    - this song , has crept back in to our away games lately, and i think it's one we should avoid. The non-catholic fans, either ours or others may find it offensive and it doesnt do the club any favours, - giving the impression that we are just as bad as the huns.
    Please agree !!

    Even as a "protestant" I dont actually find it offensive, but the fact is talks up one religious group, and puts down another is hunnish behaviour.

    should be kept to sing against rangers only. to alienate there support and not our own or any other team.

    it is a sectarian song no two ways about it and 2 wrongs dont make a right but it getting belted out at parkhead on sunday would wind them up no end

    Away and *! This is one of the main reason's why parhead has a * atmosphere these day's because we can't sing what the * we want. I honestly hate and detest these thread's. We have been singing them song's for year's and every since the politican's got involved our stadium is just becoming like anyother stadium around the u.k

    :50:*...this old chestnut again!

    I've already aired my views on this song in an over-drawn thread.

    The song does NOT say anything negative about any other sects or religions.....just that it's good to be a Catholic, so no matter what way it's spun by some, there is * all wrong with that!

    Secondly...secterian my *! Why? because it says * King Billy and John Knox? * them indeed, two of whom are Catholic murderers and planners of Catholic genecide...so yes * them indeed!!!!!!!!

    RITG:50::50::50: I'll sing it all day long, wherever and whenever I want.

    see below:

    I was walking along when i seen a bunch of huns
    Banging drums and playing flutes those dirty orange scum
    The stench of pish and * eminated from their wifes
    Oh thank * that im a roman catholic

    Roamin in the gloaming with a shamrock in my hand
    Roamin in the Gloaming with st patricks * band
    And when the music stops
    * king billy and John knox.
    Oh its good to be a roman catholic.

    I decided to follow the direction they would head.
    When i heard the huns say * the pope and i saw * red.
    I took his drum stick from his hand and put his face against the grass.
    I turned and said * Bless The Pope and shoved it up his *.


    Roamin in the gloaming with a shamrock in my hand
    Roamin in the Gloaming with st patricks * band
    And when the music stops
    * king billy and John knox.
    Oh its good to be a roman catholic.

    Well they started to chase as i ran down past the shops,
    Big hairy * with 5 bellies and kebab stains down there tops
    But soon they tired out and too those * i did shout.
    * your queen and * your orange marches


    Roamin in the gloaming with a shamrock in my hand
    Roamin in the Gloaming with st patricks * band
    And when the music stops
    * king billy and John knox.
    Oh its good to be a roman catholic.

    Well the next time your passing an orange hun brigade
    Tell those * what you think and never be afraid.
    Because us tims know best
    and so do all the rest
    They just wish that they were roman catholics.

    I agree.Personally i'm not offended by the song.* King Billy and John Knox,two of the most sectarian men that have ever set foot in Scotland.It doesn't put down any religion either,it puts down bigots like the orangemen.

    Thanks for that mate....i was well aware of how the song goes:50:

    My point being, it does NOT mention any other religios sects....unless you classify "Hun" and "Orange" as one:87:

    But this song isn't singing about Protestants.Being a member of the sectarian orange lodge is very different from being a Protestant.Maybe you can't tell the difference.

    I honestly dont give a *,
    Why do you tink we have one of the greatest derby's in the world because of the hatered we have for each other . People like you need to get a grip and give your head a shake because your destroying our great derby. Soon enough if people like you get your way then we wont even be aloud to stick our finger's up at them orange *. I hate everything todo with them * , have done ever since i was a child and will continue to do so untill teh day i die. I always wish that our derby would get back to teh levels it was back in teh 80's but sadly people like you an dthem bullroot politicans are destroying our atmosphere.

    This quote from people like yourself really does my * in....

    Attempting to even compare ANY of the songs we sing to the songs they sing about murdering Catholics, tims, fenians, Irishmen, glorifying peadophilia, accusations against OUR legends of harbouring peadophile's........

    Get a * grip and following the medja spun version that we are just as bad as them:31::31::31::31:

    P.S....Whilst i sing songs about the team when I go to the footie....I'll sing whatever the * I like also......including RITG etc:bbpd::bbpd:
