Thread Name: the Rangers 'Famine Song'
Subject: RE: the Rangers 'Famine Song'
In my humble opinion it's all a load of mince. The "sellick" fan who complained really has to look at himself in the mirror. Songs of this ilk have been chanted at games everywhere for years. What about scousers singing about the Munich air disaster when they play Man U? What about Arsenal's unsavourty anti-semitic songs directed at Spurs? What about Everton's 1970's dittie about being "all white"? The problem with celtic fans is that they are easily offended and some go out of their way to be. Yet when anybody mentions IRA songs or pro PLO banners or wishing Nacho Novo would die by an IRA sniper's bullet then they take the morale high ground. They of course aren't all like that as aren't the Rangers support but to involve a foreign diplomat in something that happened at a Scottish football ground is beyond belief. Just for the record i think the "fan" who complained was more upset at his team being humped 4 2 on their own ground to be honest.
