Scotland games should be a time for everyone to bury their club allegiances and get behind the team. It never used to be political even in the aftermath of the 2014 referendum. Since when did you have to be a nationalist to support the team? The thing I like about the games is that it is different from all the club and sectarian sh1te that we get for the most part throughout the year. It's also hilarious that folk seem to think I am a bootlicking Unionist who supports the monarchy. Those that know me that this is definitely NOT how you would describe me in real life. Aside from all this. The queen died a year ago. why are we even bothered about it know. We do put our club allegiances on the back burner at Scotland games. The only ones who don’t, it seems, are royalist rangers fans who want a wee greet about an anthem being booed. Funnily enough, my politics aren’t based on which team I support anyway, so that shouldn’t be particularly relevant. Scotland fans have been booing GSTQ since the 70’s when the SNP were basically irrelevant. The c***s moaning about it now and blaming it on Scottish nationalists very clearly have an agenda of their own. Again, if it bothers you, just don’t go to England games. It’s not going to change. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Blades Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 It’s worth bearing in mind that ALL international football is political, it’s countries playing other countries, all of whom have had their borders defined by war & politics at some point in history. The level of venom in each fixture relies entirely on the previous politics between the two countries - Germany & Netherlands a prime example. Surely the booing of an anthem isn’t too big a deal? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think large sporting events occur in a social and political vaccum? Any Scotland-England game will have a bit of an edge to it. I don’t see you complaining about the England fans political statements throughout. 18 minutes ago, andyg83 said: So many folk here seem to think it's OK that we start to become like the old firm airing political grievances at matches. What a load of sh1te. Sounds like a great laugh doesn't it. Holy f**k you are tedious. 10 minutes ago, andyg83 said: The queen's death was a big deal whatever way you look at it. I don't wish for the monarchy to continue but her death did resonate around the world. I can't even remember the minutes applause at the Ukraine game tbh. We are better rising above all this sh1te. Ah, so you are okay with politics in football, but only if it’s a special occasion for the monarch. Gotcha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are wasting your time Andy as am I. Let Scotland's shame embarrass themselves by celebrating the death of an old lady. They are no better than the English fans so cannot claim the higher ground. It is scary that so many people that think like that walk among us. -13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's usually one, if not both. I am none of the things you state and I also do not celebrate another person being dead. I also do not sing disgusting songs like the Harry Kane one. I am better than that and I really wish that my fellow Scots were. Obviously not though reading this thread. -7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Silent Majority" who are backed by all the newspapers, TV news outlets, etc., and have kicked up a total shitstorm on Twitter after Tuesday's events...

Sorry, let me correct that: The queen was a lovely woman who absolutely cared for the people around her, particularly you and I, her loyal and faithful subjects. She would never do anything that would harm us and certainly viewed us as equals. She stands for a union of fairness and equality between nations, and certainly never grew up as a princess of an empire, and would never do anything evil such as, say, the Nazi Salute! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
