Those are hardly controversial stances.

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.

As a catholic, f the Pope. Couldn't care less about the RA though (they make catchy songs).

Is it bad I laughed at this? Serious question. It was just the absurdity of it.

I did too, ignore the flair.
