When Celtc Welcomed the Offensive Behaviour At Football Act

[monkey magic]

For years that horrible club and their press lackeys have tried to spin the lie that they always opposed this legislation.

The bold Liewell was part of the advance guard in welcoming its introduction.


See post # 3 for confirmation.

 

[Hurleyreyes]

"The type of behaviour intended to be covered by this legislation"

Unfortunately turned out to be not what we wanted.

CELTIC Football Club has today issued a statement in response to the introduction of legislation by the Scottish Government on the Offensive Behaviour at Football and Threatening Communications (Scotland) Bill.

Celtic Football Club Chief Executive, Peter Lawwell, commented: “Celtic Football Club welcomes the introduction of this legislation. The issues it seeks to address are problems for society as a whole and not just football.

"The type of behaviour intended to be covered by this legislation has no place anywhere in Scottish society."

 

[jimbear]

It was only when they discovered that the legislation was not solely intended for Rangers supporters that they did their U turn!

 

[Goggs21]

I would be quite confident in saying no other club in world football has the power to bring in acts of law against bigotry and then get them repealed when they are found to be the worse offenders
It’s quite disturbing the powers these bigots have in Scotland

 

[insanicdrunk]

The problem with laws, they get (or should get) used no matter the side that is offending. This was a law they wanted to get the dobs and bit them on the arse!

 

[buc11]

"But it wisnae meant for us bwahhhhhh"

 

[SecondBestIsNothing]

They even had their own lawyer in on it. They really thought they’d cracked it at the time and how they’ve re-written history (usual fae the usual) on it it’s hilarious.

I was writing a dissertation on Sectarianism in Scotland for my Adv. Higher Mod. Stud. class and their attitudes when I was writing that were very different to now.

Cheers, mate.

 

[GazzaG]

Fùck me sideways!

In the same statement, they acknowledge it's a societal problem, admit this behaviour has no place anywhere but welcomed laws that would be applied solely to football fans?

I suppose the get out for them is that they're not really a football club.
That's just a front for bigotry, terrorism and child abuse.

Not once have I heard anyone of prominence condemn these two-faced vermin on their original welcoming of the OBAF legislation.

 

[SW Bear]

The most amusing bit was spiers in the Scottish parliament saying that he was totally behind the bill and in fact - 'yes, some thoughts should be criminalised'

Fast forward a few months and he 'always had grave reservations about the legislation'

Shameless

Correct! They genuinely believed that it would only affect Rangers and they were literally bewildered when their own lot got dug up for it.
Then they set up that mob FAC to fight against it on behalf of “all” cough, cough clubs in Scotland. You couldn’t mark their neck with a blow torch.

This was the follow up to the "Old Firm Shame Game" summit with the the two chubby liars and Bain?

Check the fxxking state of Salmond - sucking up the photo opportunity oblivious to the hint of a smirk on Liewells face behind which the wheels are rapidly turning how he can spin this to his advantage. And Bain......just being Bain.

 

[Vinted]

Don't hold your breath that will never happen.
The Governments stand on not investigating football or religeous institutions says enough. Put that with cheap loans from the Coop. Getting Ground around Porkhead. Getting Lennoxtown for the price of a terraced house and getting Porkhead done up with taxpayers money from the Commenwealth games. That must tell you the political muscle behind them is far too strong. It would not even surprise me if the taxpayer has to foot the bill for any guilty verdicts on their side.

 

[bornabluenose]

Be careful what you wish for .

 

[kensington blue nose]

Have I missed something here?
What’s bringing this up… are they trying to get the law changed??

 

[Buffalobluebear]

They welcomed it because they thought the NATsis were on their side, because the tàrrier infested mhedia’s blanket negative coverage of our songs while their songbook and support of a terrorist group was ignored to keep Unckie Pete happy, and that it would never effect them only us

Then one of them learned to read and told the rest we might’ve fucked up here. So the brakes got tapped on support and they went into crisis we must condemn this legislation mode

 

[bigmalc]

Bit of an own goal there liewell!!

 

[Fourladshadadream]

Turkeys voting for Christmas.

 

[Jay1873]

If you don’t want to play the game then don’t make up the rules springs to mind. They thought this would be a one way street and once it came back and big them on the arse they wanted it gone

 

[temperance]

It was only when they discovered that the legislation was not solely intended for Rangers supporters that they did their U turn!

Isn’t this why they hate Higgins and don’t want him at the piggery, because his officer’s applied the legislation across the board, including the GB?

No comment on bottles no comment on orange bastards

Celtic are shameless

The problem was that the legislation was drafted by an idiot and on the back of a fag packet. Then after it was rushed through parliament, Strathclyde Police set up FOCUS which was inhabited by individuals from the old Gangs Task Force. This unit was designed for retrospective enquiry for wee neds cutting about Glasgow at the weekend tooled up and caught on public space CCTV.

Now, instead of education, they start rattling and going through doors at 5 in the morning, normally young kids/men for singing a daft song. These cops didn't have the brains for trying to be a bit more lenient or indeed compassionate.

The vast majority of arrests were Rangers supporters because some of the songbook were more in your face, rather than the IRA glorifying of the Tims. Police were too stupid to know what was being sung but some got the jail hence she became involved.
