Big turnout? Half a dozen plastic Paddy's and a dug, who no doubt support the (British State) Union.

[COLOR=#000000:9aff7716]It is very important to continue to oppose this attempt by Alex Salmond to criminalise the Celtic Support; his proposals were opposed by every MSP out with his own party in Parliament last week.
Joe you are guilty of being naive/gullible if you believe the other political parties opposed the legislation, as it was they who proposed the changes back in August when the bill went through the parliament.
If you remember when the SNP said they would take stock of the concerns the other parties had for the sectarian bill and decided not to steam roller it through parliament and become 'Bully Boy Politicians'.
The only reason the other (Unionist)parties are now trying to distance themselves from this legislation is due to the outcry from all sides of the footballing spectrum and see it as a way of attacking the SNP.

Hi Joe.
I really dont know enough about the campaign but could you clarify what you mean in relation to ''thier history and culture''. this is where fans I know are confused.
At the weekend again there was songs in support of the ira, this is despite a request from peter lawell stating that these songs are embaressing the club, what is the supporters association doing about this. this is becoming a real divisive problem amongst fans.

The comment "plastic paddy" says an awful lot about the poster. Someone recently made the point that the term "plastic paddy" gets used quite a lot and yet if the person were to say "plastic paki" they'd probably be in bother, which seems to show that being anti Irish would appear to be quite acceptable here. Strange little cuntry really.

We are happy to meet with the Club and the other major supporters groups to have a debate on that very issue, i believe it may happen sooner rather than later.
