    Gave an excellent Interview was more than happy to see it as main headline on six o'clock news.... If anything this has made some sections of the hearts support realise they have a bad element don't know why it's tools this long more ignorance than anything else plus it highlights the fact that their is still that racism to Irish Catholic background and culture to the point I refuse to put down my own background religion down on a job application especially since a bitter orange masonic * is my union rep at work and was all over the news for threatening students who filmed his sash bash

    watched the ''debate'' on sky sport earlier with charlie nick a 2 others, gave a long talk about what happened to neil lennon and how shameful it was. one of the striking things ommited from the debate was the word racism, strange i thought, considering neil lennon brought that up as the main reason for the treatment he's suffered over the years.
    they'll never sort this issue unless they can utter that nasty word. i suppose sectarianism seems to be a more sanetized word to our ears than calling it what it is, Racism.

    People slag Phil MacGiollabhain but his book 'Minority Reporter' laid bare Scotland's problem with anti-Catholic sectarianism and anti-Irish racism.

    When they call it sectarianism they can roll out the "one is as bad as the other" and the "2 sides of the same coin" cliches.This makes it more acceptable in the only getting what you give line of thinking. So in a twisted way the * brings it on himself.

    Neil should have added in his interview that the SFA should be doing something about this.
    They scum are just waiting for a hun to get hurt so they can punish Celtic and their supporters.

    Well done Lenny for calling it rascism.
    Hopefully it may be a turning point in this country but don’t hold your breath on it .

    He was my favourite player when he was at Celtic. I loved having him as our manager, and like yourself mate, didn't think I could love him anymore than I did, but today, I stand corrected.

    Aye, stuck in the 1800's. Closing major roads and bringing city centre's to a standstill to allow bigoted scumbags to harass and intimidate anybody that isn't a white protestant.

    They can try and paint the place as progressive all they like, but until this nonsense is put to bed it will never stand a chance of ridding itself of the backward, neanderthal element within it's society.

    Breeding ground for hate.

    That's before you even scratch the surface of the deep rooted anti-Irish hate that's embedded from top to bottom.
