We need to stop giving them ammo. It's not difficult. Just don't mention fen'ian or pope. The media is what the media is. That is a separate battle and it's going to be difficult to change that, but we can't do it if we start giving both the media and Celtic fans open goals. They are delighted that these songs are being sung, they want them sung and if the guys involved can't see that they are actually doing the haters jobs for them then it's going to be a struggle to do anything in this battle. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of realism is also required. There's no need for our fans to stop singing about religion and politics and it's not going to happen short term anyway. The list of stuff they can't sing has to short and has to be banned. It can't be just because some people don't like it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether they should or should not be sung is a different argument. I don't have a problem with The Sash or Derry's Walls being sung by Rangers fans but there may be those who do. However turning round and trying to get people to stop singing them is pointless as it's not going to happen. We need to conmcentrate on the stuff that we can hopefully get them to stop singing. Certain songs are banned because they are demed offensive, not because people don't like them. A different matter entirely. Many don't like the Sash or TFOA but they aren't banned. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juancornetto 1 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Guys, there was a full scale riot in Dundee. Running battles in the concourse, seats and property damaged, fans pissing in the stands etc etc etc and we're front page news for singing about the Pope? Come on now... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on now... two wrongs dont make a right. but the double standards are there for all to see. its something the club should make clear is unacceptable. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
