stonedsailor Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 No great surprise you make assumptions as to my reasons for having this debate. Edit: You could simply take this to an appropriate thread and I wouldn't have to read the inane ramblings ... Inaction does not equate to contribution. What is so hard to understand? A wee quandary for you mate. You are standing at the points on a railway track. The tracks after the points have hazards on them. Down one track, where the points would direct an oncoming train is a family of four stuck, unable to escape any future carnage. Down the other track is a solitary male, unconscious but safe due to the points. A train is approaching. You have the power to save the family but first you must condemn a man to death. What do you do? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyWellFan Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) Which is the one where they sing " f**k Bobby Sands, he's deid" kind of shoved inbetween the verse and they do these little hand actions? Is it sectarian? Can't be as nobody was 'horsed out, never to return' at Ibrox on super-special-shame-the-armed-forces-day. That's A Fathers Advice. I'm sure it's historical enough to not bother Tedi. Edited July 30, 2014 by MikeyWellFan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 You haven't exactly clarified what they have 'contributed' unless your harking back to the dark ages. The definition of 'the Old Firm' to me is the 'two clubs'. What exactly do you think Celtic have done, say since Fergus took charge, to contribute to sectarianism? So did you mean Celtic, rather than the Old Firm in the initial post? If so, just say so and then we can carry on addressing all the crap they've been guilty of too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forever_blue Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Look the bottom line is this- Both Clubs are bigoted to the core. If you live in Govan or East End then respect. If you do not why are you supporting either team? It is pure badness. Respect only to those supporting local teams. ironically a govanite is probably more likely to support celtic and the areas surrounding parkhead are home to some of the biggest rangers area's in the city so that point is bollox. also the use of the phrase pure badness is utterly horrific stuff, makes you sound like the only an excuse barry fergusson sketch from the early noughties. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you do? Would you push a fat man (so fat his inertia will stop a train - though it will kill him) in front of a train to stop it killing a family of four stuck further along the track? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 instead of this stupid is it sectarian or not bollox? why can it be judged in the way uefa article 16.2. where it forbids the following “the use of gestures, words, objects or any other means to transmit any message not fit for a sports event, particularly messages of a political, ideological, religious, offensive or provocative nature.” now this would settle any argument about lists of what are banned songs or what is or is not offensive. It probably would but would it also put paid to this rigorous policy inside Ibrox which frankly nobody believes or has evidence for? And thanks Mikey, who's your wee team? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyWellFan Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Rangers - Ibrox used to host the annual Orange Order church parade. Celtic - Allowed a Wolfe Tone's music video to be shot at Celtic Park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forever_blue Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 You mean the Irish flag .. the flag that ... " The flag, as a whole, is intended to symbolise the inclusion and hoped-for union of the people of different traditions on the island of Ireland, which is expressed in the Constitution as the entitlement of every person born in Ireland to be part of the independent Irish nation, regardless of ethnic origin, religion or political conviction" Very good ... regardless of ethnic origin, religion or political conviction( unless you are a unionist proddy) - green brigade 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonedsailor Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Rescue the man and get reward fr him, then wait to be hero rescuer for imminent train crash. Become hero and sell story to Daily record. Unfortunately the man, and family are two miles away from you and the train is approaching the points fast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
