i think the papers are blowing this out of proportion. Healy was only messing about with the celtic fans i for one dont think he's a bigot its just the papers looking for a story
He's definately not a bigot - he just didn't think before he acted and should have known better. The whole thing's a bit draft, but the reaction of the newspapers has been rediculous, it would be different if he was a loyalist on the wind-up but since he's always been a big supporter of the IFA's 'Football for All' project IMHO I'd say it was a naive mistake.

Funny how the newspapers who over-reacted to this haven't made much comment about the fact that Healy seemed to be singled out for abuse from some in the Celtic support because he's a Nordie prod ("Where were you on the Twelfth" etc). Fair enough, Healy was daft but the issue of the OF's behaviour is glossed over yet again.
