Read this a couple of times - it's not too bad - sometimes it dives into the hyperbole all football blogs do but it's a pretty good assessment of our raging neighbours. It's too big to quote and would take a few comments so here's the link to what he's written today. http://oldpesky.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/the-rangers-persecution-complex.html
Slips into the occasional over-dramatic a bit for me (concerning RCs in Scotland historically blah blah blah but it is just for context). As an explanation of the siege mentality, it's pretty spot-on.
Biggus Diccus I tried yesterday in my simple everyday language to explain why for Celtic's sake we don't want Sevco ever to be allowed to take their place in the SPL. Without the intimidation of the thuggery and violence. Without the ceaseless simple errors of judgement which will even out over the coarse of time. ( Are we talking a hundred years). Without the authorities and the MSM doing everything to help the Rangers/Sevco. Celtic will strive forward and can really become a force in Europe again. I don't want to live to see the day when grown men allegedly Celtic supporters are scared or frightened of Celtic playing any team. No doubt we will be beaten in the future but now without Rangers we can be proud and not scared.
I don't know how anyone can make the link between a belief in Religion and support for a football club..... Ridiculous. I did enjoy it. Like you say much of it has been noted here already.
This **** is for watching So you hate Paddy McCourt and are only proud of Celtic now Rangers are gone? You couldn't be proud of Celtic as long as Rangers existed?
Sorry gay Cork bhoy. I see you keep referring back to posts made in the past to try to get your pathetic digs in. I think I may, on the basis of your little quote, you don't merit me spending any time to check, have mislaid you What I intended to say without the evil thugs of Rangers fans people from where I come from will be able to be proud of Paddy McCourt and of course everyone else at Celtic without the fear of thuggery that has occurred early in the morning and late at night as we went to and come from Celtic Park. That fear Gay cork boy is real compared to sitting on a hurlers knee playing with his hurley or what ever as you watch a match in the safety of a house.
