there is a debate in my house about the recent footage of the uefa cup final broadcast from the bbc 6.30pm. jackie bird commented on how the so called authorities would charge any st. petersburg fans found chanting racial abuse to any black players. In addition to this she also quoted that any rangers fans singing sectarian songs would also be reprimanded. they then showed footage of rangers fans outside a bar singing the billy boys with the line "up to our knees in fenian blood" clearly being heard before cutting the clip back to the reporter.to my knowledge this is one of the most famous sectarian songs known and i think it is offensive. they are there to enjoy themselves and support their team. what do youse think.
