a song about Irish independence. Even if it upsets people in Scotland that countries chose to leave the British Empire, it is irrelevant. Ireland is an independent nation recognised by the UN, its not a pariah terrorist state where you can ban anything to do with the country. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArabFC Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Young striker smashes an effort off the post - immediately substituted. Brings on centre half Mulgrew in midfield when McDonald is doing fine, minutes after 5ft defender beaten at far post.
