I feel totally sympathetic towards Steve Clark, what he said was bang on.

The religious biggitory that exists in Scotland in the year 2019 is beyond farcical.
People are living in the bloody dark ages still!

I can still recall being screamed at as being a Fenian Barsteward, having to fun for my skin as my school was wedged between 2 protestant high schools.

One of the reasons I jumped at moving to Australia, so my kids wouldn't have to hear it.

By no way am I saying all our fans are squeeky clean.

Sadly, this is something we're never going to get rid of in my opinion. I live in the East, and wouldn't say for one minute it's as bad as what we see and hear over in the West. But it's there, and it does rear it's ugly head from time to time. I'm ex forces, and can recall being called fenian numerous times during my service. That was early 80s going into the 90s. I've been offshore 20 odd years and can still remember being asked " what fit do you kick wi" by a manager on first meeting. So it's there, and it's everywhere, and it will continue to be there. Where we, as Celtic supporters can help ourselves, is to concentrate on supporting the team, sing the "Celtic" songs, and don't give the media and "peepul" an excuse to question or run us down. Hail hail.

The funniest part is that these people pretend to be a Christian.

And some of our flock need to look at themselves the sectarian abuse handed out to big fat Kris was just as bad.

I grew up a leapar in my own family because I support Celtic. Didn’t even know what a fenian was aged 10 but got called it all the time by cousins, uncles etc.

My dad was questioned why he was ‘allowing’ me to behave in such a manner. Thankfully he didn’t care about football either way.

I’m not catholic, or even religious for that matter.

That’s just life in this part of the world, unfortunately.
