Game's gone
Is it bad I laughed at this? Serious question. It was just the absurdity of it.
I did too, ignore the flair.
shocking stuff
I agree with those chants
Right? What's the issue?
Because they aren’t saying them for any other reason than bigotry and hating Irish catholics.
Like I’m not religious and don’t go to mass but I was born catholic and a certain segment of the population only cares about that last part.
And saying fuck the IRA is a wee bit hypocritical when most people who say it are flag shaggers who worship the army.
Whereas Celtic fans chants are full of enlightened bonhomie. Ha ha
Flag shaggers 🤣
While Celtic are wall to wall Palestine flags even now
Have no love for the army, fuck the IRA they bombed my home.
Chanting it at a guy who has nothing to do with either because he is Irish?
Surely they could have just sung about the crayon on his arms
Family club
As a catholic, f the Pope. Couldn't care less about the RA though (they make catchy songs).
Those are hardly controversial stances.
Glad you said it. I mean a terrorist organisation and the public face of the world’s biggest investment vehicle who dabble in child abuse. Hardly paragons of virtue are they.
Probably more it was directed at one person?
I think the Pope can handle it
The thing is they weren’t casually chanted, they were chanted to abuse McClean.
Bottom of this thread really is a lesson in 'Introduction to sectarian football for the English'.
Also when did Millwall become Rangers?
A lot of the people chanting were kids. I'm sure the Pope would've been thrilled.
MIIIIIIIIIIIIILL
Free speech 🤷🏻♂️
Not free from consequences
What a club
Is there a chart for what chant topics are allowed and not? I know of racist and homophobic not being allowed. But this one?
This is racist chanting
The Brits are at it again, I see
Its quite quaint seeing people upset about this. I hear that exactly phrase constantly
Wouldn't have thought to see the pope and IRA together in a sentence
are chants like usually panished? cause i heard other clubs chant things like this and nothing happen
I imagine it’s the pope bit rather than the IRA bit
When you step into the millwall ground you go through a space time portal that transports you back to 1987. It is truly a marvel
Disdain for religion. Disdain for terrorism. What exactly is the problem
McClean isn't involved in either, directed at him it is meant as abuse. Seeing opposition to it is like lads who can't see the problem with "all lives matter!".
So,is the game gone or?...
