Bluedell 5,356 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Over thee last few years, a number of Rangers fans, including myself, have been vocal in their criticism of the H word, due to its sectarian connetations. I was just having a look at Paul Elliott's blog and found the following entry which may be of interest as it's on a similar theme, and may be of use in any future campaigns. "On another Chelsea connection, I met David Baddiel recently who is looking at making an advertising film to highlight the fact that the word 'yid' is a racially offensive term. I support David's work and will be getting involved. The use of this term has gone unchallenged for too long and often leads to overt anti-semitism. Abusive terms like this just don't have a place in football anymore, whatever the context and we need to educate people as to its meaning." http://the-elliott-blog.blogspot.com/ 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmck 117 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 i think if the celtic fans just had a bit thicker skin they could've gotten past all this sanitising of the support. now that it's started though, 'hun' has to go, if ****** and other words like it are now the worst thing in the world. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
