Senna 735 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Just rattled off an email to FARE, the SPL, the SFA and Kick It Out about the mhanks anti-protestant and illegal IRA singing last night.Wonder who I'll hear back from?To whom it may concern,I, on behalf of a larger group of Scottish football fans, would like to make a complaint about songs sung last night at a football match that were of both a sectarian and illegal nature.I am referring to the Scottish Premier League match between Kilmarnock FC and Celtic FC. Not only could Celtic FC fans be heard singing anti-protestant songs (with lyrics such as, 'soon, there'll be no protestants at all') but songs glorifying the IRA ('Ooh ah, up the 'Ra') - which is illegal in the UK under current anti-terrorism legislation.Songs of this nature were clearly audible over the television broadcast which I viewed the match, and I anticipate your response most eagerly.Yours sincerely,XXXXXXXX XXXXps - it may be of interest that I have alerted other media outlets about not only this incident last night, but that you have been alerted to it as well. Given your work condemning such incidents in the past, I have no doubt your organisation will do everything to bring this to light.Already got an acknowledgement email from the SFA saying they'll pass it on to the relevant authorities.edit: also, I CC'd Celtic's press office in the one I sent to the SPL.

Still at least they replied I expect the others won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimfanciesthedude 24,960 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 surely we have a few supporters left within the press, that email should be fired off to them as well, with a piece about how you are waiting on response from FARE etclet whatever fans we have left in the media help us out, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wienblue 26 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I think you should all send complaints to Strathclyde Police and have it logged as a 'racial incident'. It is also a breach of the peace as it has caused 'alarm and offence'. Demand they advise you of the outcome and keep a log of the police's actions. Complaints can be sent online and ensure that you have a reference number. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz52 11,837 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Brilliant letter mate, those scumbags do what they like and sing what they like and no-one could care less, it's all about what big bad Rangers are singing. If I'm going to be sitting at a game scared to say anything incase I get the jail it'd make me feel a bit better knowing the same is happening to those mhanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
