Fair point GB, especially about the other clubs. But wasn't it "someone or others" in Scottish futba that thought it was perfectly acceptable to use the place as a neutral venue against us, even though they were playing in the match???
Yi coodnae fu**ing write it......... that's Scottish futba for yi...

I had forgot just how good a match that was. We were dead centre of the goal about half way up when Cifti decided to nearly trip/slip then, run in slow motion and then celebrate "before" slamming it in the ingin' bag. Only took a few seconds in real time but it seemed like forever to me
Other thing I'd like to say is both sides of the Old Firm are just as bad as each other. Religion and politics shouldn't be involved in football, just like football shouldn't be involved in religion or politics.
Celtic have tried to get Bernie Higgins (ex police Scotland) to head up their security but their fans ain't having it as he is seen as part of the group that tried to criminalise the sectarian singing. So it seems that if these clubs even attempt to try and move on from the vile chants...the fans won't allow it. They are exactly like Americas gun nuts that don't want any regulations on gun laws and keep machine guns for "protection"
Ever other club should just join start singing the same songs and we will see how quickly they move to clamp it down. The SFA are the problem! Until they are deducted points..no one is gonna give a crap! Could you imagine the stooshie if Rangers/Celtic were deducted 5 pts at this point of the season!
It makes me embarrassed to see this. Every fan wants their team to win, and I dare say we even enjoy seeing a bad ref decision (if it is innocent) go against the opposition, but McCurry went a step too far. United obviously deserved to win that game and after the league cup final, we all left hampden saying United really deserved to win that. You deserve a large chunk of luck, I hope to see both new firm sides doing well
an “offensive football chant “ law should lump sectarian stuff In with racism and homophobe chants and really force the issue. A large chunk of Celtic and rangers fans don’t participate but the ones who do are pretty vocal, not an excuse but it has been happening for so many years now people just accept it as part of the match day experience, if the SFA were to treat it as it should be then it stops.
Yip....totally agree. The SFA are the problem...they are using this sh#t to sell the Scottish game. It needs cleansed!
