I have been a lifelong fan of Celtic, as was my father and one of my grampas - the other being a jags man. I am 54 years of age and I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER FOREVER that the referees have always been biased against Celtic. In fact the whole of the west of Scotland has always had an in-built anti-catholic agenda which has been always clear and evident for all to see. It is only now in the supposed days of trying to rid the world of bigotry and hatred that our little corner of the planet is being examined - why? Why because the "establishment" club of the "people" is damaged and wounded, in fact, SUNK. Every reference to salvation for this shower of scumbags is made in a supposed allegiance to the "old firm". I remember when we moved to the new town as overspill from glasgow in 1963. I was 5 years old and one of only 3 Catholics in the whole street. On going to my pals door, his dad would tell me they were not in and so on. The 3 brothers were warned not to play with me or my sister because we were cathoilcs, or else. I'm great pals with the 3 brothers and their mum and dad now, in fact Billy(lol) is my best mate and always will be even although we have moved our different ways apart - we still keep in touch My Dad was lucky. He was good and got a job no bother despite being educated at an RC school. Most of his pals were not, And my Grampas pals were the same - no jobs because they were Catholic. No other "football team" (I use thim term loosely) in the world have ever had an anti Catholic policy. Do not forget this and let it be a lesson to all that it is the main reason why racist and religious bigotry exists in this country. So. the managers of the clubs ( Celtic excluded ) say that "you win some, you lose some". "Refereeing decisions even themselves out over a season". I would like to make it quite clear that this has not been the case in my lifetime. With all the technology we now have it is time that we started monotoring every game and making a graphic chart of all contentious refereeing decisions for all clubs for and against. I am quite sure that this will give conclusive proof of the underlying unwritten "laws" of the game in the SPL, or , maybe, with transparency that they know they are being watched, the refs will have no option but to be fair and just. Time for a revolt Like me, my forefathers and yours., we have stood, sat and watched this for umpteen years and have done nothing about it, Brought up as subserviant, in the main, time to rise and open the door for a fair chance for all - as in the Celtic charter. Bring them to book. The average Rangers fan, like my best mate Billy, his brothers Tom and Jai and his dad, also Billy., are all good decent people. And have learned to let this ancient tribal reference to events of 1690 get finally put to bed and live and let live. For the other mob. And to the club itself. MAY THEY ROT IN HELL! And another thing. If they are allowed entry to the SPL next season, I will never pay a penny to watch Scottish football again. Time for big Pete to get the artillery ready. Too much silence from our corner for my liking. Hail Hail.
The average Rangers fans,like your friends,ARE the club so if as you wish the club rot in hell it will be the average Rangers fan, like your friends, who will suffer. I agree there are still bigots (on both sides) but I,m sure you would not like decent fans to suffer for the actions of a few. Also I think Rangers will be in the SPL next season - self preservation by others will see to that.
Do you not see that you are saying that being anti celtic is the same as being anti cathlic? Being celtic/a celtic fan is 100miles from being a cathlic and this kind of thinking is what drives on the bigot charter in this day and age. Dont get me wrong I think its shocking to discriminate signing a great player because of his religion, but I believe that this policy has since been dropped and slated by the club itself? By never paying a penny to watch the SPL you will also be punishing your beloved celtic?!
cant i hate rangers without being a bigot? im not even catholic man!! i hope edge, gambol and redwino rot in hell. ROT IN HELL I SAY!!!!
What the **** is this auld **** on about? Hoops440 - what is your opinion on the sinking of the titanic caused by protestants dropping good quality rivets from a height on to the poor catholics below; the replacement rivets being cheap and disintegrating on impact with an iceberg?
Mr T Hoops440 has the right idea. he ignored you. Why old tea bhoy why, are you always on the defence. It seems every thing and everybody, and everything you ever loved has always needed defending. Wee t you really have a tough life , I feel sorry for you, having defend everything all on your own.
So what happened to all the good quality iron rivets that were needed? http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/cheap-rivets-blamed-for-massive-loss-of-life-as-titanic-sank-809622.html
Mr. T. what part of the claim that cheap rivets were used in the making of the Titanic. That the over 90% of the work force were Protestants and that they amused themselves by tossing rivets at the few Catholic workers on lower decks The cheap rivets that were bought to finish out the ship burst open on impact of iceberg. What part do you disagree with and explain why?
It's ****e of titanic proportions Dev. Hoops - proof would be a start. The post from espaniaboy doesn't count as it clearly says that the testing was inconclusive as they do not know if the rivets came from the hull or from other areas. Even if they are from the hull, where's the proof that bad Protestants wasted the higher quality rivets by dropping them on the lazy bastard Kafflicks below? The shortage looks to have come from the demand in making three big bastard boats at the same time. I want to see proof or you will always be known as a ****ing ****** of titanic proportions.
Old t, you know as well as there is a head on your body, the truth was covered up. The builders and the workers were part of the Unionist/Protestant majority that misruled the 6 counties, until the civil rights movement and the IRA ended their bigotry and sectarian rule. Just because something is effectively covered in a sham enquiry doesn't mean it is not true. What is your evidence for stating the Kafflicks were bastards and were lazy. If you cannot prove that then I suggest you are very much ******ed, but why the surprise doesn't 40,000 to 50,000 ******ed Rangers fans attend Ibrox every other week.
