Ah, so if it makes clubs money, politics are ok to bring into the game.

Why is there absolutely no issue with celtics tri-colour obsession? a Scottish club, that likes to shout about being the first BRITISH team to win EC, yet still have Irish flags on their shirts and tracksuits and play Irish Rebel songs over the tannoy? Is that not political?

The only politics that are frowned upon are Unionist politics, and its not just in football.

If it was Labour, Tories or Lib Dems....sponsoring / paying for advertising, they would be on display also.....it's all about the money, money, money

Always say it to tims.I say man utd were the first and they inevitably shout it was ra sellick. Then say to them, oh you are british then? They generally don't like it funnily enough.

Football and politics will always go hand in hand, Happens here it happens everywhere in the world.

Not sure why but Scottish people seem to have an obsession about ploitics and religion not being part of football yet other parts of the world just get on with it.

I dont think thats necessarily the case, you always hear the high heid yins in sports organisations like FIFA, IOC etc saying that sport and politics shouldnt mix. Very often they have their own reasons for saying these things but its common thing to hear. I say keep they should either be separate or together, not a mixture of them both. You cant do both.
