Wasn’t sectarian and Scotland regularly hold anti catholic marches 

Clearly didn't do enough to keep the whataboutery crew happy. 

As most five year olds are aware, two wrongs don't make a right. 

I realise it's unrealistic to expect OF fans to have the mental capacity of a five year old though.

Didn’t say two wrongs make a right 

What you said was incorrect 

What they did was wrong and it was right of them to apologise but you can drop the holier than thou act

I already admitted to getting the bit about sectarian law wrong. 

Not sure what else i've said is wrong. Whether it's sectarian or not depends on what you mean by sectarian. 

I don't think i'm being holier than thou, just a bit less scummy than they are, which is a low bar.

That's more of a Scottish obsession anyway rather than a UEFA one, who tend to be every bit as bothered about manifestations of political extremism where their regulations are concerned as they are about any religious angle. That leads to fines over stuff that usually wouldn't be viewed as such a big deal in a Scottish context:

How will the mooted December elections in the Norn go do we think? Will a weather reduced turn out give the DUP back their slim advantage? Will the shinners just refuse to power share again in a tit for tat (tit) move.

With brexit demonstrably nowhere near resolved, will the DUP still refuse on principle to enter power-sharing even if they win (stop laughing at the back)?

The need to change the legislation to allow other parties than the DUP to join the administration if they refuse  

Very little.

That would involve Alliance redesignating as unionist - might cause much shaking of the Irish News in leafy, nationalist, middle class circles.
