Hereward Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I emailed your list. So far only got a reply from Barry Anderson, who ponted out he'd briefly mentioned the ira chants and trouble in article yesterday. Fair play to him for replying. B anderson article That was a good article by Banderson (Fair's fair, I give him stick when he's off the mark). That article needs wider circulation.

Primavera Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Agree totally Borthers. It doesn't matter what your feelings are on this matter; should people choose to approach an organisation or media outlet, they should do so in a polite manner and put their case across in a well thought out manner. However, they have to also accept they may not get the reply they are hoping for. In relation to what went on in the Roseburn stand on Wednesday I would, respectfully, suggest that anyone looking to pass on the video that has appeared on here, for example, or details of the list of songs being sung, should be avoiding Scottish media outlets based in Glasgow, and instead forward this information on to English based media outlets. For obvious reasons the English people view those who continue to show open support of a terrorist group differently from how people based and working in the West of Scotland will do, irrespective of those WoS people's underlying football allegiances. The idea that such open support is being classed as political doesn't sit easy for English people who have seen the damage done by PIRA. And after all history shows that PIRA weren't political, they were "military/paramilitary". Over many years during the problems in Northern Ireland this was the great get out clause used by those accused of being members of PIRA. They openly stated they were actually members of Sinn Fein, the political wing of the Republican movement and not PIRA, which was only involved in a paramilitary means of achieving a goal. If the correct people are approached they could potentially blow open the whole idea, openly supported by Celtic FC, who state their fans are not sectarian/bigoted but promoting a political viewpoint, and expose it as nothing more than open support of terrorism. Excellent post, as someone who was born in England and lived there through the 70s my dislike of Celtic has nothing to do with religion, bigotry or the like, its purely about this. Car bombings etc were a fact of life where I lived and the IRA were viewed in a similar way to Al-Quaeda are now except they were far more active and a real bogey man, people dont forget this in a hurry and English people would generally be pretty horrified to hear the bile that a sizeable chunk of the Celtic support spew out.

mickmaroon Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Editorial in this morning's Hootsmon. A rare piece of sanity: http://sport.scotsman.com/celticfc/Leader-Celtic-also-have-a.6767978.jp Leader: Celtic also have a role in beating sectarianism Published Date: 14 May 2011 Security at tomorrow's Scottish Premier League title deciders involving Celtic and Rangers is to be, in the words of Strathclyde Police, "as big an operation as we have ever mounted". More than 1,000 officers will be deployed across the region. There will be a "ring of steel" around Celtic Park and at Rugby Park in Kilmarnock. If this is to be the face of Scottish football, it is a deeply depressing prospect. No less depressing is the view that we are witnessing the surfacing of anti-Catholicism endemic across all walks of Scottish life. While sectarian violence and boorish behaviour are to be deplored, it is deeply inaccurate and inflammatory to suggest this is but one manifestation of more widespread hatred and intolerance of Catholics. The vast majority of Scots simply do not recognise their country in this caricature. Others may well see it as an attempt to deflect attention from the need for club officials to take responsibility. But such is the extremity of thinking behind the assertion this is a problem for which all non-Catholics shoulder some blame, even attempts at reasoned denial are denounced as evidence of the depth of prejudice. Denial becomes evidence for the prosecution - maybe Celtic chairman John Reid hasn't quite left his Communist days behind. Certainly, we must be vigilant in seeking to repel, isolate and eradicate sectarianism, but this is a symptom of wider social problems like the culture of drug and alcohol abuse and violence fed and fuelled at football grounds. Celtic cannot shrug off their responsibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad Craig Levein came across so well, It disgusts me what is being said about my beloved Hearts. I hate anything to do with secterian rants. I have followed Hearts since I was a wee lassie, and went to the games with my beloved Dad (god rest him), worked to pay for my season ticket like many other fans, then for some half wits like galloway,Nicholas, Lambert and Guidi to slag us off saying we should be banned closed etc., when the scum of the earth get off scot free, it really is time for something to be done about it.
