Bluedell is right.

The BB is becoming more and more a apart of the weekly songbook and really needs to stop. IMHO.

Why do we not challenge the double standard hypocrisy coming from uefa then? I understand there are Irish influences within uefa but then we highlight this and go to court over their corruption and prejudicial treatment of our club in favour of the other on sectarian grounds.

The fact that someone else is guilty wouldn't make us any less guilty. Perhaps there were representations made. It's doubtful they would be made public.

 

The likes of Roma, Spartak Moscow, Zenit etc could all point the finger at others ass well, I'm sure, but it's no going to stop them being charged with various issues.
