I was at the game and both my children saw the banner. Unfortunately they hear and see things all the time that ideally I would rather they didn't, not just at football matches.

The “anti social” behaviour at matches appears to be on the rise again - chants , banners , fighting etc

People want to take their kids to watch the match and get them supporting their team etc but it’s not great when they are subjected to poor behaviour.

Not sure if it’s a new crowd that are responsible for the rise or it’s just been hidden and not reported as much now

You’re clearly an old man living in the dark ages, young children are seeing that and you think it’s ok, Suppose you took your grandchildren to the game and asked what the C word was, what would you say?
I really couldn’t care less what team it is, it’s just not right.

What’s worse, seeing a swear word on a banner, or listening to thousands of people singing sectarian songs?

Both are bad and need to stop

Like asking who is worse between R Kelly and Jimmy Saville.

Unbelievable Jeff.

Both are equally as bad? Hardly!

Oi @rudebhoy time to stop digging

The old firm really are a stain on the underpants of Scotland. Oh what it would be to admire them from afar.

Not digging at all. Was making a valid point. You might not agree with it, but that doesn’t mean it’s not valid. I’ll leave it at that.

Good decision

So, if "your" club isn't perfect, why are you always on here pointing out the failings of the old firm?

I think you know the difference between the shortcomings of the Old Firm and those of most if not all other clubs in Scotland.

I am not a regular at football games these days but in the 90s you heard sectarian language at most (every) ground I visited.

Well if I was supporting either of the OF clubs and travelled around then so would I . Thankfully my parents so detested the bigotry of the OF they dissuaded us from supporting either of them. They failed with my brother, though somewhat unusually he started with Celtic before changing sides a few years later.

Smart a*se. I meant from the fans of the home club.

Your brother must have had the brains in the family.

I was with him at Parkhead for an OF match and he decided that he didn’t like what was going on around us in the Celtic end (though he usually stood in the jungle) so he asked a policeman if we could go to the Rangers end…he looked a bit bemused but agreed to his request
