A number of sick jokes by all accounts, jokes that if they were about blacks or gays would probably have seen him struck off. A pathetic excuse for a man if ever there was one.

You are right about a lot of things Ian but in this case I'm not so sure.
It was the old smoky room 'For fuck sake is that another pope died' routine. Hardly OTT offensive. I agree with earlier posters that in this case it really is PC gone mad. If I was out with work colleagues and made some derogatory comments about HOMFC I wouldn't expect it to go further. My own opinion is that he is an Aunt Sally figure for the handwringing PC brigade and establishment Sellik-minded types to bash and hence you have this scenario.
Interestingly enough Donald Findlay is an athiest, not a Protestant, but an athiest.
In many respects he's a tool such as in his choice of football team, pished sing-songs and political party but he is a brilliant advocate of the law and if I was ever up on a murder trial I'd want him defending me.
