I wasnt sure it was mentioned to me by a friend down the pub so wasnt sure the origins of it, but I love the meaning. As for the racist song (google the rest of the words to find out why I hate it so much) the people that sing and preach it are bigots and racists and for them to pass it off as 'banter' would be laughable if it wasnt so disgusting! The SFA and UEFA are spineless as are the majority of the Scottish media (G Speirs being an exception) as they are taking the line of yeah its just banter (see Jim Traynors article in the Daily Record). It seems that racisim and bigotry are both unacceptable unless its against a section of a society thats mainly white and have a large following of Irish descent!

Totally agree...then you will like this...
To be honest, I think your mocking of the disaster is scumbag-ish and I've told you so before, so don't pretend it's a surprise. The IRA is a whole other story. The IRA fought when there was a war, not a disaster. It's a totally different thing as well you know...
Love how the IRA are terrorists but the British who have killed thousands in Iraq, Afghanistan, Ireland, Germany and wherever else they've been fighting over the years are heroes...might is right I suppose...but then again, this thread is not about the IRA v Brits. Or Me v Anyone else.

I feel the IRA are a different matter and it does really annoy me to hear any IRA mentioned in songs being sung by my fellow Celtic supporters! I have never understood it and refuse to try and understand it, yes Eire may have had its 'Troubles' but they are finished with and shouldnt be brought up in the name of a Scottish club with a very proud Irish links/heritage. With regards to the bigoted and rascist songs being sung by the Rangers support, and no its not a small minority, they are scum for singing it and something drastic really needs to be done, perhaps a points deduction or a hefty fine but the authorities are spineless and wont do it!

Following on from my point about racisim seemingly being fine if its against a white scottish person with an irish heritage, there is a piece on James McCarthy (a 17yr old lad from Hamilton who decided to play for Ireland - He was told by the then youth boss of Scotland when he was 15 he wasnt going to make it as a pro footballer) and The Famine Song www.philmacgiollabhain.com/?p=79

If anybody is offended by the Hokey Cokey they must have a very restricted social life as you can hardly go to a function of any sort without it being played.

Gerry, is McGeady a left winger? According to some rumours we're supposed to be interested.

He is a left whinger!!! Would be sad to see him go but his talent deserves a bigger stage
