Now I realise why I could never have supported Celtic or Rangers. You're forgetting that the Union Bears are just the equivalent bunch of ned arseholes. No difference between the two groups, other than their colours. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely mental that people have this sort of warped perception Warped perception that Celtic fans see **** as a group of orange unionists and **** see celtc fans as nationalist ****** who love the IRA?

Congratulations on being the first supporter of Sevco that sees supporters of other teams as individuals and not Catholics or Nationalists. You truly are one in a million Nope. I know plenty like me. Your bias is clearly blinding you, or you don't get out enough outside of football grounds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye no bother mate. What utter pish. My uncle is a Rangers supporter and his best friend was a Celtic supporting, devout Catholic. His friend died of cancer and my uncle wore his friend's crucifix from then on. It started as a joke between them but ended up his own memorial. My uncle was slashed on the cheek by a scumbag who decided he was a "****** b*****d" in the wrong pub. If you can't see that there are all sorts supporting all teams then your a bigot. Plain and simple, whether you like it or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was utterly disgusting and Rangers should be condemning it. However I'm not responsible for the idiots who behaved like scum, so why should I be embarrassed? Seriously, when you see one of those Tartan tat shops in Edinburgh, are you embarrassed to be Scottish? Because that's where your logic leads. I’m going to ignore your nonsense comparison as I’m sure if you had the time again you’d come up with something better. Im sure you’re not a bad guy, but I do believe you’re very much part of the problem. We are not talking about a small minority of factors, which every support has. We’re talking about a support, particularly the away support, that prides itself on being as obnoxious and odious as it possibly can. A club that knows its demographic, knows why it has such a large following across the Irish Sea and wouldn’t dream of risking losing that base. If you really find the behaviour disgusting then you should very much be embarrassed by your football club. It is a poison. And there are the scum that directly contribute to it being poison, and there’s the non-bigoted, decent guys who either bury their head in the sand or wash their hands of it because they like following a big team. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judy Murray Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 42 minutes ago, Renfrewblue said: So just supporting Rangers makes him a bigot? So extending your logic that means every Hibs fan ever is an HIV+ junkie? Because that's the insult used for you, is it not? Supporting a team doesn't mean it dictates your lifestyle nor are you responsible for the rest of the support. If you can't understand that then you are a lost cause. Hibs don’t advocate drug abuse. Rangers didn’t sign catholics. You can choose to align with that or not. It’s a decision to support a club that was discriminatory towards catholics. If you are capable of turning a blind eye to the abhorrent history of the club, you are a bigot. Hope this helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was 5 when I chose Rangers. My Dad never explained what the songs were and I didn't know anything about religious bigotry until High school. My family were all atheist. I don't turn a blind eye because I e read up on the subject and I don't accept bigotry or bias in any form in my life However I am not responsible for Rangers or any of their other supporters. I'm responsible for me and my behaviour. By extension you should be ashamed to be Scottish because our country was built quite heavily on slave trade money. Or maybe you can just be a decent person now and work to prevent bigotry and bias where you are responsible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I should let the bigots drive me away then? Or I can add to the growing number of decent folk supporting the club. The more like me there are, the less the club needs the bigots. And you can ram that big team pish. I've been a Rangers supporter for 50 years. I remember plenty of pish years both before and after the Murray era. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 I don't know how OF fans can continue with minority lie, every away game it's full stands singing sectarian shite or pish glorifying terrorists, home games aren't much different (when they're winning). Not all OF fans are bigots but definitely a large proportion and an even larger proportion that join in with their chants 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a difficult thing to quantify but there is a noticeable difference in what is sung and the number of participants. Also your average Celtic/Rangers fan on here isn’t your GB/UB flag waving, flare wielding zealot or we would be posting on KDS and FF and not here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We take the knee in solidarity against racism but don’t do fcuk all to deal with sectarian cancer in our society. Show the Red card? Why don’t we deal with the biggest problem in Scottish football? Why? Because both sides make money out of it and so do the SFA and SPFL. Boils my piss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say we were all friends, I’m not going to be friends with someone who hates me based solely on the team I support and not on my character, values and principles however your suggestion is that none of us are friends and we are conditioned to hate everyone who supports the other side. That’s just not the reality and if it was my wife wouldn’t be my wife. And I’m not surprised you couldn’t see the point being made, your view on life is through a very narrow and actually somewhat bigoted lens, I actually feel a little sorry for you.
