Re: The Old Firm Thread How can you remove the sectarian hatred that exists between Rangers and Celtic? It was going on long before either club existed and without doubt still exists today. In an Old Firm thread you are dicing with it and you are going to get diehards from each side mingling, and deep down they hate each other.
A lot of the players than play for the clubs today will not understand it, Gazza made an effort when trying to play the flute, the wrong way, in front of the Celtic fans. He thought it was banter, its not, theres pure hatred between large parts of both sets of fans. I find it hard to see how there can be banter between the two teams, there are many that can have a laugh between each other, theres a hell of a lot that don't, and theres plenty that just want to kill each other even now.
You can't take that element away from either club, and they merely say its just banter now. Its about as far from it as it ever was. |
