Subject: RE: BS: Racial Slurs in Quotations From: akenaton - PM Date: 05 Dec 10 - 06:06 PM There' a lot of Celtic abuse in Glasgow.....Go there any Saturday afternoon and you'll see thousands of blue uniformed Glaswegians shouting "Fuck the Celts!!" I know all about that. Rangers supporters call the Celtic "Fenians", which is more likely used as a term to describe Catholics rather than Irish heritage. And Celtic fans call the Rangers "Huns". The league has cracked down on this in the past few years, banning sectarian songs and comments from fans. Now, I think that religious and political behavior shown by fans of any team can cause their team points in the standings, and they can be banned from the games. Just before Remembrance days, there were fans waving anti-poppy banners, and the Celtic officials were on the search to find out who they were so they can be banned from the games.
