Re: Gordon Smith Should Not Be CEO At The SFA..
The first defence of any bigot in NI is always "what about them 'uns".
The fact that Rangers fans need to be forced to confront such a repulsive issue, as opposed to doing so themselves out of basic decency, yet distract themselves with "we're being picked on" bullshit is almost hard to believe. Which OF team is being pressurised by the SFA ( To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 5 or greater.

“Everyone should be offended about ‘being up to our knees in Fenian blood’ or about hearing IRA songs. If those sorts of songs are sung then action should be taken,
Then why did they let the huns and gunts off with it when it was clearly heard on television To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 5 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. My heart bleeds for the cunts.

I am finding it hard to disagree with anything he says in that article. He's always seemed like a fair man to me.

Re: Gordon Smith Should Not Be CEO At The SFA..
grade A tosser. Who's worse isnt the issue here, it;s that these bigots exist inside the game. at which other scottish ground can you buy loyalist marching songs on cassette and a copy of BNP: Voice of the People?

“The issue of sectarianism is topical again but we have to be careful we don’t become oversensitive to it all,” he says. “You simply can’t make laws or rules just because people say they are offended. Rangers fans sing God Save The Queen and Celtic fans boo it: does that mean the national anthem is offensive? “Everyone should be offended about ‘being up to our knees in Fenian blood’ or about hearing IRA songs. If those sorts of songs are sung then action should be taken, but just to say that everything is offensive seems to me a dangerous road to go down.” Earlier in the article he leans a bit too far one way but ends with a pretty well rounded section so not the worst article i've read on the issue by a long way. Somebody's gonna be offended or critical no matter what he writes on this topic so fair play for writing anything on it at all.

Re: Gordon Smith Should Not Be CEO At The SFA..
His contributing to a work, however 'academic' and 'debate creating' in his position is for me entirely inappropriate, never mind what he actually says. He's shot gaping holes through his flimsy credibility.
Another contributor is a Govan MSP who says that she sings The Sash and it's not offensive to RCs. (I think this also damages the Scottish game as a whole, it makes us all look tarnished in UEFA eyes).

Larkhall has one high school called Larkhall Academy, which serves the surrounding region, including Stonehouse, Ashgill and Netherburn. Catholic pupils attend high school, Holy Cross, in Hamilton.

Re: Gordon Smith Should Not Be CEO At The SFA..
Smith says "But why is there a problem when Rangers come out and say similar things? Why is it a problem when Rangers come out and say they were set up by people from a Church of Scotland upbringing and that they have a Unionist background?” in the article, but what I'd like to know is.. in the 15 years that Rangers existed before Celtic were formed did their fans bother to celebrate their Loyalty and Church of Scotland roots..? or was that a knee-jerk reaction to their rivals across the city?
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 5 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. If Celtic had never existed, I have a feeling that Rangers would not have the reputation that they have today.. they'd have been unlikely to have had such an enmity towards Hibs as we would not be considered their local rivals. I suppose, basically what I'm saying is that the two teams have fed off each other and tried to outdo each other over the years tyrying to prove more and more how Irish/Unionist they are to the point that the origins of their hatred has become blurred... that's not to say however that if Celtic hadn't existed that we wouldn't have had problems, as the Rangers supporters would possibly have just latched on to something that made them different from Partick Thistle and made an issue of that.
