Im not pretending there aren’t wanks in our support but some people seem to genuinely believe they are a better person purely based on the team they do (or don’t )support but quickly unravel themselves by being not massively different to the traits of the stereotypical ‘old firm’ fans. 2 minutes ago, topcat(The most tip top) said: I think you mean "moral" high ground not "morale" high ground but it's difficult to be sure what's going on here Typo but other than that its quite obvious surely at what Im getting at here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 I feel like we're heading towards a bit of a rabbit-hole after I posted a video I thought was mildly amusing. I forgot any fan of Rangers or Celtic cannot possibly poke fun at the other without being told we shouldn't because we're just as bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s actually a unit of energy, I obviously meant an energetic diddy and it definitely wasn't another typo from finding my old ipad this morning and making an arse of the keyboard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Old firm fans responding to accusations of being overly sensitive and whataboutery with a fresh dose of sensitivity and whataboutery, but this time United as one. Sad. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busta Nut Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 1 hour ago, Bairnardo said: I think from memory pre 2012, Rangers fans had a case for saying Celtic fans were the paranoid, touchy ones that didn't like getting slagged off. This is defo true. It's amazing how quickly the cream buns picked up the parnoid, "what about them?" routine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapowzer Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 3 hours ago, AJF said: Which bears any relevance to my post how? A media (term used loosely) organisation backtracking on an editorial decision to appease foaming mouthed OF fans, that work for you? I mean to post it for some short term warm and fuzzy feeling of one upmanship while ignoring the irony of it or even citing your 10 year pout with a degree of self awareness. As for the BBC thing, everyone else in Scottish football knows that was a cuckolded statement to appease the masses, nobody other than you think they actually meant it. It was all about getting back into Ibrox and not having Thommo saying "after the game, Steven Gerrard said ........." in perpetuity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empty It Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 2 hours ago, gannonball said: I don’t like therm diddy as find it a bit cringe but thats who I mean in this case. Somehow people think they have moral high ground purely over who they support but really they aren’t really much different to those they claim to have issue with. Your average "diddy" definitely has the moral high ground over your average OF fan for the simple reason they don't go to the football to be a spewing bigot every week. That said every club has their arseholes, just seems to be a disproportionately high number that follow the OF. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoose Rice Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 We have a winner: Steven Naismith has been named Heart of Midlothian's technical director because his lack of Uefa Pro Licence means he cannot be appointed manager. The 36-year-old cannot begin to obtain the licence until next year, so Frank McAvoy has been named head coach. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 I'm sure similar things have happened in the past. I have a memory of David Platt taking over as manager of a team in Serie A but he had to officially be the assistant or something like that because he didn't have a pro license. This would be back in the 1990s or early 2000s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
