    Acknowledging it and condemning it is far better than ignoring it and pretending it dosent exist.

    Just dealing in the facts fella.

    The guy's other tweets would suggest he is not a Celtic fan. Should we just ignore that?

    Was just trying to make a point with that picture mate. Some people already pointing fingers at the huns when nothing is clear at this point. It might be a hun, but it just as well could be a Celtic supporter too.

    Just dont think we should close our eyes and turn the other way when something negative happens within our support. This is a supporters forum mate, cant just only discuss the possitives imo.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Who is saying it doesn't exist????

    Not me. In fact I have condemed the zoomers who have shown up the support in the past, but I'm not going to jump the shark on this one when the guy in question can't even get "Hail Hail" right.

    Nah, you may well be right. I cant even begin to imagine risking arrest and causing offence just to pretend to support another team so their fans get bad press. Mental but no doubt there are people out there. It is all beneath me to be honest, that is why I dont really care if it is a celtic fan or a rangers fan. Just another scumbag to me regardless.

    Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest as the guy is an absolute head case. Definitely a few sandwiches short of a picnic that one.

    Again, I will wait for the proof but it wouldn't surprise me.

    Whereas the huns have a long list of there offences we only have isolated incidents over a long period of time.

    Some people just seem happy to post negative stories about their fellow fans without really knowing the facts.

    not just talking about this thread exclusively btw.

    I've never understood the handwringing if I'm honest, I would back up a fellow tim in most situations.

    Where's the proof it was Celtic fans? If it was sectarian it would make more sense but with it being racist it could be absolutely anybody, considering an ICT player was abused as well.

    Cheers.

    I have to say that looking at the Twitter account linked to in this thread, it certainly looks like someone going out their way to be seen as being both a Celtic fan and a racist.

    Whatever the story though, the person responsible is a scumbag.
