What's the most "Tin Pot" thing you've seen in the SPFL

It lingers on at Tynecastle and Rugby Park as well principally because "Marching through Georgia" is just a really good tune. 

Other objectionable songs I remember from my youth have died off and are now about as popular as Gary Glitter while Hello Hello is more like classic Michael Jackson

Catchy or not when it carries such synonymous baggage with that mob in Govan why it’s still a thing in 2023 is the riddest of rid necks.

Our game is littered with it, the other cheek belts out the Liverpool anthem as if it’s their own weekly with zero shame and fucks given. I mean the world are even in the Shankly gates and on the scousers badge.

What does the top bit of that badge say? 

Óglaigh na hÉireann: is an Irish-language idiom that can be translated variously as soldiers of Ireland, warriors of Ireland, volunteers of Ireland or Irish volunteers.

We're laughing and learning on this thread

I think when it's them getting called out for being sectarian bigots it should be in the main forum for everyone to see.

Your forum experience would be seriously fucked without Celtic/Rangers threads, mate. White on rice n’that.

I mean did they not have to submit their plans to Hampden/SPFL? They would have had access the day before to set it up surely.

Did nobody running the stadium or league think, hey glorifying guys who didn't accept Good Friday and run protection rackets in another country under the auspices of being freedom fighters is a good look for one of the three showpieces in our game.

f**k me.

Yes, back to the prestige cup ..... does being outsmarted by a guy who owns a fried chicken shop stick stick in the craw?

“stick in the craw” doesn’t quite cover it.  Thanks for asking though, I hadn’t thought about it for a day or two.

Given that their plans apparently involved setting off loads of flares it's reasonable to assume that if they did submit them they will have omitted at least some details.

Yer’ arse. Want to look at the list of fines handed down over recent years for the songbooks, the banners, the behaviour at certain other games? Reading someone posting, in seemingly serious fashion too, that Old firm fans watch their Ps & Qs for fear of European sanctions nearly made me actually soil my breeks. The beaks should have been handing down closed-doors punishments at the very least, rather than a derisory fine after fine, with an associated slap on the wrist and a ‘gonnae no’ dae’ that’ edict issued to Old firm clubs due to fans very much stepping out of line season after season, time after time.

No need to cherry pick, just highlight the part you're referring too.

 

We've been lucky with UEFA that we've voluntarily shut down stands/refused to allocations which has seen them go easy on us, you're trying to pick a fight with someone who is agreeing with you.

We've had a few stand closures but I agree with you about the fines, they're a nonsense and don't affect the fans or even the clubs.

Listen we got meekly papped by Raith Rovers and missed out on £500k at Ibrox. That leaves a bitter taste.

You're spot on but the cretins running the SPFL and Hampden wouldn't see a problem with it given sectarianism is part of their everyday life. That it's not even mentioned in the media 24 hours later says all you need to know. What a fucking disgrace.
