Bluedell 5,408 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I don't mean to be patronising here, but this could go in circles. Have you ever heard a converstaion go along the lines "Dont tell anyone I told you that". And the response comes back "told me what? I didn't hear anything". I believe the above analogy fits with where a certain poster (with a reputation for negativity :smile:) is coming from i.e. 'washing dirty linen in public' and all that. If you don't want it mentioned then don't mention it. Don't start telling lies about it. That is what the other crowd do. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anchorman 0 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 The Billy Boys were a murderous Glasgow gang who went about destroying lives. Thought you might have knew that. You obviously THINK you do! BTW you forgot about - rape, kidnapping, burning villages and stealing harvest! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Why does it always have to be old songs? Can't we do something new for once? There's plenty of modern anthemic tunes around. Why do we have to always be so anachronistic? TBB is a good tune to sing loud but the problem is that our idiotic, stuck in the past attitude killed it for us. And if other clubs sing it, why would we want to? Let's set ourselves apart. Find a tune, use it and when others copy, find another. Be leaders, not just one of the crowd. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,408 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 it isnt banned in scotland, is it? THe offending line is covered by the Offensive Behaviour at Football and Threatening Communications (Scotland) Act 2012 it was allegedly banned by uefa when we played in europe. i am not sure we ever saw proof though, did we? I've seen the relevant part of the letter that the club say came from UEFA. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anchorman 0 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Fullerton was a fascist and I'm fairly sure his gang used to happily slashed people. Your 'nothing more, nothing less comment' is astounding. It's not quite that simple now is it? Fullerton is not someone to hold up as merely a rascal. He was also inherently racist. Another drama queen! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMazza 0 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Another drama queen! LOL, where's the drama in the truth? This is a debate is it not? If you wish to tell me where I'm wrong, then carry on but responding with only 'drama queen' does nothing to further your points. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You reckon? :smile: "I'm fairly sure his gang used to happily slash people" - Quick phone the papers. Exclusive! Glasgow gang in the 50's and 60's possibly slashed people!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow gang in the 50's and 60's possibly slashed people!! I'm failing to see your point. They did. It's well known, no need to call anyone. You said they were just a gang of guys. I added they slashed people (hence the razor gang distinction). Just because it happened years ago doesn't mean a) it's not relevant or b) they were actually nice people, just misunderstood. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,434 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I disagree as I think we should use the tune but just update it. Uefa cannot ban a melody surely. See post 49. We would ahve to take this debate to UEFA and try to reason with them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
