Although he's probably got one already. I don't like the Catholic church or the OO but are you seriously trying to compare visiting these two in terms of bigotry? I've said in another thread I would rather Celtic didn't use it for a media opportunity but that comparison is quite a stretch. I think you may have lived in NI for too long with that mentality.

Ranaldo Bairn Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Would a more suitable equivalence in our terms not be the Moderator of the Kirk? And by the way, what a completely sad thing to have to devote a few seconds of my life to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obvious what they're doing, it's repugnant and it has absolutely nothing in common with any individual's genuine affiliation or affection with either the papacy or the monarchy. And it is certainly an utterly irrelevant piece of Old Firm whataboutery to say 'but loads of other sportsman visit the pope' . Then it doesn’t really matter who we visited then as your irrational hatred of Celtic will cause you to be triggered by anything we do but if you honestly think Brendan Rodgers when he knew he was going to Rome thought “I know what will rile the people and play to the basest sectarian element of our support…..I’ll take the lads to visit tha Pope. No one will care that countless sports teams do this, the people will lose their shit and the lunatics will build me a statue and that will stir up sectarian tension cause I fucking love that shit” then you are a bigger clown than I ever took you for. Don’t get me wrong I’d much rather they were on the plane back home after getting put out of Europe rather than go on a jolly to the Vatican as the result matters much much more to me however trying to denormalise a sports team visiting the Vatican and suggesting a narrative that it’s motivated by sectarianism is laughable, utterly utterly laughable. You can think it’s cringeworthy because it probably is and that would be a pretty normal way to respond Edited December 1, 2023 by Jinky67 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
