If they don’t like the reference to the Billy Boys then they are getting it wrong, that name has nothing to do with any sectarian organisation. It refers to King William.

This is why we need clarity on what is and what's not allowed. TBB is one of the most stirring songs we sing and one we should be doing our utmost to keep even if it means a wee tweak somewhere . Unfortunately it seems nobody at the club seems interested in finding out . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uefa sight us for sectarian singing. We respond by asking for evidence of sectarian words or meaning in the song. Uefa respond by saying there is none but we're going to charge you anyway?

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Everyone knows the problem FFS. It's not the tune or 99% of the words. Folk looking for excuses aren't going to find them by saying other clubs singalong to the same tune. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
