When has anyone in either support stood up and told the morons to shut up when singing about 17th century battles, paramilitaries or anti pope/ anti queen bullsh**?

To clarify my position, I accept that both have better players than the rest of other teams and both will win more than they lose. But to completely ignore the truth does you no favours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said I was ignoring the truth.There are many bigots on both teams but as I said originally the labelling of all followers of both teams as bigots is wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you are correct in that fact but you fail to acknowledge the reason behind supporting these clubs when people live 2,3 4 hour drives away from Glasgow. Your point about Liverpool and Manchester United is correct there are glory hunters everywhere. My point has always been regarding the OF that religion determined the team supported. Not all supporters are bigots and I have never said that was the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never so they are all complicit I assume based on the team you support are Glasgow/Lanarkshire based. I assume also you have encountered an Orange/Hibs Walk where they have been playing tunes about 17th century battles, paramilitaries and anti pope/queen bullshit. I would also imagine not a fucking peep left your mouth. Does this make you complicit? No it doesn’t it makes you smart by putting your personal safety first The first thing anyone can do is to stop singing the songs and taking part but confronting amped up and sometimes tanked up morons isn’t something everyone is comfortable or even capable of doing and if you genuinely believe it is please film the next time you encounter an Orange/Hibs Walk and stand up to them. Also if you can leave details of where i should send flowers too also Edited August 28, 2022 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that clears it up for you. It’s the easiest analogy to make since it is the most prevalent display of these songs that anyone is likely to encounter however the same applies to a Hibs walk so i’ve edited the post to make it more inclusive of both sets of morons. Hopefully that gets your approval And needless to say the second part is stating the obvious Edited August 28, 2022 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's bang on, sport in general has folk with nothing else in their life bar their team, but I know more than a few old firm fans who's entire personality is supporting whichever half, and the vile bigotry that goes with it. It seems these folk are disproportionately more likely to support an arse cheek than any other club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
