I struggle to take the mock offence to the word Fenian seriously when the “offended”are happy to use orange bastard or H** so freely. It’s defo about a Glasgow razor gang in the 20’s led by Billy Fullerton who was hugely aggrieved by the influx of Irish catholic immigrants coming into Glasgow taking work away from folks. they were indeed from bridgeton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think the gang members of the Billy Boys went to Church on a Sunday morning? I'm only using your rationale straight back at you. Give me a response. Yes in the 20’s the Free Church rejoined the Church of Scotland and seen a huge resurgence in attendance at both Presbyterian and Chapel. Christianity was rife due to the social depression of the time. So I bet Billy Fullerton was first in line come Sunday 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends which loyalist songs surely. I'm sure you know the ones that UEFA dislike. Serious question, which I hope you will answer truthfully, are those songs acceptable to be sung at Gers games, knowing we could face a fine, or ban ? There's no wrong answer, if you are a Gers fan first and foremost you don't, if you are more interested in our Irish background that could be more important than our club being fined to you, Which one are you ? (I'm honest, and can answer the question, I'm the former as the club is more a part of my true heritage, and I lost the right to be any other because I am no longer religous, and in my lifetime I've thought often on this question, I await an honest and thoughtful reply.)

That's the problem, the majority are sensible on this, whether they feel wronged or not, but unfortuately there is still a noticable minority who don't. The debate interests me, but I've been having it ever since my early days both with Northern Irish and Scots folk. the debate will linger, Politically I support the ways of the traditional life in Scotland and Northern Ireland. In football I support Rangers. My choice is to keep my football and political wishes separate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never have. You get fenians that are Protestant (including some of the original ones), Catholic, non-religious. That's old ground that's been talked about infinite on Rangers pages from their conception. It's nothing new. I like how you've whooshed over the fact that you know fine well these gang members with the song weren't in Church first thing on a Sunday morning, yet you were obsessed with calling them Protestants, but also earlier tried to equate Churches being empty as to why you think Loyalist and Unionist songs have had their day? do you not see how stupid that looks and how your argument is all over the place?

That's a movement should be proscribed, there's laws there to that would do it. It's not sectarian to be against that. I can't believe I'm even having this debate with a so-called Rangers supporter.

You are seriously at it here. You are once again, intentionally, conflating Catholics with fenians to suit your argument despite a few posts ago basically agreeing with me. Billy Fullarton could hate catholics too, fair chance he did........he could have also hated his biological Da and his boss in work - it doesn't matter a fuck when it comes to the song.

You come across as the bigot, not anyone singing the Billy Boys. You have a deep-rooted prejudice for loyalism and unionism within the football club and it's support - that's clear as the nose on the end of your face.
