The SFA would also have to haul in both old firm clubs , and anyone else that does it -don't hold your breath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Definitely shows up the "West Coast problem" nonsense up for what it is, unless there were just loads of Glaswegian Hearts fans kicking about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why on earth is it ok for Hearts fans (and the old filth) to sing about it while Lafferty gets set up for a public flogging. In saying that, there is no way I’m condoning or minimising his actions, it’s just double standards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting that the entire home stands at Tynecastle are blasting out songs about the famine and Bobby Sands like happens at Ibrox? Hearts have a small number of young arseholes who trot out this pish, usually guys who travel.....................same as we have a small number of coked up p***ks singing IRA songs (see our match in Dingwall). Those issues are not in the same league as the ones encouraged by Rangers and Celtic - in fact, not even the same universe. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Were hearts singing that? Funny how precious they get at being called diets, mostly in jest, on the internet. How about directing that at your own fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because if you work in professional football, be it as a player or a manager, there are rules and standards to abide by. No club is voting for strict liability re fans actions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentGuerin Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 First time in my life yesterday I pulled up the young lads next to me singing 'Hello hello'. The lad next to me went with a particularly aggressive '******', complete with head thrust. I just laughed at the lad and told him he was ridiculous, asked him why he sang it. Was quite surprised at myself, but the lads just melted and packed it in. My mate backed me up and told them to ram it as well. Amazing how flimsy these wee diddies are when you pull them up. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those issues are not in the same league as the ones encouraged by Rangers and Celtic - in fact, not even the same universe. I've seen bigotry-adjacent stuff at Tynecastle, and the odd murmuring of that phrase from a certain section in the main stand. It's not the entire stands at Ibrox either - most, but not all of Rangers' dodgy songbook is reserved for away games, and although it does sometimes come out at home games, I would be pretty confident it's not the entire stand. I'd put Hearts in a very clear third place in terms of this sort of behaviour, they're the only other support I dread getting the train through from Glasgow with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts fans singing it are fannies, but Lafferty is a professional footballer and subject to the SFA's disciplinary procedures. In actuality, any fan caught doing it and taken to court would likely face worse punishment than Lafferty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who is going to go in amongst these Fannie’s and pull them out, somebody needs to do it sooner or later. Its so much easier to pick on stupid individuals like Lafferty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because one is against the rules of the sfa being a registered footballer to them and the other are a bunch of fandangos (not that lafferty isnt).

A crowd can call a player or ref a cheating b*****d but a manager can't as another example (unless you are Robbie Neilson ironically). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty It Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Would love to see every one of the wee fannies singing sectarian songs banned from football but to compare it to the OF 40-50k singing this shite every week is laughable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not accurate in my experience. I've rarely heard the 'party' songbook at Ibrox or Parkhead, it's more a problem with their away support, which makes it directly comparable in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estragon Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Lafferty should be punished, Hearts should be punished, Rangers should be punished. Its quite simple really, we either have a societal problem with people who use this kind of language or we allow it. Personally, I'm in favour of trying to eradicate it but you do you Edinburgh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
