100%He'd be chased out the door of the Cesspit nowadays.
When 49 District proposed the march in James Stokes VC's honour the filth abandoned the whole idea of honouring one of their own.the vile republican cesspit in the gorbals ,the brazen head , had/have a csc named after a vc winner leaving from the premises, incidentally this same war hero is remembered every year with a memorial parade by the the brothers/sisters in District 49
Aye bet he never had the poppy on st the dome. They bastards would be spitt on him.I used to work with a guy who was a Sergeant in the British army for years & was the organiser of his regiments reunion events & remembrance Sunday stuff.
He was a practising RC & a season ticket holder at the tattiedome.....
I kinda liked the guy
Just saying..
Haven't seen him for about 5 or 6 years , but actually he DID wear a poppy at the football when we worked together. Although he's getting on a bit now in his early 60's, he's quite an intimidating kind of guy , so god help anyone attempting to dig him up about it.Aye bet he never had the poppy on st the dome. They bastards would be spitt on him.
He played part of a trial game for them.Here is another winner of the VC who was on their books, though I don’t think he played for their 1st team.

As I said I don’t know if he played a 1st team game and knew he had played a trial game.He played part of a trial game for them.
He's also unusual in being presented to the crowd at both Ibrox and Parkhead on the same day!
Was very rarely the case in the past. New generation.Aye bet he never had the poppy on st the dome. They bastards would be spitt on him.
There's an old saying about 'He who controls the media...'.I genuinely believe we have made significant progress year on year with how we behave as a support but we receive no credit nor recognition in this dump of a country.
That lot have regressed significantly, they have never been more openly sectarian, racist, bigoted and politically driven than what they are today.
Anyone from the outside reading and listing to our government and media would be forgiven for thinking the reverse is true!
James Stokes VC, his story was actually serialised in The Victor comic back in the 70s.the vile republican cesspit in the gorbals ,the brazen head , had/have a csc named after a vc winner leaving from the premises, incidentally this same war hero is remembered every year with a memorial parade by the the brothers/sisters in District 49
the very manJames Stokes VC, his story was actually serialised in The Victor comic back in the 70s.
Stokes is on the front page of The Victor here.James Stokes VC, his story was actually serialised in The Victor comic back in the 70s.
Slight aside but your first paragraph says it all. A few years back the Daily Record had a full page and a half article on how wonderful The Fields of Athenry (sp?) as a song was. It contained the name of the writer and what it was based on but conveniently forgot to mention it's anti crown stance. Move on a few years and we have the magnificent Four Lads Had A Dream and I bet you they don't even know we sing it far less the wonderfully amazing story behind it.I genuinely believe we have made significant progress year on year with how we behave as a support but we receive no credit nor recognition in this dump of a country.

I've served with a few, and Queen and country came first.My own experience of Scottish RC's who join the services is that they very quickly buy into the ethos of Queen/King and country. Clearly that's not universal, but I've generally found it to be the case.
I consider her choice of football team ill advised.I work with a girl who is a troop leader in the girl guides. Has dedicated her life since she was a young girl to the guides.
Goes to church services, sings God Save the King etc. Very much a strong Unionist.
Season ticket holder for them.
I consider her a close friend.
I actually know a rabid who's old man was a paratrooper in the 2nd world war and a was awarded all sorts of medals for his actions. The rabid in question (a guy in his late 50s) despises the British Army and everything the UK stands for, also one of these arseholes who hated all things Scottish national team back in the 70 and 80s when we used to all go, now all of a sudden he loves the national team and everything Scottish in general, as he sees us getting independence away from the big bad Brits.

A horrible rat.
Did he maybe play for the Bhoys cub?I actually know a rabid who's old man was a paratrooper in the 2nd world war and a was awarded all sorts of medals for his actions.

Nah he is just another denier.Did he maybe play for the Bhoys cub?
Can relate to this and agree with it also.I served multiple tours in Northern Ireland, predominantly West Belfast and Crossmaglen. Always had a couple of beggars in my Multiple, all good men who despised the republican vermin.
Made me laugh when they were subjected to bigoted abuse, especially by scum wearing Celt*c tops on the Falls Road. Usually they just looked at me with a wry smile.

Would naming the bus after him not be honouring him?When 49 District proposed the march in James Stokes VC's honour the filth abandoned the whole idea of honouring one of their own.
Which showed up the sham of naming a bus after him in the first place.
