Indeed, it'd be nice if a statement could come out prior to our games saying to wrap it in with the shite songs, far from them quieting down, they were probably as loud as they've ever been at the last game at TFS. 

That be from your side too then?

Is there anything in particular you're thinking of? If we were singing about Craig Gowans en masses or songs of that Ilk then absolutely. Thankfully that isn't the case. The club has in the past released statements when fan behaviour hasn't been good enough, every club has idiots, that's inevitable, you can't help who else supports your team. The club though can make it clear what behaviour is, and isn't acceptable which is where the old firm are complicit in there silence.

Can confirm walking past your fans after the game all I could hear was Craig Gowans chants sadly. Matched by our fans singing about Norrie. Neither acceptable

Calling absolute fiction on the first part tbh. Was sit right beside the singing section at the last game and there wasn't a peep about Craig Gowans, if there was it would have been all over social media/the match thread? 

How did this fictional song go?

As you can see if you use your eyes correctly, you may note that I said after the game.

Here's how it went/what I believed it to be.

Tune of American Pie.

"So, bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Craigy Gowans touched the wire but the wire was live"

Oh I did, funnily enough I didn't just vanish after the game, nor did the fans. Go back and have a look at the footage, and there's tons of it. Of the fans in the stadium for a good while after the final whistle had sounded, and you're telling me the lyrics below were getting belted out? Where exactly did this happen and why on earth is this just coming out now? 

What a bizarre thing to lie about.

There was several people posting about the songs from both sides of fans. People distinctly saying it's poor on both ends which it absolutely is. Honestly this just makes you lose all credibility coming on to criticise our fans and in the same breath denying any wrong doing when thousands of people have heard it. This was both games this season and both have been remarked upon. In fact I even vaguely remember some Dunfermline fans joining in this conversation and saying both groups need to clamp down on it. At least we can admit and call out poor behaviour, maybe you should have a look at yourself and why you are not happy to call out terrible behaviour by your own fans.

I suppose you don't remember the police barricade after the game to allow home fans to pass safely aswell?

I’d just drop out of the conversation. He’s an attention seeker looking for a reaction through being controversial.

All decent fans know the stuff about Norrie and Craig is disgusting and needs eradicated. We’ve known that for years.

The fact he wants to keep it going through constantly discussing it and not only that he wanted to know lyrics of the death of a teenage laddie is fucking sick.

My advice would be don’t get involved in any conversation with him.

Yeah, I've just made up lyrics mocking a dead player from my club, good one Grant

You have, and it is very odd.

Are you telling me, that the police segregated fans? Next you'll be telling me they were segregated in the stadium!

There was? I'd love to see those posts about the Gowans songs, if there's several posts from both games then it should be very easy to find. From memory there was one post claiming it had happened at the second game, which wasn't verified by anyone, and was swiftly shut down. There was plenty messages about the Norrie chants which were heard by thousands though. 

I'm denying it because it is absolute fiction, there's a ton of footage of the Dunfermline fans after the game, who stayed for quite some time in the stadium. At no point was that song belted out in the stadium. 

There has absolutely been shite behaviour by Dunfermline fans at these games at the past, to say that Craig Gowans song was sung en masse and was all you could hear is an absolute nonsense though. I've no idea why that story has been fabricated.

You're a wise man. And a lot less stubborn than me

I just wanted to know if the bloke would go as far as to make up lyrics tbh.

Never did I once say it was sung "en masse" or during the game. But yes I did only hear Craig gowans songs after the game and not much else, obviously a smaller group of fannies looking for a reaction. What do I gain about lying?

Nah, you are a sick b*****d wanting to know that. Now do us and yourself a favour and leave the forum.

I’m all for banter but you’ve went too far with the stuff about Craig. We are all good people on this forum, it was very upsetting for us and our whole club when it happened so just bugger off.
