Either or...it would appeal to your wider range of followers if you're "good" at your job I still don't particularly think either would be a particularly enthralling read. Me going for a pint is hardly the most exciting event. I'll probably go for one tonight though so keep your eyes peeled for it being breaking news on sky just incase.

Many religious organisations hold fairly set political beliefs as well. Would we say the RC church is apolitical because it is a religious organisation? And as such, as we claiming the OO hold no political opinions? They have no stance on say, the break up of the union or a united Ireland? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the OO? Couldn't tell you. The OO obviously has an extremely large majority(if not 100%) of unionist/loyalist members but it isn't a political organisation, you can't compare attending one of their events to someone attending an independence march which is a purely political event. A Brexit rally(for or against) would be a comparable example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortyBelly 0 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Probably the same line where it's acceptable for thousands of people wearing football shirts to sing political songs about SNP / unionism / republicanism... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's cool to wear a football shirt and sing about politics at a football game or to wear one at a religious event but if you wear it at a political event you're attaching your political beliefs to the club and that is forbidden?

So does being a Rangers fan mean we must all subscribe to the same political opinions? Who's making the call on which smaller policy we're allowed to like/dislike? Have we reached a consensus on what a Rangers fan should think about testing of Primary one pupils or Brexit? More importantly, given that I imagine most of us started supporting Rangers at a fairly young age. Did politics have any part in the reason many of us support the club to start with? I must admit that at three or four years old I wasn't particularly clued up on the nuances of the Scottish independence debate - but I did know that I fucking loved watching Rangers. Does holding a particular political view 20, 30 or 40 years later the suddenly disqualify me from being allowed to support Rangers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we have a collective view on a wide range of political issues and not simply one or two big issues. Looks like it's up to you to decide the position we're taking.
