    Its simple enough you said you didn't want people like Keith supporting our team I presume this is because of his at times bigoted views. I was merely stating we have bigots with opposite views to him in our support.
    See nothing to difficult
    If I am wrong about your reasons I am sure you will put me right :p

    Well I can deduce from this a couple of things one being you walk about with your eyes and ears shut. Another is your deluded if you believe there are no bigots in the Republic of Ireland support

    Examples well being told and not just once or twice varying wordings along the lines of "Your an Orange Bastard and have no right supporting Ireland"
    "**** off and support NI you Rangers Scum" etc etc

    And there wasn't any insults in what I said I will stand by it every word

    Broxi, I'm not for a second condoning the above, obviously you have as much right as anyone to support Ireland

    My question is, is calling someone a dob an example of bigotry? I'm not disputing that its offensive, but the reference to the orange order may not necessarily be religiously motivated

    Have you been on the end of those insults? Sorry to hear that. I dont doubt there are bbigots in our support but genuinely i havent come across them.

    So calling someone deluded is not an insult?? Anyway fire away, i've a thick skin

    Yes I have and many more of a similar type

    I will apologise what I said I was a wee bit angry and the no bigots comment but that is no excuse for my behaviour

    This is my point though, they're not a religion, they're separate to the religion. People may have legitimate gripes with the Orange order that aren't religiously motivated, so I think the argument could be made that the term dob, while highly offensive, is not sectarian

    Try telling that to Police in Scotland along with the term Fenian Bastard the point is they used the tern OB to mean Protestant of that I have no doubt so in my mind its bigoted

    Yes I can admit when I am wrong and I said these things in temper I presume you didn't realise we had some lowlifes in our support because you have had no reason to encounter them

    And you will find I am always man enough to apologise if its warranted ;)

    It seems celtic fans have nothing to talk about in regards to their own team, so the next best thing is to talk about The Rangers.

    Not really Paul they have been hitting us a lot harder than you so those numbers don't surprise me I won't be surprised to see you lot catch up fairly soon ;)

    Even funnier you are trying to take some sort of moral high ground with these numbers

    Not at all, just keeping things in perspective mate. Are you suggesting The Rangers have been unfairly targetted?

    This below is taking moral high ground if ever I saw it:

    Hardly taking the moral high ground I pointed out you would have plenty to talk about
    No I am not suggesting that at all as I have said we deserve all we get of morons sing songs
    But there seems to be some sort of shock among many tic fans that you are being liked at and that is what I find funny for years a significant amount have sung songs glorifying a proscribed terrorist organisation and got away with it I don't think they will anymore
    As I have repeatedly said I remember when songs were sung and people just got on with it.

    It is always off the field discussions these days with celtic fans. If it isn't the tax case, it is offensive singing. Perhaps a discussion on how The Rangers are walking to the title would be good. And I say that because it seems no matter how bad the result is for celtic, Neil Lennon will still have a job.

    It is rather incredible. Any other manager and he would be sacked by now.
