OTT Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Good. It was never sectarian. This desperation for equivalence between Rangers and Celtic is pathetic. Just because they can't use their litany of derogatory terms for irish catholics doesn't mean there also needs to be a sectarian term for Rangers fans too. Huns because they behave like a band a rampaging huns. Act less ****ing feral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmfc1965 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 The initial decision and then the Sheriff Appeal Court's decision were nonsensical. By their reasoning "Rangers *******" would be sectarian. The way the case was argued makes this the right result. It doesn't make the term non sectarian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drumjambo Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 If the police weren't so much "Hun" sympathisers we'd be about 40 Million quid better off as a country thanks to their Dodgy arrests of those that plundered their already plundered club!! Oh and Craig Whyte never knew Sir David - Guffaw!! Who'd have thought a combination of Green and Whyte would cause such devastation to wipe them from history - Still well done on buying the leagues , it makes a change from your refs buying you points!!

I have been a Hearts supporter for well on 64 years now and in my time Hearts supporter in the main have always had a leaning toward the blue sides of the OF religious bias . The south side of Edinburgh at the time when Hearts were formed was a hot bed of Irish incomers I think this fueled the issue.
