maroonlegions Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 this is still a sectarian song even if you change "F" to hibee. "Billy boys" is secterian. I know you guys all just want to show your support for the team but this is not the way to do it (IMO). There is no way you can seperate the song from it's history. The press and the police will pick up on it. It will get us into trouble. Say you hate hibs. Sing whatever. Just don't sing this one. (please). WHAT ABOUT .for we are the MENTAL GORGIE BOYS or FOR WE ARE THE FECKING GORGIE BOYS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo Hud316 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Can we try and modify the old Ivo Ivanauskis on the bench on the bench song...that was brilliant along with everyone doing the squatting low before jumping up and dancing like a loon singing we've got Ivo Ivanauskis on the bench on the bench IVO oh IVANAUSKAS...I think more senior fans will recall it being sung about Willie Johnstone and Prentice as well What player would be worthy of having this song sung about them at the moment?

Guest S.U.S.S. Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Cheers for the offer but I've got an MA in History and I know where the song came from. It is. So what? are you telling us that part of your course at telford was about this song? No, didnt think so. dont sing it, i respect the fact you dont want to, just stop trying to tell others what to do.

Guest S.U.S.S. Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 The thing about Hello Hello, you will get the people singing F-blood which will get us into trouble. I have no problem about singing Hibee blood but would the ones that are proposing singing it be able to get hibee blood out before the song is hijacked by the a***holes who would sing F-blood? I honestly believe yes, the vast majority will sing hibees drowning out any alternative versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for union flag ****, i woul;d happily refuse them into the crowd to wave them, but then they just mumble on about pround to be british nonesense !

Statto Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 It's amazing how such an arguement with insults can develop on football forums. I think the Hello Hello would have been a good suggestion a few years back but these days, the song has really been highlighted as one that we need to get rid of. For everybody explaining the song used to get the crowd involved and improved atmosphere, that is true but that is like saying if we brought Skacel and Brellier (examples) back, it doesn't mean to say we'd play as well as we did in 2005 -now.

Think they only develop when one person/side decides they are correct and will not entertain even the possibility that others have a point. Its amazing how the word bigot is thrown about by some on here when their posting style and content mark them as the very thing they claim to be intolerant of.

Rather than summoning up some arcane justification that 'Billy Boys' refers to a non-sectarian gang from the 1920s, we should accept that's not what people commonly understand it to mean. Particularly its most enthusiastic exponents who wave Union Jacks and, sadly for a Scottish football club, Ulster flags. The 'sanitised' version shouldn't include 'Fenian' or 'Billy Boys'. Ultimately, for a club with a massive repertoire of original songs, I can't understand why we have to resort to a song which appears, to non-Hearts fans, to ally us with the reactionary filth at Ibrox.

Beacause (when sung without 'Fenian' or Billy Boys') it's a brilliantly rousing HEARTS song. How does it 'ally' us with Rangers? Does singing 'Oh when the Hearts' ally us with Celtic, just because they sing a version of the song with different lyrics, or Hibs for that matter?

As said by others already on the thread, what's wrong with the 'Hibee blood' version? I totally agree that we should be able to sing it, however, regardless of your intentions in singin it - clearly the vast majority of (if not all) posters on here who wants to sing it do so because they feel its a great Hearts song which stirs the passion of fans and players - unfortunately the Huns have fecked it for everyone by goin OTT wi their sectarian peesh. When a croud of folk are singin it, its impossible to hear the actual words bein sung - all the press hear is the tune and the dumb feckers put 2 & 2 together and accuse us of sectarian abuse. Vlad makes the West Coast Media and the West Coast Mafia's (SFA) jobs easy enough, all singin this song does is make it even easier. Even if the press can hear every lyric as clear as a bell, they'll still report it as sectarian chanting. All you're doing by singin it is playing into their hands.

I do agree with some of your points, although I don't quite see the one in bold exactly as you do. Still, at least you're not one of these muppets who rules the song out as only a Rangers song.
