Right Im irish Yeah. And Out Of The Two, i Prefer Rangers. If I Say This To any Of The Lads The amount of Abuse I Get Just Because Apparently Rangers are protestant and celtic are just so catholic. :S

Im a catholic but i see no problem with supporting rangers in the SPL.
i have no issue With any Other Religion Whatsoever, And People Who Do Are generally Just Up Their Own arses In My Opinion.

id Love Your views On This, particularly the irish lads.

Jay.
 
im irish and wouldnt dream of suporting rangers, but that probable just from the way if been brought up, irish people feel a conection with celtic as it was set up by an irish priest and tbh if i was with you i would prob give you abuse about it but only messin like, our can support who you like

Yeah Sure When You Think About It, Im sure 95% of The Clubs In England Are Set up By Protestant People.
Like My Dad Would Support Aberdeen In The SPL.
Would You Give Him Abuse About that ?

Why exactly did you start a thread on such a edgy topic and decide to start up, what seems to be, an argument?
 
It's really a religion politics thing, neither should be mixed with football in my view.

no i wouldnt give him abuse about that because they are not rivals, if i suported Man U and you supported City i would give you abuse
+ i think this is a good thread if anyone feels offended y it then they shouldnt read it

This thread is destined for arguments..

I Just Thought It Would Be a Good Topic, If The Moderators Dis-approve, or there is arguements it shall be closed.
but i do want to just keep it at a sharing of opinions, everyones entitled to one of those i guess:p
 
iTS MUCH MORE THAN PROTESTANT AND CATHOLIC. WAS AT THE LAST OLD FIRM GAME AT IBROX AND THERE WAS MEANT TO BE A MINUTE'S SILENCE BUT THE CELTIC FANS WHERE TALKING AND SOME SHOUTING "IM GLAD THE ORANGE ******* IS DEAD."
ITS MORE THAN RELIGION..YOUR TALKIN ABOUT BRITAIN AND IRELAND. A TEAM WHO SOME OF ITS FANS ARE AGAINST HAVING A POPPY EMBROIDERED ON THEIR TOP FOR ARMISTICE DAY BUT YET THEY WILL HAVE A THING FOR FAMINE DAY.
IM NOT TALKING ABOUT ALL CELTIC FANS BUT SOME OF THEM.

Sorry for the caps..
 
I'm Irish, I'm a Catholic but I couldn't care less about Celtic this, Rangers that. Support a team that plays good football that you enjoy.

What does my head in is clowns that find it appropriate to wear Celtic tops to Ireland international matches. If you want to support Celtic during international matches then go watch Scotland (and vice versa)

And In My Opinion, Those People Are A Disgrace To Football And The Integrity Of The Game. No matter What Religion, People Are People, And a Football Match is a Football match.

Pulling examples of the extremes of one side does not better your argument. I'm positive Rangers fans have shouted things far worse than that.
As for the Celtic fans against the Poppy, that's not a point against the clubs fans, that's referring to the Nationalist Community.....

I think a mod should close this thread, many people here are far too young and do not understand the politics behind the troubles to get into an argument about it.
 
People are people, but there are those that ruin it and take it completely too far. Some of my best mates are Rangers fans. ****, half my family are Rangers fans and we just take the **** out of each other at times :p.

It cleary is refering to some of the clubs fans. They set up a protest outside parkhead about it they issued flyers about it. Sky Sports had to mute the crowd last season because they booed the mintes silence on Armistice day. I dont care what team it is that is undefendable you cant justify that.

If you had read my post and saw whom I supported, you could see that I could not possibly be offended. I just find that, people should not argue on something such as the Troubles if they have NO idea what the reasons were behind them. Not just the black and white scenario of Protestant vs. Catholic.
