    What does the club stand for, against my argument? If you're directing that towards me. Remember it's the same club who have banned our supporters. Are our club against our club as well? * me....I'm confused.

    I'm not going to pretend I'll ever force change but when someone questions my support because I've no political views or tells me I'm wrong because I don't support the same views as them... They are just as bad as the person they think I am.

    Or just think about what you're saying. Even Lawwell had the sense not to tweet: "Yes! 5 years of lower corporate taxes for the Celtic. Ya * dancer!"

    Nothing more than a piecemeal offering for vanity and I'd hazard a guess that many of those causes wouldn't require charity in a more equitable society.

    The second point is bang on. The first point may or may not be true. It's hard to know.

    How are those fines no political Summer ? When I say "political" I mean they have taken a decision to fine us when everyone of those probably happened numerous times over the games played at the same time and yet they chose to fine us. ( apart from the * UEFA banner which was obviously a response to our last political fine). I'm no saying they were biased fines but they are political as UEFA is a political institution.

    Well if you are vehemently against using a platform to shout down said inequity then I would say so.

    Politics encompass every part of our lives, including football. If one person's life is positively impacted by the GB's political stance, like one of their regular food bank drives to mitigate against Tory policy then any amount of beamers in the stand are worth it.

    In terms of positive impact and while I'm proud they said something, I think KMG had half a point earlier in saying more could have been achieved with something a bit more well thought out TBH.

    Something like a polite request for him to expand his charitable work to include food drives in Glasgow for the next 5 years.

    I think everyone would have got the implication and it might have had more of a positive effect.

    At any rate, it would definitely have been more difficult for the MSM to portray it as an abusive, neddish attack on someone who did nothing wrong (I had to Google what he said and so I saw that this is exactly how it is mostly being portrayed).

    Edit: still, at least they did something, which is more than I have. I guess they'd quite rightly tell me to go do my own protest instead of critiquing their strategy.

    "Why not accompany your protest by some appropriate "community singing"?"

    Boris Johnson is a narcissistic, racist, homophobic, sociopathic bag of *. Rod Stewart publicly congratulates said bag of * and his party on winning election, only a couple of weeks after having a dig at GB.

    Personally see no issue in telling him to * off.
