    Sectarian Singing

    I generally don't have much time for either Rangers or Celtic but I think their fans get far too much criticism for their so called sectarian singing.

    Personally, I couldn't give a sh1t if they sing about how much they hate or love the Queen/Pope. What it has to do with football, I'll never know, but how people can feel especially offended by it is a mystery.

    There is clearly a lot of hate and venom in the way the songs are song but it is no different to what I've heard in Hampden from Scotland fans and at Tannadice from United fans.

    I dont understand the whole 'phuck you' thing anyway. It's like 'I dont like so I want to have quite rough *** with you'

    Don't the jags sing something about F**king both the pope and the queen? Is that sectarian or is it ok, or is it doubly offensive

    It isn't offensive at all tbh - but it's a good excuse to label it as such..

    Exactly - If singing F*** the pope or F*** the queen are considered offensive one wonders how many if indeed any Jags fans have been lifted under the Offensive Behaviour at Football and Threatening Communications (Scotland) Act 2012
