So build my gallows build them high That I might see before I die The Antrim glen and the hills of County Down And I'll see again the lights of home I do enjoy going to watch my football team and singing... er, whatever this is. Regardless of the sectarianness or otherwise of the song, you do have to boggle at the self-victimization on display. Is there even *one* instance of anyone from Northern Ireland being subjected to capital punishment for 'fighting the IRA' since the IRA was founded? Surely, given the history of Ireland, they're not at a loss for instances of very real crimes committed against Northern Irish protestants or loyalists, rather than concocting entirely fictional grievances against a country they claim to be loyal to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best part is if you google "build my gallows" it says it's a song by Glasgow Rangers. Another layer of irrelevance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orbix Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Best part is that this entire segue was the depressingly inevitable outcome of AJF rightly calling out dickheads setting off fireworks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should change it to "build my pallets, build them high". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many in this unbelievably outstanding achievement record breaking accomplishment were penalties? I'm betting it's more than the total amount of penalties Hibs have been awarded this century. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is incidentally 12 penalties less than the prior record holder, Graham Alexander. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
