No tiger, I am expressing my opinion in a matter, not sitting in judgement, so who cares if it is one sided? Would you prefer if I posted an opinion that is not my own?

Why are you worried about me holding an opinion that is based in what I perceive to be the facts? It shouldn't diminish you or your opinion. Either you agree with it, or not. I certainly do not think less of anyone who thinks only of football and couldn't be bothered about politics, why would I? As I have said in so many posts in this thread, each to their own. As I explained earlier, this is actually one of the strengths of Celtic, the diversity of support, those who have a certain point of view and those who do not.

Why is this such a big issue for you? Again, where was I talking about anyone else? I thought you said you actually read my posts? Did you, or were you just saying that to appear as if you had some sort of merit behind your point? This is about opinions, not judgement, issues and not personalities. Catch a grip of yourself. :thumbs.up:

Oh and I like the colour as well. And football, and my fellow Celtic supporters, and the tunes, and the history, and the reasons for which we were formed, and the hoops, and the stadium, and the away support, and the politics.:thumbs.up:

Do I get my "uberfan" medal now?

I think it goes without saying that without the political element (small p) then there would be no point in following Celtic unless you liked the colour green.


of course its only your opinion as is mine but your statement above which includes the words =(it goes without saying) suggests to me that there is no POINT in your eyes me following celtic if i or other likewise supporter do not have aNY interest in the political side to celtic football club which i found offensive
but as youve stated whats the point

You found that opinion of mine offensive? Even when I was making a statement about myself? :unsure:

To me your statement is utterly ridiculous. I post my opinion based on what I see, so if you can find a way to find offence in how I think about something then I suppose that speaks volume about yourself. A wee bit like the thought police there, but, each to their own. As I keep saying, I am talking about myself, for myself, not passing judgement, but hey, why let that get in the way of a good moan? :thumbs.up:

The predominant voice for them is the intolerant and the predominant voice at Celtic is the tolerant. For me that is the political identity of Celtic today.

is this the point that your trying to stress

If you are a Celtic supporter, whatever your background, how could you not at least have a passing interest in the political side of the club and the support? :hmmm:
