Border Reiver Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 If, in the context of Scotland and Scottish football, enough people use an unacceptable slur it then becomes ok?Anyone taking what is and isn’t allowed by a self confessed bigot and catholic hater needs to have a word.

A perfectly common term doesn't become offensive just because you can't say ****** anymore. This is the point that you are missing. It does. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Border Reiver Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Again, playing the poster rather than the post.So you joined the lodge to reform it from the inside?

The idea that *** is a term that covers protestants in Scotland is a hilarious fiction. We all know it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's commendable in a way how Rangers fans have decided to just brass-neck this one. 'It's a term that is only used to refer to Rangers fans, so it must mean something else'. Being comfortable hitting out with this mince takes a special kind of baws. All because you can't say '******'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
