dune Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 (edited) So when we sing "hello hello we are Southampton boy" Are you offended? TBF, both songs originate from Marching Through Georgia... Edited 15 July, 2012 by dune
aintforever Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 The whole Celtic - Rangers thing is moronic. A cesspit of ignorance and hatred. However I expect these guys were just annoyed at Rangers being replaced and were just trying to shock people. There's little point being upset by it.

I'd have shook their hands if i'd been there being 100% SFC & Rangers.
aintforever Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 I'd have shook their hands if i'd been there being 100% SFC & Rangers. I don't mind fierce rivalry in football but fighting over religion is pathetic.
Turkish Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 I don't mind fierce rivalry in football but fighting over religion is pathetic. You obviously know nothing about the history of the two clubs.
JustMike Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 From what I saw and heard the Rangers fans were fine, laughing and good banter between them and others around them until the mong back board bashers turned it into hate. The Rangers guys reacted to that.
JPTCount Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 wow, good to see we have so many posters that support the rangers fans. just out of curiosity, and for the layman comparing it to the south coast, how many bullets were sent to Adkins this year, and I'm not sure if NC gets many death threats. our hate is based on a proximity and a dock strike, not hundreds of years of oppression. jus sayin...
latter day saint Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 our hate is based on a proximity and a dock strike, not hundreds of years of oppression. jus sayin... ffs ! i hope this was some form of sarcasm ?
Tokyo-Saint Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 Yes it was me. I knew you, charming man and sour mash were the same person!
JPTCount Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 ffs ! i hope this was some form of sarcasm ? that was my understanding but please enlighten me, my family have only lived on the south coast since the 80s so we havnt been part of the deep seated cultural war that exists here.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 that was my understanding but please enlighten me, my family have only lived on the south coast since the 80s so we havnt been part of the deep seated cultural war that exists here. The saints Pompey rivalry goes all the way back to the battle of the Boyne. That William of Orange has a lot to answer for - Skate b@stard!
Avenue Saint Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 None of that sectarian ****e here mate, thank you much.
docker-p Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 Anyone else in the Northam today near those Rangers fans? It was all a laugh and a bit of banter until they started singing sectarian chants. No f*cking place for that sh!te at my club. Apparently they moved to the Kingsland after the first game. W4nkers. Why would you go to somebody elses club and do that kind of thing? Disgraceful and has taken away any respect I may have once had for Rangers or their fans. Oh get over yourself you big girls blouse.
Griffo Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 What happened with 'back board bangers' and the Rangers lot?
Gambol2K9 Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 This forum depresses me more and more every day. If you can't understand why sectarian chanting is unacceptable than you're an idiot.
B Rabbit Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 Wanna fight about it? No, I'm going to start a new thread about you telling everyone how sh*t you are and leave it there.
Danbert Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 No, I'm going to start a new thread about you telling everyone how sh*t you are and leave it there. You're going down mate - I'll be waiting for you after school
latter day saint Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 that was my understanding but please enlighten me, my family have only lived on the south coast since the 80s so we havnt been part of the deep seated cultural war that exists here. i thought as a Saints fan you would know that is a big made up pile of sh*te concocted by skate bastards. i assumed everyone knew that. Southampton dockers never broke a strike down there. they have a history of striking themselves, so the idea of them breaking picket lines is silly. the skate bastards have repeated the lie so many times in books,articles & in documentaries people seem to believe it's true. oh & you have lived here about the same length of time as me, so no excuse

krissyboy31 Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 Setting aside the sectarianism, I did enjoy the "What division are you in?" chant because they still couldn't give a definitive answer.

St Chalet Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 Moving to the Lounge as we stopped discussing Saints very early doors on this one.
JPTCount Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 if you want to have a love in with the skates it's up to you, just make the most of it before they go pop and yet another supposed 'intelligent' poster on here fails to reply to a thread without resorting to trolling.
Verbal Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 I'd have shook their hands if i'd been there being 100% SFC & Rangers. You know nothing about Rangers, dune/Stanley. You're just a racist scumbag who's discovered opportunistically that you can vent your bigotry more indirectly by posing as anti-Catholic.
latter day saint Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 and yet another supposed 'intelligent' poster on here fails to reply to a thread without resorting to trolling. where the f*ck did you get the impression i was intelligent ? no trolling intended on my part, just couldn't believe a Saints fan didn't know it was lies. i've no idea where the rivalry stems from & don't really care. i don't like the skate bastards, your obviously don't mind. the world would be very boring if everyone agreed on everything.
Saint in Paradise Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 The saints Pompey rivalry goes all the way back to the battle of the Boyne. That William of Orange has a lot to answer for - Skate b@stard! I thought that "William of Orange" was the name of that pigeon used by British troops at Arnham in Sept 1944 during WW2
buctootim Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 The saints Pompey rivalry goes all the way back to the battle of the Boyne. That William of Orange has a lot to answer for - Skate b@stard! Nah. Its the Dál Riata, or some time before. Like most sectarian rucks there isnt usually any point, apart from 'he started it' .
Tokyo-Saint Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 I thought that "William of Orange" was the name of that pigeon used by British troops at Arnham in Sept 1944 during WW2 That was orange William, called so due to the unusual colouring of speckles on his left wing. Easily confused as they were both Dutch and had ambitions for the British throne. Btw is dune's name really Stanley?
Turkish Posted 15 July, 2012 Posted 15 July, 2012 (edited) I dont know what the problem is. I think some Rangers songs make valid points. Such as The famine is over, so why don't they go home? Its a perfectly reasonable question. Edited 15 July, 2012 by Turkish

Disgraceful and has taken away any respect I may have once had for Rangers or their fans. What sort of sh*t do Celtic fans sing ? Do they restrict it to Parkhead ? Do they f**k. Really, the way people have a pop at Rangers is supremely hypocritical.
pele Posted 16 July, 2012 Posted 16 July, 2012 I agree with Alpine.............................blimey that is something I thought I would never say!

Really, the way people have a pop at Rangers is supremely hypocritical. But Celtic fans werent singing at SMS on Saturday were they? If theres a friendly next season and they start on the rebel songs Im sure there will be a thread or nine about it.

If theres a friendly next season and they start on the rebel songs Im sure there will be a thread or nine about it. OK, so if it doesnt happen at SMS, it doesnt happen, is that what you are saying ? Bizarre. You either think the singing of sectarian songs is wrong, or you think taking offence to it is over-sensitivty.

This thread was started by a Saints fan about something he heard at SMS. Why is something that Saints fans didnt hear but may have happened at some old firm derby in Glasgow last year relevant to this Saints thread on the Saints Web about an event at a Saints game in Southampton?
SuperMikey Posted 16 July, 2012 Author Posted 16 July, 2012 I pity the people who have no problem with this. Like I said, if Anderlecht had started a song about killing Muslims or Jews we'd all be criticising them (well, the rational ones would), so why is this ok? And my lack of "life experience" (whatever that means) doesn't mean I can't be offended by blatant racism.

Because the real issue is not wee SuperMikey's poor ickle-wickle sensitive ears and sensitive disposition, its whether the singing of sectarian songs is generally acceptable/to be tolerated or not.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 16 July, 2012 Posted 16 July, 2012 What's wrong with a bit of harmless sectarian fun anyway? Especially during marching season, come on people, It's not as if anyone has every died from it. When is marching season in Southampton anyway?

So you think sectarian songs at matches is okay but that jokes about Fritzl, basements and Austria's greatest statesman are unacceptable?
This Charming Man Posted 16 July, 2012 Posted 16 July, 2012 What's wrong with a bit of harmless sectarian fun anyway? Especially during marching season, come on people, It's not as if anyone has every died from it. When is marching season in Southampton anyway? There was an Orange march last summer actually. Not sure if there's one this year. I'm not bothered about the marches and that side of things though, I'm not religious at all. I just enjoy singing sectarian songs and partaking in some light hearted bigotry every now and then when I'm up at Ibrox. Can't beat a sash bash after an Old Firm for a good sing song. Shame I won't be able to do that for a few years.

This Charming Man Posted 16 July, 2012 Posted 16 July, 2012 And you wonder why they went bust... I thought it was because they failed to pay their taxes and years of over-spending and mis-management. Are you saying the real reason they went bust is because they sing a few songs that offend the liberal, do-gooders of the world?
