Misteral 2,932 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 TBB is a great song so it's a shame that only our version is banned. We do need some clear clarification from UEFA what songs are not permitted so that (hopefully) we can avoid any further punishments. Shite situation but we don't make the rules.

As pathetic as it is, the singing of what appears to be “racist” songs, even though they are songs and certainly not racist needs to stop Weve not been given much choice. Uefa need to take a look at how pathetic they are, they are a dictatorship I don’t think that would happen tbh. After it was banned after the Villarreal game it was never sang again in over a decade (in Europe). I’m confident the fans will take on board how serious this is.

Obviously your Hearts/Linfield fans get called it, but that’s just because they’re the same in their minds, but it’s the same with Hibs etc and fenians.

They will move those that bought in the area that will be closed to other areas. I can’t see fans being told they cannot attend after paying for tickets but could be wrong.

magic8ball 27,901 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Sad day that its come to this. Really sad. While I don't agree that this should be punished the club has been punished and any further songs or chants will just mean harsher future penalties. We all know that there will be plenty out there wanting to sink the boot in too so next time there is any chants at domestic games there will be calls for closures despite worse things going on in other grounds.

Trooblue 1,973 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 If Garry O'Hagan was the UEFA rep who reported Rangers, why was a current acting CEO of another Scottish club (Kilmarnock, since July this year) who was previously, for nearly two decades, employed by yet another Scottish club (Hibs - where he was Club Secretary and Director of Operations) selected as the impartial UEFA rep? Who do we have as a UEFA rep, and when can we expect that person to be allowed to report on the crowd issues at another Scottish club? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic 4,654 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 That's so fucking typical it's unreal. A fenian bastard who worked for the them, hibs and killie reported us. Quality!

Bydo 3,215 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 My opinion of the use of the word and whether it is sectarian/racist isn’t important here (by the way I am convinced it isn’t). But we know we need to play the game. The bottom line is that UEFA think it is and unless we want chucked out of Europe, we need to rap it. It’s all very well and good screaming it in the company of thousands of people and then defending your right to. How many of the people singing TBB or SR with the “offending” words would do so on the street, or in front of a police officer? I sure as fuck wouldn’t- I would lose my career and livelihood if I did. And because I know that, I don’t do it. We know the rules, we know how it all works and we know they are out to get us. If we don’t pay attention to that, we suffer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
