It is a derogatory word for catholics. It is quite offensive aswell wehn people use it in that context.
I don't know if you can hear it clealy but they are saying. "The famine is over, why don't you go home"
This song is quite derogatory
Some of the lyrics are quite frankly shocking. "They have brought us nothing but shame", come one
Some celtic fans are bad for it aswell though. Saying up the RA and i support the IRA, just brings shame to the other supporters who spend their money to go and watch the team play

Yeah, like that. You develop a hard skin being a football supporter in Scotland. I got Greif in School for being catholic off of idiots. Never as much a bullying as i am not actually Irish but my mum's relatives are. That's why i say i have heard worse things than i do on here.
However if you say, 60 000 people going to Celtic Park on a saturday. Less than 5% of that will be racist and sectarianist
If you watch the videos above, you can see why people would get upset by it. Rangers have been fined a few times for sectarianism, but it is not just them. I have heard some bad things from celtic fans aswell

I know how it is to be bullied, but I wasn't bullied for my beliefs, or which team I supported, I was bullied for my length.
I guess it's similar to the 'n' word, using it is a reminder to the days when blacks were enslaved by whites and similarly anti-Catholic slogans are a reminder of past Protestant oppression and rule over the Catholics. There is no word that blacks could use against whites or that Catholics could use against Protestants that would cause similar offense because of the historical fact that were the ones dominated/ruled over.
Boruc probably didn't understand why praying could cause such offense as in principle Britain is a multicultural society but the Rangers fans probably assumed he was doing it to wind them up eventhough he isn't Irish and probably not an IRA sympathiser
I never really considered it bullying because it was only about celtic and every celtic fan got it like that.You would only really hear it after an old firm game so i had quite a happy school life, i am like 6'1 though, so maybe they were scared to pick on me in school. That was the time when Martin Oneil and Larsson were their though, So all you had to say was we won the league or whatever and they had no real comback to that
Celtic fans loved him because he hated rangers. We called him the holy goalie. Most 'real' rangers fans don't sing them now a days because they know that a fine could make them bankrupt. I have friends that are rangers supporters and my *** supports rangers. There is always a little bit of me that hates them for that. As i **** all rangers fans. But i don't actually **** them and i certainly don't **** my ***, most rangers fans are great people apart from the whole Rangers thing. I **** that football team because it is the rival team but that doesn't mean i can't be friends with rangers supporters. You can get some great friendly arguments going, which is fun
That's probably because the rivalry depicts the religious divide, unlike most derbies the insults ain't about which part of town your from from but rather what religion you follow which has no bearing on football whatsoever. Hopefully all this bigotry will eventually die out because people are simply becoming less and less 'Christian' to the extent they won't even care anymore who is what religion. Loads of Irish people appear on British TV etc and the Brits generally love them and them being Catholic or not is irrelevant but unfortunately there is still a loud minority of bigots to be found in Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland but their days are numbered.

I think it is mostly to do with football aswell. There will be bigots at football that will be fine with Irish people during the week and then at the weekend they will just join in. It has always been the minority that amount of bigotry. You only tend to hear that stuff in the old firm games because those games are huge and emotions run high, as the old fim games often decides what end of Glasgow the tilte ends up in. Say if Celtic lost to a bottom of the table team people would prefer that to losing to rangers, even though it looks better to lose to rangers than it does to anyone else as they are a better team. If you lose an old firm game in Scotland it is one of the worst feeling you can have. It feels 100 times worse than just losing any other game. The old firm games are huge here and emotions do run high ass this video shows
I don't know if people in England heard about it but that was when a meeting was called to talk about the rivalry. It is just football, it does mean a lot to everyone, but people shouldn't lose their lives over it
