Steg-il Ostenstad 11 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Its morgue like because guys will not risk a criminal record for singing a song at football. We dont know what we can or can not sing ffs. There was a list saying teams couldnt sing in your glasgow slums. Thats how pathetic this "im offended" bollox has becomeIbrox has been like a morgue, big european games and OF games aside, for years....certainly all the years ive been going. The new legislation on sectarianism at football, is fuck all to do with the shitey atmosphere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new legislation on sectarianism at football, is fuck all to do with the shitey atmosphere.Ibrox was not always a morgue. I was sitting in the Broomloan from about 98-2005 without a season ticket and the atmosphere in the main was fantastic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanbrox 10 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 You knew the baggage that comes with our club when you started supporting us.Don't agree with the baggage bit.If you are talking about those supporters from Ulster you will see that the migrations to the mainland were not all from the south, but many from Ulster of the protestant fraternity and many who had originally migrated from Scotland to Ulster previously. From the social climate at that time, yes the taigs were playin their vicTIM card and tryin a take over of all that is Scottish and protestant, so it was not difficult for Ulster Scots and local protestant Scots to identify with RFC and if for nothing else, a sign of unity and protest against the vhermin who were causing social unrest and providing scab labour at the expense of all others. As for Loyalist lyrics, the original words are not sectarian, most of lament and celebration of victory against an oppressive and murderin taig rule who had taken our religious freedom, our lands and civil liberties from us.As for the Billy Boys, change a couple of the words and we're home free.Fuck the vhermin and their appeasers and NO SURRENDER!!

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I didn't really, I was a child supporting my local team and chose Rangers over Celtic having been given the choice by my parents.Your parents offered you a choice of supporting Cletic? I feel for ya kiddo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycassidy1802 37 Posted January 22, 2012 Author Share Posted January 22, 2012 Your parents offered you a choice of supporting Cletic? I feel for ya kiddo.Dad's a Celtic supporter, Mum's a Rangers supporter. Mixed religion marriage and all that, although my parents both hate religion, so it was basically down to what team I wanted to support since I'm not religious.

bluebloodbear 13 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 All this concern of sectarian chanting and being politically correct has taken a lot from the atmosphere.Call me a 90 minute bigot or whatever the term is the now, but I imagine all the bears belting out TBB are just letting off some steam and hardly running out of Ibrox hunting down fenians. Anyone expressing mock outrage at these songs is just trying to get one over on us.Really sad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thermopylae 15,286 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 So you were offended by songs... why go to Football then?Come on there's no need for that I'm sure we can all do a bit of knitting rather than singing nasty songs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycassidy1802 37 Posted January 22, 2012 Author Share Posted January 22, 2012 Patricide is the only way forward for your future well-being.Brilliant He's actually one of the only Celtic supporters I can sit and watch an old firm match with who won't be biased as fuck - and one of the few that supports Rangers in Europe. Gives me another person to wind up when we get four in a row too. So it could be worse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

2daludaludalu 390 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Nae need for that really is there.Sorry kiddo, but I miss the loyalist songs. Some of them could get ibrox rocking like fuck. Sadly now it's like a fucking day out at the opera with disapproving arseholes looking at you like you have got horns coming out of your fuckin head. Bring them back I say. All we need to do is leave out the wee Nazi in Rome and change the feenyin to tarrier and were laughing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
