Just in case clarification is needed, I'm saying that bigotry is a
minority sport, and I don't believe that there are a higher proportion
of gers fans who are bigots, than tic fans. If I make it protestant v
catholic, I'd still stand by the statement that the proportion of
bigots will be the same. The only reason there are more protestant
bigots, is because there are more protestants (we can factor in
muslims, sikhs and athiests if you want - but I think the percentage
will be about the same for each).

I would agree that bigotry is a minority activity, as most of us, probably
excepting Willie ;-), are grown up enough to realise that it is a pointless
exercise. Thank you for that comon sense interlude.

Sorry to butt in here on what is obviously a personal argument, but to
answer your question. I think you'll find that this is an allusion to mental
illness. Oh and you missed out the most important category of person's
making a joke out of mental illness - those who have been there, lived to
tell the tale and are now quite entitled to laugh about it - look
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I couldn't. It would be hard to find a strait jacket outside of the

bejayzus it's warm in here......
keep wriggling, I'm sure you honestly believe that someone will eventually
believe you. You've been caught red handed and are hereby found guilty of
gross hypocrisy and being as you are so very obviously one of that group
which can never ever see fault in their own actions it's obviously pointless
me attempting to help you along the way, but hey let's try anyway.
Let me leave you in no doubt as to what context you words were put by you
but you won't admit it. You put someone down -quite rightly- for making fun
of the mentally Ill and then in a stunning display of double standards
replied some way further down the thread with a similar insult. That's how
it was, that's how it is, that's what you said, that's what you meant.
Now do me a favour and admit it. Andra.
Surely you can't mean
"I couldn't. It would be hard to find a strait jacket outside of the
establishments you frequent."
To my mind & surely to any normal thinking person that would imply that I
was suggesting to the person to whom I was replying that I was doubting HIS
sanity & in no way could it be construed as a denigration of mental illness.
But then again you are so attuned to my thoughts that you know better than
me how it is, what I say & what I mean.

If a child can reach over the top of its head and touch the left eear with

Maybe he saw the kid do this?

*That* type of chant is wholly different from joining in with follow,
follow or the billy boys, and to be teaching it to someone who is not

I'll let it go this time Ross, but before you attempt something like
that again on me you might consider working on your character
judgement skills.
So does that mean it was me you were wooshing, or the erstwhile
Morrison who was getting the woosh? You're right that I called him a
schizo because he said "we're" but it wasn't a comment on his grammar,
it was a comment on the fact that he thought he was speaking for
everyone, when he was clearly speaking for himself.
Cheers
Ah thank you for clearing that up =) It makes the whole thing even
funnier, to think that the honourable Mr Morrison thought he was being
defended ;-)
Reel this one in boys. we've got a real live one here. Read the rest of my
posts moron and work out where I'm posting from. It certainly ain't from my
home in Luton at the moment boy.
Reading skills were unfairly distributed among some of you. You certainly
never got a fair share.
I NEVER said you posted from Luton. I asked the question do you live in
Luton.
I was going to read some of your other posts but the first one that came up
was inviting some guy round the Mary Kate to enjoy a knuckle sandwich. I'll
pass on the rest lamebrain.
No I don't think the guy was trying to defend me but WHOOOOOSH is
WHOOOOOOOSH & he knew it was way above some people's comprehension. Not in a
nasty way jusy some people think different.
Need any more explanation just ask.
No Graeme, it's not wholly different at all. You've just realised how
unacceptable the example is and think you'll look good if you say you find
it unacceptable. There is nothing less desirable about the father shouting
"fuck the pope" than you singing about being "up to your knees in fenian
blood" or even when you sing "Follow Follow" I'd put money on the fact that
you sing the bastardised version of that, including the line "Fuck the Pope
and the Vatican" and before you even try your mock 'I'm insulted, you don't
even know me' post - you sing Billy Boys with the rest of the crowd because
it creates an atmosphere and everyone else sings it, I can't imagine you'd
be stupid enough to join in these songs just because everyone else sings
them but change the line in Follow, Follow back to the traditional "Even up
to Aberdeen" so don't even try and pretend that you find something offensive
about the guy shouting "Fuck the Pope" when you still don't see anything
wrong with your bigoted, hate-filled songs.
You may be right in you're rant there, Ally, but the fact that a grown man
can encourage hid young daughter to shout "fuck the Pope" is a disgrace.
What kind of father is he? What kind of scum do they let into Ibrox?

ur right andrew - i didn't mean it in a nasty way . but due to your

up
>>can be found. We're waiting.
> Been a loony schizo long?
this was andy's post . his question "been a loony schizo long?" suggested
that your comment of "we're waiting" actually meant "i'm waiting" , and that
u somehow had the impression that others shared ur view whereas u were alone
in it . hence "schizo" suggesting some sort of dual personality on ur part .
your reply to this was ;
>Glad you picked up on the grammar mistake. So according to your own
>disclaimer. What does that make you. Fu*kwit.
where was the grammar mistake ? as far as i can see there was none . this
led to the "whoooooosh" comment as it appeared that andy's subtle joke had
gone over your head . you later however got this joke ;
>Hey dipstick. Who yae askin me or me?
this however was posted some 30 minutes after i had made the whoooosh
comment which at that time was valid .
i have tried to explain this to you two times already yet still you continue
to use my comment as some sort of defence ;
>No I don't think the guy was trying to defend me but >WHOOOOOSH is
>WHOOOOOOOSH & he knew it was way above some people's >comprehension
it was way above *your* comprehension - resulting in you not only missing
the joke but trying to use my comment as a defence . it was not above andy's
comprehension as he made the original "been a loony schizo long?" comment
and i'm pretty certain he new *exactly* what he was getting at - as did i .
now - please explain what "grammatical error" andy was allegedly picking up
on because i've looked and looked and i can't see it

Not at all. As I stated, teaching that to people who can't yet make

"A mans a man for a' that"
There are "religious" bigots on both sides of the divide, (but I have a hard
time believing that the majority of the bigots go to church except to hatch
match and despatch), just as there are racists throughout society etc. etc.
etc.
IMHO the sooner that bigotry, esp. Catholic v Protestant, is educated
out-the better. Try to remember that they are just both sects of the SAME
religion with differing viewpoints on how the church should be organised. I
don't care which branch of christianity you ascribe to, I just have respect
for those who have faith.

And how do you think all these teenagers in Ibrox learned the songs they're
singing? Just being in Ibrox is learning these songs when you can't make up
your own mind. Here's what worries me most about what you just said: You
obviously think you are old enough to make up your own mind but have decided
that these songs are acceptable. That's very worrying.

No thanks Graeme, you start answering some of these points and justifying
the fact that you sing these songs or admitting that you've seen the error
of your ways and then I might drop the attitude.

I'll explain it slowly (like the schizo joke, it's really too subtle
for you).
When you first arrived, you were capable of winding people up.
However, you are now are unable to manage it (on account of the fact
people have seen through you). Your ability to wind up, is now of the
past. It's gone. It is a former ability. Therefore, you, the small
minded troll, are now of the past. The time when you could wind
someone up, is gone. You're so far gone from everyone's mind, that
you're erstwhile. You're our erstwhile troll/bigot.
Now, you can carry on, saying what you want. Post what you want. Think
what you want. Lie about things (as usual) when you want. But everyone
here knows that I (and others) made you look a fool, with the same
ease that a hot knife slides into butter.
So, use your sophomoric wit to the best of your ability, and beg me to
flame you. You won't get anywhere, but we (i.e everyone) will get a
right old laugh.

You really should have said "woosh" as he didn't realise two things. A
I was satirising him, and B I was referring to several people, when I
said "we're" (kinda why I emphasised it so much - which you managed to
spot without a problem. Do you think maybe I am too subtle?)
a simple goot - ear - ezz will suffice but if u wanna be a smartarse then
try goot-ee-err-eth . i wouldn't suggest u name ur son after me tho' - u

There is, I would argue, a whole lot more meaning in it when the
latter is shouted, rather than the first one which is a line in a
song, and is not taken literally.

Well when I was a teenager in Ibrox singing the songs as you put it, I
had never been taught any by my dad. Most of them I had heard at games
and learned there. What my parents did offer is that it is OK to keep
any of the "bigoted" stuff in the ground as football rivalry, and that
out of the stadium everyone is equal and singing songs or using
bigoted chants could easily lead to violence against me. These are my
views, and I am equally as entitled to them as you are to have your
own.

replies to me.
so when it's shouted it is taken literally? But when it's sang it's not

Your views are, in my opinion and in the opinion of any sensible adult,
unacceptable. To try and justify your bigotry by saying you keep it within
a footbally ground is unacceptable. Singing these songs justifies sectarian
violence in the mind of bigots who hear 40,000 people singing about being up
to their knees in fenian blood. It's only a small step from singing these
songs to acting out the words in the minds of some people and your singing
these songs could and does lead to violence.

I'd say slightly more than a majority of people have a brain in their head
but having this brain has nothing to do with whether your actions are
acceptable or not. There have been intelligent men throughout history who
have seen nothing wrong with mass murder, rape, theft and numerous other
crimes that are unacceptable in the eyes of the majority. The fact that
these criminals had made their own mind up and decided their actions were
acceptbale doesn't mean that others shouldn't tell them they're wrong and
attempt to get them to change their ways.

No Graeme. What you do *is* of concern to me. People have been killed or
maimed for life after being attacked by small minded bigots who thought they
deserved it because they were fenians (read - Celtic fans), people like you
singing about killing 'fenians' (read - Celtic fans) can only worsen the
situation and as long as you, and people like you, remain ignorant to this
fact our country will always be divided by sectarian hatred.

Ally, no offence, but if you can't read my post thoroughly enough for
you to understand it, I don't see much point in replying to you with
an explanation of what I have just said.
UTTKIFB should not taken literally. FTP shows genuine hate of RC
religion.
Singing songs does not justify violence in the minds of those who are
stupid enough to commit bigoted acts. If they are going to do it they
will do it, even if 40,000 Rangers fans only sang Every other Saturday
and the Bluebells are Blue all the time.
And here's a question for you. If the violence/bigotry/sectarianism
was to stop outside of the stadium would you still have a problem with
the songs?

There is a wholesale difference between singing a song at a football
match and being the Yorkshire ripper. The fact that you can even
attempt to compare the two is lunacy on your part, and you really need
to take a reality check.

What a load of drivel. The hatred would remain, even if you take the
songs away. You, I and everyone else knows it. I'll continue to
support my team 100% and you or anyone else will not change that.
Case closed, goodnight and don't expect any more replies from me until
you take your head out the sand.
Naw....
fair enough.
> UTTKIFB should not taken literally.
Changed your mind? Obviously it shouldn't be taken literally, but a
minority do take it literally in that the singing of these songs justifies
secatarian violence in their minds
>FTP shows genuine hate of RC
> religion.
>
In your opinion. You're trying to make a distinction that's not there in my
opinion. Celebrating the death of 'fenians' which is being equated to the
death of celtic fans/catholics doesn't exactly show a lacking of 'genuine
hate' of the RC religion does it?
Violence/bigotry/sectarianism/intolerance will never stop outside stadia
until it's stopped within grounds. You don't really thinnk 40000 can sing
these songs on a saturday and show know signs of bigotry at any other time
do you?
no Graeme, my example makes my point. You seem to thikn that singing these
songs doesn't do anyone any harm and so if you think it's acceptable to sing
the songs then no-one has any right to try and stop you. You're wrong.
Singing these songs is disgusting. It embarasses our club and our city when
almost a whole ground can see no problem with shouting 'fuck the pope', no
problem singing about being 'up to their knees in fenian blood'. It's wrong
and you know it is.

I don't accept payment in Big Macs. Or fillet o fish. Maybe McChicken
sandwiches though.
I can support my team 100% without singing these songs, why do you equate
supprting your club 100% with singing Billy Boys? It will change Graeme and
hopefully you'll be the first one to learn the lesson that these songs are
unacceptable and you won't ever be able to support the club again.
> Case closed, goodnight and don't expect any more replies from me until

I'm the one with my head in the sand am I? Take a step back for a minute.
One of us thinks that our society can't be expected to improve until small
minded bigots like yourself realise that singing these songs does do harm
and is a problem that has to be dealt with. The other one thinks that
singing songs in a football ground does no-one any harm. He thinks our
society will always be this way and there's nothing that can be done about
it. He thinks that stopping these songs inside grounds will have absolutely
no impact on sectarianism in our society. Who's the one with their head in
the sand Graeme?

So does this reply not imply to you that I had immediately picked up that he
had zeroed in on the word We're & therefore that I knew perfectly well what
could be implied by his loony schizo remark. Thousands of people every day
use "we" out of context & apply it where in actual fact they mean I. I used
it in this context & not to infer that the rest of the NG shared any third
party view. He picked up on my misuse of the word so I pointed out his
sig/disclaimer.

seen the hidden joke & that he was going to find it difficult. To try to
help him make the association I then posted the who yae askin me or me jibe.

You're still struggling with it gutty. By specifically picking out *WE'RE* &
adding <snigger> indicates that he knew perfectly well what it implied first
time round. Therefore he could only have been picking up on my alleged
grammatical mistake. This being the fact I pointed out to him that he was a
fu*kwit & referred him to his own sig/disclaimer. Every person who has ever
written any article has made typos, misspellings & grammatical mistakes but
obviously being afraid of having these pointed out gives him a feeling of
inadequacy & he therefore seeks to protect himself from ridicule by using
the sig which he does. I entered this thread because I was pissed off with
his stock answers to posters i.e. bigot, sore loser & the positively
imbecilic habit of answering every question with a question & seeking to
belittle people trying to start a legitimate thread. How ironic that you
cannot comprehend the irony in me turning his words on himself. You & he
positively deserve each other.
oh - how convenient . the old " i posted but it didn't arrive excuse "

no it doesn't imply that - it implies that u misinterpreted his joke . maybe
u thought at first u had misspelled "we're"

How dare you make such assumptions without valid proof to back up your

Do you honestly think that you are so intellectually superior that only your
two selves (WHOOOOOSH) are capable of comprehending the word schizo.

FYI it means "To a warrior, his arms" (weapons not physical extremities,
just to be clear) and was the motto of the Royal Army Ordnance Corps prior
to its amalgamation into the Royal Logistic Corps.
I can say that I am on a sabbatical from Mary Kates but Serbian Pivo is vile

Well it will taste all the better when you get back to Luton.
Well done - correct, and to further confuse the issue the old man (rip)had
another make of russian car in the eighties an anagram of which could
possibly be dala (oh the deep deep opprobrium ). As a consequence, when I
first got an 'individual' car on the road I felt a strange necessity to
adopt an identity ( how terribly sad ). So in an homage to all of the above
the name of the german motor racing team zakspeed was borrowed and tweaked
hence the highly unimaginative and frankly pointless zilspeed.
As a reward for guessing a tiny wee part of the above you can now claim your
prize at www.zilspeed.freeserve.co.uk. - the latest incarnation of the
aforementioned 'individual' car.
P.S. you'll have to pick it up before 10.30 am tomorrow as it leaves for a
new exciting life in manchester then.

1. I was referring to One thousand pounds sterling. Put your money
where my mouth isn't Dunn.
2. Having a dig at my employment, whatever it may be? How big of you.
I don't see you taking a dig at painter/decorators, factory workers,
street sweepers, labourers, new deal £40 a week slaves and the like. I
enjoy what I do, and I am pretty sure I am paid well, and receive many
other benefits that make it worth my while.
Here's a suggestion for you Ally. Tell us all what you do for a living
so we can all be like you and sit and pick holes in it.
Or maybe we won't because we're a bit more civilised than that.

You have clearly got a problem with my employment since you have

bigot too?
