Lets follow a football team. Hold the fucking phone here a minute. Defending your city or country makes you inherently anti those people. Don't fucken invade and attempt to impose your political or religious ideologies on people and I'm willing to bet they wont try to kill you. Derry didn't go looking for Catholics to kill. Billy from "The Billy Boys" existence is a direct consequence of Catholic gangs roaming the streets attacking people. The guy didn't wake up one morning and decide to form a gang for no reason other than fuck it why not. Its like cunts that go on about the Crusades. They leave out the part about the Arabs attempting to invade Western Europe and that being the direct cause of the Western invasion of the Middle East. Once again, the King of France didn't wake up one morning and decide lets invade Arabia because fuck it why not. Play with fire and you're gonna get burned.

I'll see if I can dig out the official line from the cunts. Found it: UEFA stated that it is a signature song of a sectarian gang and represented a long-running sectarian divide, regardless of what lyrics were used. Linfield have subsequently advised their fans that all versions are banned. Seems to me that it's not just the 'fenian' word that's banned but also the 'Billy Boys' as well.

UEFA cannot ban a tune end of. This rubbish was peddled by Murray who didn’t trust us to stick to any amended words. As has been said before if we played Kilmarnock in Europe , there fans could sing their version but if we did we’d get done.

We have to surrender or die ourselves:( This is the horror of Uefa and certain scumbags intervening. It's foolish to fight a war you can't win . Unfortunately we started off on the wrong foot with Murray just backing down at every available opportunity and unfortunately now the die is cast ...
