Falcoholic 1,348 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 While they strengthen their IRA resolve and their plastic connections with the owld cuntry and play heavy with the anti Oirish victim mentality whilst pretending to be members of the most vile of Christian religious establishments denying and concealing child sexual abuse at club and church all with the general acceptance of the SMSM............ We roll over and let every fucker kick the shit out of us. We were maybe once a proud protestant club, now I fear we are just a club struggling to get any sense of pride back. Changed days I'm afraid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 The club isn't which is a good thing, but it does hold true to the values of loyalty to the crown and the union which most folk from a Protestant background will recognise. The fan base is most certainly from that community and those views and no matter how many handwringing wishy washy new age trumpets we get in our support we will always hold true to those values. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Specky Forum Organiser 66,619 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Wee bit off topic but I see @The Louden Tavern over on FF trying to get us to 'leave our baggage behind' in regards to our songbook yet he continues to play UVF songs in his pub on a weekly basis. Wee bit hypocritical no? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bordersbear 1,105 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 We are a club founded on good Protestant values and I for one still find we are regarded by most to be a Protestant club. Of course times change and the club is open to all but those values should never alter. It's part of our heritage and should be shouted from the rooftops and the stands.

harlands plater 17,065 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 There's only one football club that makes people feel obliged to support them because of their religion, and it's not us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme_4 35,363 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 See to be honest, religion is quickly becoming a very outdated concept. Run by any church on a Sunday morning and it's filled with older people who'll be gone soon. If it wasn't for the football, I don't think the vast majority of Glasgow would care about religion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Scott 24 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 We should accept all walks of life. I've never seen the point in hating a human being simply because of their religious beliefs, sexuality or political opinions. Â Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
