Why was ex-Celtic media man Tony Hamilton at the Rangers game on Saturday?

offensive my backside. its a fashion accessory ffs.

 

I'm honestly not trying to be a smart-arse here, but it's incredibly simple:

"Rosary beads are a fashion accessory" - Not offensive.

"Rosary beads are embarassing mumbo-jumbo from the middle ages" - Not offensive: There's a coherent argument there.

"Fuck your roasary beads" - Offensive: It's gone from being a criticism to being abusive.

 

It's the same as writing "You're wrong" wouldn't be deemed offensive, but writing "Fuck you" would by the mods on this forum.

again it illegal because its offensive, if you dont like that take it up with a lawyer.

you can sing no pope of Rome to your hearts content as long as you take out the add on about fucking you rosary beads.

 

That is correct and if you omit "fuck" you will apparently be fine.

Does it really matter why he was there? What happened on Saturday we did to ourselves......

You're right. Once it was out in the "twittersphere" (or whatever) that some were intending to give it the full songbook, an orchestrated campaign of complaints was inevitable. That would happened regardless of Hamilton's presence.

 

Even so - I'd still like to hear an explanation of why he was there...

Lmao I started the its simple thread asking fans to keep religion out of football. Do try and keep up.

 

keeping up just fine pal, maybe misread your quote though, perhaps you could explain the "what on earth is wrong with that bit?" question you asked?

 

Were you referring to the "you can sing no pope of Rome to your hearts content " part or was it the " add on about fucking you rosary beads." bit, not sure.

 

ta much.

And this is why our club will never rid itself of this serious problem.

 

Serious problem get a grip, its not been a problem never mind serious for years, stop believing Timmy propaganda.

Timmy highlights and exaggerates the problem at every opportunity, but it's not them that's decided it's no longer acceptable.

Come on mate, do you really believe that?

 

This all started with the perma-offended Thims, everybody was quite happy with the 90 mins of bigotry and away home to your Catholic or Protestant wives and pals. They opened this can of worms and did it in such a way as we are the only ones being held to their rules.

 

Quite outstanding work from them, and we all fell hook line and sinker for it.
