Probably every fans group do things the club don't approve of, but The Green Brigade's worst crimes appear to be singing Irish rebel songs, and displaying banners with political points.

If you compare that with threatening to riot through the city centre if the police don't agree to 15,00 fans taking over George Square on a Saturday evening, that surely must come way down the list of daft stuff fans do?

I was speaking about the daft stuff inside the grounds.
The bigotry.
I've made plenty of other comments about the behaviour of fans in the city centre.

I know its an old chestnut, but I doubt people of Irish descent see songs about Irish Republicanism as sectarian, any more than Scottish people would see Flower of Scotland as sectarian.

Personally, I'm not in favour of any songs about wars being sung at sporting events, I would prefer it to be all about the football. People just attach the sectarian tag to both sets of supporters, but when it comes to real sectarianism, there is no comparison.

Iirc, you said I was obsessed and a bigot, because a posted videos of your fellow supporters rampagingtheir way through Glasgow city centre.

Now it's obsession when I point out Police Scotland are being sued for £100 million ( A HUNDRED MILLION POUNDS! lol) because their TRIFC supporting officers abused their powers and carried out illegal searches, and intimidate people by singing sectarian songs at them! No wonder they don't want videos of sectarian singing to be investigated. :)

I'm beginning to think supporters of Club 12 just hurl these insults around to try and deter people from pointing out what they, and their club, have been doing.

I think even your pal plastic Paddy on here knows your obsessed. Mentalists both of you!
