   I think that it is incredibly sad, that yet again the poppy has been highlighted for political reasons.


   I take on board brontebillys comments earlier, but its an oppurtunity to pay respects to all the people who lost their lives serving their country,If you want , remember the ones who died at the Somme etc, and not the ones who died in Ireland, but to be so disrespecful to all those who died in the WWs in partic, is so unbelievably insensitive, and disrespectful, it should make any decent Celtic fan thoroughly ashamed.

  I really hope they do what they said they would do, and ban them for life.

Your deeds would shame all the devils in hell Ireland Iraq Afghanistan no blood stained poppy on our hoops.

As they have freedom of speech they are perfectly entitled to have a banner saying that.

I however, have the right to call them a bunch of bigoted, braindead, oxygen thieving ****** who don't have a fucking clue.

This is one of those moronic prejudices that gets passed on from generation to generation.  I doubt if many of those who took part have any sort of ideological commitment to what they were doing.

You can only hope that sooner or later this kind of thing will die out.  However, you can never underestimate the stupidity of some people.

Possibly not, although they certainly went out of their way to do it and there must have been a fair few of them involved.   They certainly didn't have commitment to spelling lessons when they were at school.

Maybe they were trying to replicate the sound of the Glaswegian accent? (Not in any way supporting this, I think it's disgusting)

Making a point about poppies is crass and insensitive. However, displaying a banner against the presence of British troops in Afghanistan and Iraq is not. These people should realise that to get their point accross they should not be making enemies with people who want to remember the war-dead. But those wearing poppies should also take moment and remember the 100s of thousands that our government has killed and maimed in recent years.

.. what context does that comment have regrading this point?

I should imagine they are too thick to even understand the meaning of the banners they were holding up.

I'd like to stick a very large, and very jagged poppy right up their collective hoops.

I don't want to detract from the stupidity of these Celtic fans but I had a similar feeling when I read that the British Legion had launched this year's appeal in the grounds of Europes largest arms dealer BAE Systems who sponsored the event.

Bunch of c***s. I don't have much more to add really.

And they still suggest that Rangers are the bigots and they are the poor, put upon club that gets tarred with teh same brush? Dear me.

Rangers are just as much bigots as Celtic fans. They have UFV / UDA supporters clubs going over to Rangers matches from the ShankilL Road and Sandy Road. They also sing about being up to their knees in Fenian blood. Both sets of fans are embarrassing to football. They always have been and always will be.
