Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing in hope that your publication may shed light on the truly despicable banner on show at Celtic Park today against Aberdeen. This time of year is one for remembrance and reflection, not only in order for us to thank all the servicemen and women who fought to give us the freedoms we have today, but also to refelct on ourselves and what we are like as people. I certainly hope those in the Celtic support who helped present this banner today will do exactly that, as they are nothing but low life scum:

As you can see, the banners not only disgrace the act of sporting a poppy in remembrance of tha fallen, but also harm the names of men and women who have served in conflicts in Northern Ireland, Iraq and Afghanistan. Many of my close friends have parents who are in the armed forces and my own father was a member of the British Army, serving in Northern Ireland. Not only does this disgusting display offend myself and the aforementioned group of people, but incites hatred, a subject which often causes wide debate at football matches.
In closing, I would like to express my deepest hope that you find the courage within in you to highlight this and all the awful connotation and effects it has on those who view it, if not for those who are or would be offended by it, but for those who fought and died for us in order to gift us the free and peaceful life we take for granted every day.
Yours Sincerely,
Calvin Campbell
