    It's much easier to use the Groin Brigade defence.

    Everyone is out to get me <ghost>

    To be fair, being a six foot tall Nazi skinhead with a swastika tattooed on yer napper hardly makes you look inconspicuous.

    I only took the Queen's shilling so I could get my golden rivet pummelled.

    Jingoistic, yes. Personally, I don't see the point in it either. But for some to try to blow it up into an anti-Catholic/Irish agenda is nonsense.

    Sure, fans on both sides will see it that way, but those are the twats that already are sectarian fuds that we could all do without.

    Perhaps it's an elaborate plot by Westminster's "Better Together" campaign to play to the lowest bams in our society?

    Dunno what they (uniformed or not) were singing.

    But if it was about that cowardly murderous **** then more power to 'em <laugh>

    Gambol, the point I am trying to make is that whoever gave this the go ahead is either extremely naive (to say the least) or simply did not care what happened. I don't happen to believe the latter.

    This is a PR disaster for all concerned because the bams who hate the Military - and see them as anti-Catholic zealots - have had their fears confirmed in every way. This display gives the distinct impression that the forces are cram packed with arseholes with sectarian prejudices. It also leads the bams in the crowd to belive they have the Military onside when it comes to dealing with these pesky taigs over the water.

    The troops are clearly clapping along with the Bams in the crowd singing about Derry's walls (and various other NI based ditties), it's embarassing. I know it's not a true representation of your average squaddie, who does not give two ****s about religion or the rights and wrongs of the troubles, but this risible affront to the Forces paints a different picture altogether, one that will be seized upon by people with agendas, on both sides.

    It's a false impression as I said. I served in NI and I don't recall a single man jack amongst my colleagues who had a prejudice on way or t'other. This shambles however makes me look like a liar, perhaps that's why it has annoyed me so much.

    He would have fitted in well with the Imbeciles on the pitch on Saturday.

    That's no way to talk about the Rangers players.
