I think context here quite clearly gives it a religious association, but that’s not enough for it to be deemed sectarian or bigoted, in my opinion anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are laughing everywhere not just at the back. An organisation that stands to campaign against Catholic worship, has its member declare the never have been a RC or papist and even today don’t allow members to marry a practising Catholic Yeah they are a beacon of tolerance and inclusivity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be a complete simpleton to be ignorant to the context. Gazza could claim ignorance when he 1st done it, he can’t now and is pandering to the fuckwit orange element of your support. It isn’t a bigoted gesture in itself but add context of where it is and to whom then it is a really really stupid thing to do and incites a sectarian response however Gazza will do just about anything to be liked.

I just don’t believe the gesture alone is sufficient enough to be deemed bigoted or sectarian. As I mentioned, it panders to those who are bigoted or sectarian, but again, not everyone that uses a flute to celebrate their faith will be bigoted. Maybe I’m wrong, I just couldn’t see someone making a flute gesture being convicted of a crime motivated by hate. Again though, I’m not saying it was okay and he shouldn’t have done it. You’re normally a very decent poster on here, but just stop now with this shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it explained to me in my younger years from someone in it that said while they are obviously pro-Protestant faith, there is no official stance on being anti-Catholic and they believe there should be tolerance of differing religions whilst disagreeing with them. The overriding purpose was to promote a belief in their god and Protestant ascendancy. They obviously acknowledge a large portion of members sadly will hold sectarian beliefs, but again, not all of them do which is why I don’t think the gesture alone would be considered sectarian. I mentioned a criminal act because if it was deemed a sectarian gesture then whoever done it would be guilty of abusive sectarian behaviour which I believe is a criminal offence in Scotland? You’re a decent guy but I think one day it’s going to hit you square in the face just how much you’ve turned a blind eye to for your club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
