    It's clearly not working properly and needs looked at . What really gets me is you'll hear the usual bigoted songs sung from the old firm supporters at full voice during games and the SPFL & SFA do nothing about it despite numerous warnings of fines and point deductions .

    They're still running scared of them

    Repeal the act and they are simply saying to the bigots "bring it on."

    We kid ourselves if we think that we live in a grown up society where everyone is nice to everyone else, - we don't, and we need to take a long look at ourselves.

    Johnny is quite right, the authorities and the politicians are running scared believing that they had solved the problem by bringing in an act that no-one knows what it means.

    Be specific, make a number of statements and then act upon them.

    With cameras at every ground, and with every police officer and fan having a mobile 'phone that can take photographs and films, - simply record those chanting the bile and fine them heavily in the courts, - it will soon stop.

    What a coincidence that its mostly the Rangers and Celtic fans that have their noses out of joint with the Football Act. No, it isn't really at all. ------- It obviously hasn't made any difference at all. Rangers fans especially are just ignoring it and have been for ages . They know they won't be punished so sing whatever they want.
